Every now and then, us art-y folk tend to take things a little too seriously. In honour of April Fool’s Day, we’ve rounded up four times the art world got totally punk’d for a good giggle!

Real talk: Female representation in the arts sucks. So this year, Third Drawer Down is calling for #BalanceForBetter. 

Accessibility has always been something we’ve drawn focus on at Third Drawer Down, to work with something as evocative, exciting and important as art, and providing a platform for all to enjoy it is what we do best!

This is Hi Art! 

Recently our Cindy Sherman Oops Phone Float got her selfie on in the heart of the Big Apple, where we met up with our friend Olympian Kim Vandenberg.

San Jose born, Chris Johanson spent a great deal of his formative years in the San Francisco skate and punk scenes. He shortly became associated with the Mission School movement in the 1990s to 2000s, making zines, designing concert posters and painting skateboards. Johanson’s self-taught style stemmed from this time and continue to shape his works today.

We took five to shed some light on this talented and warm soul. Time to get Jiggy with Johanson.
