Artists who didn’t make Minnesota State Fair get second chance in ‘Rejects’ show

The article reports on the 2025 'State Fair Rejects' show at Douglas Flanders & Associates Gallery in Minneapolis, which accepts artworks that were not selected for the Minnesota State Fair's juried fine arts exhibition. Artist Attila Ray Dabasi, who had been accepted regularly in the past but was rejected this year, is among about 75 participants displaying works like his sculpture 'Armageddon.' The gallery, led by owner Doug Flanders, started the show last year to give rejected artists a second chance to exhibit and sell their work, with all drop-offs accepted. The State Fair received 2,834 submissions but only 337 were chosen, highlighting the competitive nature of the fair.

The Rooftop Gallery Next Door

Adam Zhu, an artist, skateboarder, and photographer, has transformed a 9-by-15-foot former storage shed on his Chinatown rooftop into Market Gallery, a tiny exhibition space.

Zhu, who moved into the apartment in 2015, renovated the shed with contractor Andrew Kass, adding concrete walls and folding glass doors. The gallery has hosted seven shows, featuring emerging and established artists, and has become a platform for art in an unconventional setting.
