Publisher’s Note
This month’s issue of ARTBORNE features the works of Orlando icon
Andrew Spear, the satirical representations of Kieran Castaño, and the
discarded and destructive works of Forrest MacDonald. Months like
these, where we combine the works of established Orlando icons with
the works of talented emerging artists, we do so with the purpose of
curating a publication that places Orlando as a serious player in the
regional arts scene.
In his interview with Kyle Eagle, Andrew Spear says, “When your ego
gets involved is when you get sloppy and it gets in the way. You stop
producing.” With summer approaching, Orlando winds down as the
universities release their students, and corporations dole out employee
vacations. Spring has offi cially arrived, and with it, the last few festivals
before the new arts season in the fall. Don’t get lazy, Orlando.
During the months of June, July, and August, we’ll be covering the art
scenes throughout Tampa, St. Petersburg, Miami, St. Augustine, and
Gainesville. We look forward to inspiring readers as we introduce a
sampling of the talent throughout the Sunshine State.
I would like to announce the beginnings of the the next step in
ARTBORNE’s evolution. We’re honored and proud to announce that
Avatar Company has taken ARTBORNE on as a client in our efforts
to establish our non-profi t branch, Artborne Contemporary. I look
forward to sharing our complete vision next month.
