Art Battle Returns to Brooklyn

On Thursday, August 22nd 2019, at The House of Yes, twelve of the Brooklyn area's best artists will be competing across three fast-paced rounds for audience votes and a chance to enter this year's Art Battle National Tournament.

The audience will circle the competitors in each round, and choose their favorite powerhouse painter to move forward.

After the Final Round, only one Champion will remain! Audience members can take home a piece of the action while joining in on the competitive fun by bidding on their favorite paintings in the silent auction.

These competitors are a mix of veteran professional artists and emerging talents who want to share their process and talent with a new audience.

Featured painters include first time Battler Matthew Rentz, who believes their artistic "style [will] feed off the crowd's energy," and veteran competitor, Kristyn Watterworth, who enjoys "the pressure and the spectacle" of painting in the spotlight. Art Battle invites culture enthusiasts, painters, art collectors, art party lovers, and the entire Brooklyn community to join the experience and vote for the next Art Battle Champion!

Today, across the country and around the globe, we celebrate live talent by turning a blank canvas into a work of art.
