my art show-viridian gallery: june '09-invitation card
this is the invitation card for my upcoming new york art show at viridian gallery, new york city.
i just found out yesterday that i was named a finalist in the prize selection. true, i was not one of the top three winners. but to even be a finalist in an art show juried by elisabeth sussman, curator of the whitney museum, new york city. that pleases me very much to be one of the finalists.
i will be attending the opening, 2 july, 2009. i am looking forward to meeting ms. sussman and seeing my art in new york!
the art piece in the show is "mail art 2".
( a larger version can be found in my set "my art").
see comment box below
the adventure of living and traveling the world is reflected in the "mail art" series. the "mail" used is actual mail i received while living abroad.
mixed media: acrylic paint, found objects, dolls, bones, teeth (my dental mold), cloth flowers, jewels, thread spool, beer caps, paper, wooden box, dowels, beads, stamps, collaged paper.
13" x 10" x 6"
2007
i received the acceptance letter (18 may).
i am going to be in a show in viridian gallery, 530 west 25th st., ny 10001.
only 25 artists were accepted for the show. 370 artists world wide applied. many submitted up to 10 art pieces for consideration. i submitted three.
the juror for selection is elisabeth sussman, curator at the whitney museum (how cool is that!!!!! the whitney!..years ago i had some work in the art-o-matic at the whitney).
the show runs from 30 june-17 july, 2009. the opening reception is thursday 2 july, 5-8 pm.
this is my second new york show. my first was at the "pen and brush gallery" 2-26 april, 2009.
and now, just a month later, i am accepted into another new york gallery!
neal and i will take the bus up to ny for the opening of the show. we will return that night since just a few days later we leave for france and spain.
last summer, when we were in africa, i had a reading with a fetishman. he said that "good things would happen to me in my art". i believed him than and i certainly believe him now. it is amazing all the "good happenings" i have had in my art since we returned from africa.
i am very excited......and so pleased!!!!!

although neal and i couldn't attend the opening of my new york art show yesterday my friends went. how nice of them. i'm very fortunate to have such nice friends. one of my friends sent me this email:
we finally got to see something of yours in a show last night, so while you weren't there in person, you were in spirit. and after seeing your piece, spirit is very apparent! the show was terrific and we enjoyed the range of things. your assemblage looked wonderful on the wall.
the place was packed! we introduced ourselves to the owner/hostess as your friends and she sent her best for a speedy recovery (for neal).
