Seen: Kii Arens - La*La Art Show and Launch Party @ Munky King (09.28.06)

Kii Arens kept Munky King packed for several hours this past Thursday (09.28.06) for his solo art show and launch event for the new La*La toy.  Kii is probably best known for his lightbox art which was on display and available for sale ranging from large panoramic scenes to smaller mono color  creature-blots.  The event also served as the launch of his tripod like La*La toy produced by Munky King.  La*La comes in red, black, white, and an MK exclusive flocked pink.  The two standout features are the battery powered light-up "eye" and the magnetic feet which were put to good effect with several La*La's clinging to the ceiling of the darkened gallery -- all the better to appreciate the lightbox art and the glowing eyes.  Another artistic passion of Kii's is Spin art, the origin of the La*La shape; it's fitting then that there was a live Spin art station for folks to make their own masterpieces.    Enjoy the pics!  Props to Kii Arens, Patrick Lam and the Munky King Melrose Staff for a great relaxed night of art.

Kii is truly a good egg (and the art is top shelf too!). Congrats Kii!
