Isamar Medina curated the first version of this show in a DIY space in 2018 after being inspired by shows at galleries in L.A. where artists would create small, unique and affordable works. Shows like these were all about accessibility and community. The Slaps Show brings together artists from a multitude of backgrounds and levels, all creating pieces on priority mail labels and sold for the same price point of $40. This unique exhibition allows for first time collectors to acquire a piece by an artist whose price points may normally be out of reach. For Isamar, affordability is the most important part of curating this show. “I, like many people, grew up with parents who didn’t collect art. I don’t think it even crossed their mind. So, I can understand how it can be intimidating for people who never had art growing up to get into collecting art. It’s important to support our creatives because a lot of them grew up in these households too and they should know there are people who love their work and want to support what they do.” - Isamar
