This past March, we at Super Art Fight had the honor and pleasure to make our debut in the Nation’s Capital to a SOLD OUT show at The Red Palace.
On Saturday Night, June 18th, 2011 – WE’RE COMING BACK!
That’s right, we’ll be once again presenting a full Super Art Fight event at the Red Palace that evening, delivering DC everything that has made us known as the Greatest Live Art Competition In the Known Universe.

We announced it this weekend at The Metro Gallery, and now we want to make it official…
Super Art Fight XI will be held at The Ottobar in Baltimore, Maryland on Saturday Night, August 20th. Yes. A SATURDAY. You can stop demanding that now.
If you’re keeping track of nerd events, that’s the SAME weekend as Baltimore Comic Con, so we’re gonna work on making it a very unique night.

Stay tuned as we announce more matches, more talent and throw out general hype, as SAFXI gets ready to rain down upon Charm City!
This past Saturday afternoon, we at Super Art Fight were proud to present a unique event unlike any we’ve ever hosted before – Super Art Fight Idol.
On this day, 16 individuals battled tooth and nail to become the next permanent member of the Super Art Fight roster. It was truly unlike any of our shows to date, with a whopping fourteen bouts. New stars were born, tough decisions were made, and a highly surprising ending wrapped up the day.
Here are the results as they went down. All bouts were judged by SAF co-founders Nick “Ghostfreehood” Borkowicz and Jami “Angry Zen Master” Noguchi alongside SAF Champion Michael “Spaghetti Kiss” Bracco. Live commentary was provided by Ross Nover and Marty Day, with DJ Sheephead dropping the beats.

A HUGE thanks goes out to all sixteen artists who traveled to the show (special thanks to Joe Hunter, who came all the way from OHIO! and Rain Tessman, who joined us from CONNECTICUT!), and of course The Metro Gallery for allowing us to host experimental shows like Super Art Fight Idol. We promised that this wasn’t the last time you’d see these artists, and we will hold to it – just because these artists didn’t make it to the final bout doesn’t mean they’re gone for good! Such amazing talent on display that we HAVE to have them back soon!
Meanwhile, for our folks in Baltimore, we’ll be seeing you next at Super Art Fight XI, which is the topic of our next post!
This Saturday Afternoon, we return to The Metro Gallery in Baltimore, Maryland at 2pm for a very special show we’re calling Super Art Fight IDOL.
We opened up the floodgates to new talent to take the opportunity to become a part of the Super Art Fight roster, and this weekend Sixteen New Talents will battle it out, the final two getting a shot at a permanent SAF roster slot at Super Art Fight XI this summer.
The artists have been confirmed, and they’ve been waiting for their first round pairings, and we’re ready to announce them.
It was one of the most hard fought main events in SAF history, and now we have exclusive chats with each of the competitors who battled for the title at Super Art Fight X!
As has become somewhat of a tradition here at Super Art Fight, our crack staff photograph Brian Slaski has taken portrait photos of all of the performers* who appeared during Super Art Fight X as a unique keepsake of the night.
Like you’re used to, we’re sharing out the full gallery below. Enjoy it!
*Brian was not able to get photos of Nick “Ghostfreehood” Borkowicz & Brandon J. Carr due to scheduling issues. Apologies!
