FRINGE09@DAF106

You can make money out of art so why not make art out of money? Ruby Nekk has created the art brand BASH for Fringe 09 using this question as a muse. Come and swap your cash for a little bit of bash – you’ve got nothing to lose!

At the opening of BASH there will be a raffle for a $100 note. 100 Tickets will be $1 each. The raffle will run throughout the BASH exhibition. The winner will be drawn on the opening night of EGO at daf106 on Tuesday 17th February.

Bash is Produced by Dr Shopper (Bottled (s)Words – Fringe 08 and W.ART – FRINGE08@DAF106) and features the art of Ruby Nekk (PhotoChop II, Into Black).
