On October 26th, Secret Walls will present “The Art Of Competition” at the No One Home venue, co-founded by former U.S. soccer player Kyle Martino. The event will also feature their art education platform, SW Academy.
“The Art of Competition” Tour promises to be an electrifying, adrenaline-filled interactive rush of creative spirit. Come watch, cheer, and participate in the exciting paint battles touring the country. See the art being made, feel the pressure of the clock ticking down and the live competition pushing each other further, vote for the winning team and witness the limitless bounds of creativity.
“With four sold out shows completed, we are thrilled to return to New York and continue the tour in the city that never sleeps. Additionally, we are bringing the SW Academy to NYC with Classic Football Shirts, seeking to empower new emerging artists. The sights, sounds, and excitement will be contagious as our exciting and innovative artists and amazing partners create an epic battleground.” – Terry Guy, Founder.
Starring Jason Naylor, Lamour Supreme, Ross Pino and Jappy Agoncillo, the New York-based artists will be divided into teams and provided POSCA paint markers, paint brushes, spray paint, and paint rollers to showcase their work against a giant wall as their canvas. With only 90 minutes to ideate and complete their piece, the teams face-off against each other in a frantic adrenaline rush energized by the cheers of the crowds. Special guest judges – and a decibel meter measuring audience reaction – will help determine the winner of each battle.
All of this action will be hosted by Che Anderson, supported by live sounds from amazing local DJ Gianni Lee, and will be accompanied by exciting interactive brand experiences.
