Since New Era's release three months ago, the reception the slashTHREE staff and artists have received for this project has been mind-blowing. It was on show at OFFF 2011, as well as SIGGRAPH 2011 and on our very own online shop. We are proud to report that the “New Era” books have been completely sold out, and we would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for the overwhelming amount of support.
Today however, the collective proudly unveils its seventeenth exhibition, an exhibition in which the artists were asked to reflect on some of the literature that inspires them in their daily lives. Each piece in “Quote/Unquote” is based on a quote – famous, cultural, or even from the artist’s own life – and is created to represent that quote and its meaning to the artist. The result is a library of 60 of the collective’s finest and most personally meaningful works to date.
Just before the New Era project was launched, slashTHREE welcomed Tarin Yuangtrakul, a 19 year old artist from Thailand. Tarin’s impact on the collective was instantaneous, and his two submissions to “Quote/Unquote” demonstrate the progress he has made as an artist since joining the collective, and showed true dedication to the exhibition. Tarin’s sublime mixture of traditional and digital art was something new which captivated the entire artist core. Tarin Yuangtrakul has become not only the first traditional artist to be named as the “featured artist” for a slashTHREE exhibition, but also the youngest artist in slashTHREE’s history to receive the honour. Site Director Saad Moosajee sat down with Tarin to discuss life and art; you can read the interview here.

Since the release of ‘Paradigm Shift’ and our new website, the SlashTHREE collective has been working feverishly on several new projects. The first of which, dubbed the “New Era” project, has been one of the most ambitious and well received in the collective’s history. We were humbled by the invitation to present at this years OFFFestival in Barcelona where we unveiled 'New Era' for the first time.
The project showcases 21 never before seen pieces in addition to 20 'classics' from the last several exhibitions we have dubbed the 'hertigage' section. The book is available now for pre-order in our online shop and will be offered at a discounted rate of $15.00 (50% off) through July 16th so be sure to pick up a copy right away! Additionally, we are formally releasing the project as our 16th exhibition available to view on our website.
A special thanks to Sorin Bechira, Saad Moosajee, Diego L. Rodriguez, Luis Miguel Torres, and our sponsors MAXON and Proof7 who guided the project from concept to print.
With out further ado we proudly present New Era.
Thank you,
SlashTHREE Public Relations
