Let the Art Battles begin! - MTV’s Art Battles…EXCLUSIVE CLIP

MTV is actually being ARTSY and doing a super rad thing called Art Battles. Basically, a lucky artist will be able to have their creation incorporating the MTV logo hung up in the MTV Studio in Times Square for LITERALLY the world to see. The catch is that you get to vote who wins

Now, if you are an art geek like me this is super cool and definitely something to check out.

So the deal with Art Battles is that it was created by Sean Bono back in 2001 in downtown NYC, but this past battle took place on MTV’s outdoor deck overlooking Times Square. 12 artists were part of the 2 hour event, painting side-by-side to see who had skills, creativity, and able to accomplish their vision in the time constraints.

And also a video of the event and who exactly these winners are:

Go vote for them at www.artbattles.mtv.com.

Everyone has up to 5pm ET on June 8th to vote, then on June 11th @ 3:30pm the winner will be announced on TRL.
