Dawn Back views a Michael G Moore
Originally uploaded by trudeau.
A three-ring circus of art and people is what you will see at Artspace, 710 Texas, on Fri, Nov 17. Having previewed the exhibit I must say the big building at 710 Texas St is bursting with well-displayed art. It seems to top last year's inaugural Deck the Halls.
The big names are there, including Bill Gingles, Jerry Wray, Tama Nathan, Mary Jane Potts, Ray Holt and Michael G Moore. There are also the folksy artists and some cute stuff. Something for almost everyone, as one would expect in a show designed to put art under the viewer's arm and his cash on the table.
The sale will run through Xmas. Last year many buyers went home from the reception with the choice pieces.
At 5:30 the 2006 Shreveport Artist Fellowship recipients will be feted.They are -
dance - Renee Smith-Chevallier
literary - Dorie LaRue
multi-disciplinary - Ron Hardy
music - Dorsey Summerfield
theater - Patric mcWilliams
visual art - Randy Hedgecock
Upstairs is a strikingly cool show from artists abiding in Ruston, Monroe and Shreveport. They call themselves the Eye-Twenty Group, says Enoch Doyle Jeter, former Shreveporter and proprietor of Enoch's Pub. See his work and work from Linda Snider Ward, Charles Meeds, Laura Noland Harter and Kristi Hanna, among some 30 accomplished art mongers.
The clever ad man and artist Byron Gates has a one-man show upstairs, adjacent to the Eye Twenty show. Then there's art from YWCA youngsters in the Anderson Funtorium. That makes it a, gee, four-ring circus.
Easy parking, across from First Methodist.
One thousand artists.
Cash bar and large bowls of nichas.
Musica.
673-6535.
