The photo booth pics from last week’s Cashcats.biz Art Partie are live — check ‘em out on Facebook and tag yourself, tag a friend, tag a cat.

The Art Partie lit up the financial, art, and feline press — here’s what they said:

“To [Cashcats.biz founder Will] Zweigart, the site’s evolved into much more than just another goofy cat meme. It’s exclusive and artistic—a gallery-like space for people who love photos of cats, money, and cats with money. ‘It’s getting real,’ he says of Cashcats’s evolution into fine art.” - Bloomberg Businessweek

“With the gallery showing the site set a new bar for Tumblrs everywhere by colonizing the brick-and-mortar universe with original content.” - Motherboard

“The hipster cat event of 2012.” - TIME

“The fashionable crowd was able to bid on the pieces for the charity BARC, which included a beautifully realized monocle-rocking Pusheen and an amazing taxidermy piece by Divya Anantharaman.” - Refinery 29

“Caternet history was made when the cat tumblr Cash Cats had a real life art show at The Dumbo Loft in Brooklyn.” - Buzzfeed

“A taxidermy kitten [made] for the show … perched on a tiny velvet couch, forever reaching its paw toward a string of $100 bills hanging from the ceiling.” - Wall Street Journal

“To those who think that the art world has gone to the dogs, be advised: Cats are making a run at it, and they are adorable, well-endowed and heavily armed.
The scene of the revolution? An obscure swath of Brooklynesque cyberspace called Ca$hCats.biz.” - Huffington Post

Serious dot-business.

this was my main project all summer. hustled hard. missed a few beach days.

but it was ridiculous and amazing.

had a bunch of help.

and we learned we could pretty much do anything (yes, that is actually true).

thanks forced meme. thanks tumblr.
