I'm in a show! First one in quite a while. It's a group show with the theme 'back to reality', focusing on nature, landscapes, animals, and unadulterated life.
I don't have too many pieces in my collection that aren't cheeky or otherwise representative of altered reality. Or at least of satirical reality. I have this piece here called Frogmentation. And I have three others in the show. The opening is on Friday, but the show is on for a couple weeks.
Here's a facebook event page one of the other artists made for the event: https://www.facebook.com/events/261335641085442/
It's a group show, so I think there might be as many as 30 of us. The amazing thing about Artusiasm group shows, or at least, one thing that strikes me in a wonderful way - is that it's without question, the most multicultural gallery that I've ever been involved with. It also seems to be denser by quality.
There are other galleries in the city that do big group shows, but end up with a real mix of quality rather than culture. Some really amazing artwork, and some... not as great. And not really that much effort seems to go into curating.
I have never not been impressed with Artusiasm's hard work and professionalism when it comes to curation. And they do it all with warm hearts and smiles on their faces. This is a place where people really respect art, and take it seriously, but they don't take themselves too seriously, which is really the best compliment I know I personally would hope for.
As a bonus, I've never heard anyone complain about damaged work here. Unlike a few other places I've shown.
I'm really looking forward to the opening on Friday.
