Women's Art Exhibition, "I am Woman," show opens on Aug. 15, 2008 |
 An exhibit featuring women artists will open Aug. 15 at The Next Picture Show, 113 W. First St. The “I Am Woman” show, which runs through Sept. 16, will include artwork depicting women or objects related to women.
“When we put our calendar together each year, we try to work in some
new concepts. With this show, we wanted to feature work with themes
ranging from jobs and childbearing to humor and friendships and much
more,” said Bonnie Kime, executive director of the gallery. “The art
runs the spectrum from paintings in all mediums, photography,
textiles/fiber, printmaking, graphic illustration, drawing and mixed
media.”
The show is open to the public with an artists’ reception from 6
p.m. to 8 p.m., Aug. 15. The public is invited to stop by and meet the
artists. Pat Schaible, owner of Something Special at 123 W. First St.,
is the sponsor.
Artist Raphael Iaccarino will judge the show. He is an internationally
known artist whose vivid watercolors are inspired by the Costa Rican
rain forests and jungles. Iaccarino, whose work is exhibited in public
and private collections worldwide, has spent years observing the
primary subject of his inspiring work.
Don’t forget to stop by and check out the featured member artists whose
work is displayed at the front of the gallery. Gary Chipman will be
featured Aug. 16 to 31. Pat Lathe--KSB Portraits will be featured Sept.
1 through Sept. 16. The lower gallery is featuring the private
collection of George E. Noone of Harry Nurmet's work for sale. Wo
