With a tip of the hat to Andrew Krucoff, originator of The Gothamist Interview, I am going to be running interviews with the ten winners of the Hey, Hot Shot competition. They are slightly goofy, but fun and (I hope!) interesting. I'm enjoying getting to know these artists, so I figured I should share the love. I'll be posting a couple of interviews a day, starting today and leading up to the grand finale: the reception for the Hey, Hot Shot Spring Showcase which is next Thursday, May 5, 2005 (05/05/05!) from 6pm-8pm. So, enjoy and we'll see you all in person next week.
