INAUGURAL TATTOO FLASH CALENDAR 2008 RELEASED TODAY BY EMPIRE CITY PRESS

Brooklyn, NY, May 17, 2007 —Empire City Press is releasing the first of a series of tattoo flash art calendars for sale to the general public at tonight’s opening of the NYC Upstarts Artshow at Saved Tattoo and Art Gallery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Compiled by New York tattoo artist Alex McWatt, each month displays an original work of flash from the current generation of tattoo artists. The calendar is a collection of 12 fine reprints showcasing original watercolor paintings and illustrations from artists around the globe including Dave Cummings (Canada), Bas Kahle (Netherlands), Braden Kendall (Philadelphia), Sento (Spain), and Dan Trocchio (New York). Several original paintings and illustrations from the calendar will be on display at Saved Tattoo and Art Gallery this month.
Calendars will also be available at the 10th Annual New York City Tattoo Convention this weekend at the Fly Rite Tattoo booth. Limited press runs of the calendar will be made. This calendar and other projects from Empire City Press will be available online later this year at www.empirecitypress.com.

This is the premiere release from Empire City Press, a new publishing company devoted to the documentation of current movements in art and culture, capturing and preserving the authenticity of a particular genre, theme, or perspective.
