Works in this show did not use the usual media that The Shadow usually brings to you. This show gives new meaning to the words "mixed media".

In the words of Matt McKinkey, Chief Curator, this exhibit is :

An all media exhibit focused on artists exploring new techniques material usage. Rather than declaring "Painting is Dead!", the impetus of the innovative artist is to continue to expand the capabilities of what their chosen materials can do by incorporating new techniques in applications, consistency, combination with other materials or, for the technologically inclined, exploring the capabilities of computer programs and applications. This exhibit is for today's vanguards of artist innovation!
