    Past to Present – Tattoo Paintings frames the contemporary tattoo flash art movement in its traditional context. The exhibit features flash art (“flash” is the trade name for individual tattoo designs) by a number of recognized contemporary tattooists. Past to Present- Tattoo Paintings has been organized and timed to accompany this year’s Philadelphia Tattoo Convention, February 10-12, 2012 at the Philadelphia Convention Center. The exhibit is curated by Troy Timpel, a Philadelphia-based tattoo artist, creator of clothing line Tattooed Kingpin and organizer of the wildly successful Philadelphia Tattoo Arts Convention.
