Foreign Beats by Seymor
“It’s pretty much spread out,” says Brandon Bogues, coordinator of the Urbane Art Show, which takes place from noon to midnight on Wednesday at the Urbane Underground at Urbane on Washington. “It’s vaudevillian, but not a circus. Unlike mainstream shows, there’s nothing we’re doing that’s driven by money.
The show features works by painters Jason Abraham Smith (AKA Jazz Handz), Jonathan J. Sandberg (AKA Seymor), Marcus, Mark Tice, David Derue, Larry Farely, Becky Sase and Jaclyn King; textile art by Sitara Bird; a video installation by Get Super Rad; and photography by Samantha Hodges, Nic Boileau, and the trio of Joshua Hanford, Alvyn Maranan and John B., better known as Detroit Exposure. There will also be slam poetry by Lianna and electronic music by Jaws That Bite.

“We’re a collective that focuses on lifestyle photography, destinations and our travels,” Hanford says. “It’s wherever the world takes us, but we’re based here. When we started the collective back in 2008, when I told people where I was from, all the bad things spilled out of them. There are a lot of things people don’t know about. We capture the beautiful things most people miss.”
Urbane on Washington is located at 310 W. Sixth Street in Royal Oak.
