Rhizome Rises

New media art champion and and preservation focused non-profit institution Rhizome hosted its 30th Anniversary Benefit in NYC, honoring artists Snowfro and Skawennati.

The effort raised more than $250,000, in part due to live auctioned works from artists Casey Reas, Evil Biscuit, Jennifer and Kevin McCoy, LoVid, and Tyler Hobbs.
