“Asvariant 2” by Derek Lerner documented in art studio 2022-10-09
“Ponce De Leon, constantly on. The fountain of youth, not Robotron”
When I moved from JAX FLA to Atlanta in the early 90’s I was addicted to graffiti and ended up painting a lot with my good friend from high school Ryan Coleman whom I’ve remained tight with to this day. These pieces were painted at a yard named “The Lot” which was tucked away just off Ponce De Leon Ave. (AKA Ponce).
Obviously this posts title are lyrics by written by Beastie Boys – The Sounds of Science… however I plan to learn more about Juan Ponce de León.
Note:
How would you handle a situation like this?
An interior design company based in Russia took images of my art they found online and made large prints, hanging them in their office as well as in completed spaces designed for their clients, all without my permission.
They are not the first to have done this sort of thing.

An empty Space to fill, a group show curated by artist William Downs
Exhibition Dates: December 18 – January 15, 2022
SANDLER HUDSON GALLERY 1000 MARIETTA ST. NW, SUITE 116 ATLANTA, GA 30318
Sandler Hudson Gallery is pleased to announce the upcoming group show curated by represented artist William Downs.
Sandler Hudson Gallery is an empty space where I’m bringing together a group of artists from all over the United States that I’ve met through my travels or who are within a five mile radius of my life. An empty space is a place where artists feel with their thoughts, dreams, anxieties, emotions, and compositions. An empty space is where an artist creates their magic. Mark-making and color is used by all of these artists as a way of channeling their physical and mental gestures into work that makes you feel something.
The show will include work from the following artists:
Krista Clark (Atlanta)
Elizabeth Ferrill (Colorado)
Michael Jones (Atlanta)
Gracelee Lawrence (New York)
Derek Lerner (New York)
Ash McNamara (Atlanta)
Michi Meko (Atlanta)
Michael Reese (Atlanta)
Marc Aundre Robinson (New York)
Tim Short (Atlanta)
Jason Sweet (Atlanta)
Scott Taylor (Los Angeles)
