Just wanted to let everyone know about a great group art show I am putting on. Dubbed Vessel it is a special one night + one day event happening here in Austin. It will be held at the shade houses and beautifully landscaped grounds of Utility Research Garden at 638 Tillery Street from 6 to 10 pm and open Sunday from 11-4. The show is partially funded by the Austin Cultural Arts Division and sponsored by Big Medium. Vessel is both the name and theme of the opening. Approximately 24local artists are doing one piece each for this special event being held to show case their work as well as foster a sense of community in the arts and make connections between this diverse group. Many artists will be showing literal vessels but the theme is also open to work that is the individuals own interpretation of the idea of a vessel. The artists will represent a range of disciplines including:
wood work
ceramics
metal work
glass
sculpture
2d painting and illustration
The opening is free and there will be both food and drink as well as a musical performance by Ethan Azarianmid way through the evening.
