The space is really nice, restored but not overly so (floors still creaky, love that). It comes across as sort of a hobby studio for the ultra rich. I've seen a lot of artist lofts/shared spaces like this and to be a working artist, it's just not feasible to afford space this nice. The art was pretty typical, loads of painters. Mostly landscapes and the such. Not much in the way of multimedia or 3D. Very little in the contemporary arts which is what we were looking for, I think this is a fair representation of Charlotte in general. Very safe art. The hunt continues for something a little more cutting edge.
