Cat Art Show 2018 Press Round-Up (Updated)

January 11, 2021

“What amazed me most about The Cat Art Show 3 was that most (if not quite all) of the artists on view rose to the challenge of mining those observations and inspirations with considerable originality, verve, virtuosity, and even brilliance. There were some 140 works on view and one was drawn in for a close look at almost all of them. This is not something to be expected, even in a museum show.” - Artillery Magazine

“After dazzling cat and art lovers alike in 2014 and again in 2016, Cat Art Show is ready to land in Los Angeles for a third time. The June exhibition, dubbed Cat Art Show 3: The Sequel Returns Again, will feature feline-centric works from such artists as Mark Ryden, Ellen von Unwerth, and Marion Peck.” - Mental Floss

"Part of what I do is debunk the cat lady myth," Michals says. "You've got people like Taylor Swift, Kate Walsh, Katy Perry and AnnaLynne McCord — and then on the man's side, Ed Sheeran and Ian Somerhalder and James and Dave Franco — saying how much they love kitties. So the idea of the old-school Grey Gardens hoarder, spinster cat lady is still very prevalent, but with things like Cat Art Show and CatCon, I'm trying to change that.” - The Hollywood Reporter

“…the show feels like a real art show because it is a real art show. Over 140 pieces were on display in the gallery…Hundreds of self-proclaimed cat people gathered in downtown Los Angeles on Thursday night for the opening of Cat Art Show, a gallery of multimedia pieces that share one theme: love of cats.” - Mashable

“Cat Art Show has grown over the years, now featuring more artworks than ever before. While they saw some 4,500 guests in 2014, Michals says they’re expecting about 10,000 visitors over the course of this year’s 10-day run.” - We Like LA

Cat Art Show 2016 Press Round-Up

March 30, 2016

“Perhaps the most surprising participant to join this year’s roster is actor Norman Reedus, who plays fan-favorite character Daryl Dixon from the hit TV show the “The Walking Dead.” It turns out that when Reedus isn’t hacking away at zombies, he’s busy creating paintings and photos—sometimes involving feline friends.” – Artnet

“Cats with wings, cats jumping on beds, cats adjacent to disco-cool mirrorballs, cats baking bread, and cats in elegant repose fill the dreamlike painting- and photo-scapes of some of the works.” – NBC Los Angeles

“How Amanda Seyfried became Mark Ryden’s muse” – Los Angeles Times

“‘Walking Dead’s’ Norman Reedus and cat art? We’re there!” – USA Today

“Cat Art Show is returning to Downtown Los Angeles at the end of March with works from more than 70 artists that range from striking paintings to meme-like parodies.” – Time Out

“Cat Art Show LA 2: The Sequel is the much anticipated follow-up to ‘Cat Art Show Los Angeles,’ which took place last year and drew almost 5,000 visitors over a four-day run.” – Los Angeles Times

“Cat Art Show L.A. Is Back and It’s Purrfect” – L.A. Weekly

“In 2014, the first-ever Cat Art Show Los Angeles brought in well-known artists like Tracey Emin to depict the wonders of the feline form. Two years later, the event is back and even more a-meow-zing than ever.” – Mental Floss

“Cat Art Show Turns Your Favorite Internet Meme Into Muse” – Huffington Post

“Patrick Swayze with a cat, and other paintings you will see at L.A.’s second annual Cat Art Show” – LA Times

“Art scene gets catty in L.A.” – CBS News

“LA’s epic cat art show returns this month, will feature a feline history lesson” – Racked LA

“This year, the Cat Art Show will feature work by tattoo artist Kat Von D, pop surrealist master Mark Ryden, celeb photographer Mick Rock and ‘Walking Dead’ sexpot Norman Reedus. Inspired by our ancient ties to cats, the show is meant to provoke, nurture and inspire our feline side.” – Elite Daily

“Cat Art Show LA—the Los Angeles-based art exhibit that surprised locals by drawing thousands of visitors when it debuted in 2014—is coming back for a second year in March, 2016. ” – Artillery

“Cat Art Show LA 2: The Sequel features more than 70 globally ­recognized artists including Mark Ryden, Kat Von D, Norman Reedus, Marc Dennis, Travis Lampe, Walter Chandoha, Mick Rock, and Adam Wallacavage, among others.”- Foxes Magazine

“The cats… are back. The original Cat Art Show LA drew thousands in 2014 and this year might just be bigger.” – We Like L.A.

“Soon the worlds of cats and art will collide in a spectacular display of cat-inspired artwork.” – The Catnip Times

“Michals is at the forefront of cats and culture. In 2015 she produced CatConLA, which drew some 12,000 attendees, remarkable for any event, and even more so for one in its first year.” – Catster

“With a movie-like title, Cat Art Show LA 2: The Sequel has attracted an impressive roster of artists for a show running March 24-27 at the Think Tank Gallery.” – Pursuitist

“The feline frenzy strikes again. Opening March 24, Think Tank Gallery will feature Cat Art Show LA 2: The Sequel, the second annual art collection of our favorite fur-balls.” – Yay! LA

“Cat Art Show LA: The Sequel will bring feline-inspired works under one roof, to follow the success of the first cat masterpiece showcase.” – Petcha

“With just one week until the opening reception, Cat Art Show LA 2: The Sequel continues to add to its already impressive roster of artists. Mark Ryden has announced a painting that will be on view for the first time. Photographer Rich Hardcastle has collaborated with Ricky Gervais to produce a photographic print as well.” – Juxtapoz

"The big draw this year is Walter Chandoha, long-time cat photographer. 'He’s the godfather of cat art!' Michals says. His 'Five Kittens' photo will be on display. This piece has never been available for sale to the general public, ever.'" – Cat Channel

“The inaugural Cat Art Show LA was a huge success and garnered national attention. The show was featured in numerous media outlets including Buzzfeed, Time, CNN and NPR, among others.” – Conscious Cat

“After a successfully fluffy debut in 2014, Cat Art Show LA is back.” – L.A. Taco

“On opening night, there was a line out the door and down the street to get into this salon-style exhibition.” – Crave

“What do Luke Chueh, Martin Hsu, Charlie Becker, and Tim Biskup have in common? They, along with a ton of other amazing artists like Mark Ryden and Travis Lampe are taking part in Cat Art Show LA 2: The Sequel at Think Tank Gallery.” – Clutter

“Opening to lines around the block, the Cat Art Show focused once more the cat – our domesticated companion and internet meme – as muse.” – Hijinx
