Written in Black and White...


Summer has FLOWN by, and now we prepare for Fall. It may not feel it, but the season's are about to change! The Gallery calendar is really heating up, even as the temps will be cooling off. Next on the agenda is "Contrasts - Studies in Black and White". Simply put, you don't want to miss this show! We invite all guests to come dressed in your very best black and white outfits and accessories. The more outrageous the better.

Award winning artistGeorgette Pressler of Devious Body Art will be joining us, painting a model live. She is transforming her model into a living sculpture--patterned after Maria Hayden's amazing black and white torso sculpture that will be on display. A great opportunity to see why body art is one of the most explosive and popular arts events! Gallery artist Karen McGovern is hosting the event, and has created a series of mixed media jewelry in black and white for the show. Other Gallery artists creating works specific to this show include Mary Catello and Teri Salomoni, Norman Gitzen, Betty Wilson, Madeline Gallo and Linda Manganaro. The Gallery will be filled with amazing works in all mediums, all in black or white.

So, come out on Friday, September 16th at 6:00 PM for a wonderful live art event! AND, some good treats as well. TooJays Gourmet Deli of Lake Worth will be helping out with their delicious black and white cookies. We'll have some yummy cheeses and wines to sip as well. See you next Friday at 6:00....

What a Great Night!!

"Figuratively Speaking" was a fantastic success! Thanks to all who joined us last night, especially guest artists Claudia Jane Klein and Georgette Pressler. Claudia debuted her sculpture, the Wheel, which will reside outside the Gallery for the next 90 days as part of our new "Revolving Art" program. Georgette, of Devious Body Art, created an amazing work of living art by body painting a goregous model. Really spectacular!

Gallery artist Marsha Christo created hand-cut prints she applied live to anyone wearing light colored clothing who wanted an instant work of oringinal, wearable art. Many guests enjoyed not only the finished print, but the free hug that came with the process!

More events on the way so stay tuned!

Talk About a FANTASTIC FRIDAY....

Whew! This Friday, July 16th, is going to be AMAZING in the Gallery. First, the entire Avenue will be celebrating the 4th of July (because we got rained out on the 4th!!), so there will be tons of excitement and activity on the Avenue. AND, the Gallery is celebrating the human form in art with "Figuratively Speaking". Guest artist Georgette Pressler of Devious Body Art will be joining us as well. Georgette is an award winning artist, and will be painting Gallery supporter Maria Cole during the event. This will be so cool!! PLUS, Gallery artists Marsha Christo and Tracy Rosof-Petersen will be block-printing directly on your clothes, so were a solid, light color and become a living part of the art show!

Bottom line, you just don't want to miss this. Call the Gallery for more information, 561-588-8344. See you Friday!!!
