“Toy (Re)Collections" group art show @ Lulubell Toy Bodega on 6/5/2010

[PRESS] Everyone has some sort of history with toys. Whether they only played with them as a child, collect licensed product tie-ins, or create custom vinyl themselves, everyone has a personal story connected to a favorite piece of plastic. Opening next Saturday, June 5th, Lulubell Toy Bodega in Tucson, AZ, is going to celebrate everything mold injected with their month-long gallery exhibition titled “Toy (Re)Collections". Join Lulubell from 6 to 9 PM as they exhibit over 25 of the most exciting and cutting edge voices in the toy world.

Exhibiting artists include:
Frank Kozik, Coarse, UAMOU, Lunabee, Spencer Hibert, Dehara, Bwana Spoons, Aaron Boy, Bert S. Gatchalian, Cris Rose, Tone Tank & Scumlife, jcat, Layron DeJarnette, Suckadelic, Toybot Studios, Mad Barbarians, MONSTREHERO, Nerderella, Paul Kaiju, VELOCITRON, Mark Nagata, Julie B, Futureman 未来男, Kenzo Butler, and many more!

The exhibit will cover the entire spectrum from completely one-of-a-kind toys and customized vinyl, photographs and paintings, collection shots and prototypes. The idea behind this show is to really learn what each artist's personal history is with these fascinating things we call "toys" and to really hear the stories behind the people who make it happen.
