There’s just two weeks left to view Turn the Page: The First Ten Years of Hi-Fructose an exclusive exhibition featuring more than 50 world-renowned artists such as Ron English, Shepard Fairey, Camille Rose Garcia, James Jean, Yoshitomo Nara, Mark Ryden, Todd Schorr, Wayne White, Kehinde Wiley, and others that have never been shown collectively at once. This once-in-a-lifetime exhibition ends December 31 at the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) located in Virginia Beach.

This MOCA-curated retrospective celebrates the ten-year anniversary of the new contemporary art magazine Hi-Fructose. Ten years ago, two San-Francisco-based artists, Annie Owens-Seifert and Daniel “Attaboy” Seifert started an art magazine to share the type of art they loved. Over the years, Hi-Fructose magazine has become an influential publication with a devoted international readership, celebrating diverse art that transcends genres from artists who break away from conventional trends.

Hi-Fructose and MOCA have featured some of the same artists over the years so the museum was a great fit to host this unprecedented exhibition that other regions in the U.S. are about to enjoy. Turn the Page will travel to the Akron Art Museum (Akron, Ohio, February 10-May 7, 2017) and then to the Crocker Art Museum (Sacramento, California, June 11-September 17, 2017) before traveling to another location to-be-determined. Please visit virginiamoca.org for more information.
