Lighthouses, Puppies & Boats (Oh My!)
Light houses, Puppies & Boats, (Oh my!). The exhibit
featured over 25 top local artists who were asked to let their
imaginations run wild, dealing creatively with these highly popular
subject matter. The challenge for the artist was to approach these
cliche, over-done subjects in a fresh new light, evolving them into
evocative works of art -- and have they ever! All styles and mediums
were represented. Many of the works expressed a modern, ironic
sensibility while others are more "straight ahead" in their
approach. Some are sentimental while others are raw with emotion.
Some just look nice on the wall. Ultimately, the variety of personal
styles come together to make a statement about society and the way we
view ourselves, which is the point of any great exhibit. The featured
artists were present at the opening Garden Party to discuss their work. Great food and refreshments, music and an arty crowd made for an enjoyable night out.
