Good art is good art, whether it\u2019s done on an album cover, a skateboard, canvas, or found cardboard.\u201d \u2013 Shepard Fairey Subliminal Projects is a multi-functional project space and gallery established by Shepard Fairey and Blaize Blouin in 1995 as a way to introduce skateboard culture and design to the art world. The concept grew and found roots later in Los Angeles, at a time when many artists found themselves shut out by the \u201cart scene.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Subliminal Projects emerged as a gallery that championed emerging and marginalized artists, built out of cultural importance to serve as a center for the community to openly express and spark dialogue about art, music and activism. Now located in the historic neighborhood of Echo Park, Subliminal Projects continues to offer a platform for artistic exploration and innovation. \u00a0 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on Subliminal Projects, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/newsletter.obeygiant.com\/l\/jn317631kDmia02LdoYHcIVQ\/6D4vXg1JqP1YR1gBU40l5g\/BthCVg7cCmrIQLiXbmtCWQ\">subliminalprojects.com<\/a> or follow us on Instagram <a href=\"https:\/\/newsletter.obeygiant.com\/l\/jn317631kDmia02LdoYHcIVQ\/T5MLxqHhUaWcXi46pD1O6Q\/BthCVg7cCmrIQLiXbmtCWQ\">@subliminalprojects<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Subliminal Projects is located at 1331 W.
