Visual Arts Too many Folk Art Fest photos
Posted by Marc Schultz on Tue, Aug 24, 2010 at 3:11 PM
The 17th annual Slotin Folk Art Fest rolled into town this past weekend at the North Atlanta Trade Center, up I-85 a piece in Norcross. As always, it was an overwhelming experience, ultracrowded with the colorful work of self-taught, outsider, visionary and otherwise artists, along with the folks who love to collect (and sell) their work. Herewith is a (very) small sample of what was on display. In the coming weeks, we'll be taking a closer look at these and other folk artists, along with where you can find their stuff for sale in the Atlanta area.

'Dexter' Season 6, Ep. 13 11
This is the way Dexter ends: not with a bang, but with a series of boring chases, preposterous coincidences, and an intriguing (but wholly predictable) last-second revelation that is not necessarily too little, but is far, far too late.
