I will have three paintings in Mainsite Gallery‘s annual group invitiational show, Core Evidence, which opens this Friday, February 13th, 2009. Mainsite is located at 122 E Main St. in Norman, Oklahoma. The reception, part of a Norman Artwalk, will be from 7-9 pm. The event is free and open to the public.
Core Evidence will display art from the featured artists’ current bodies of work. Each artists is represented by works that comprise a “core sample” of their ongoing techniques and concepts. Featured artists include Todd Stewart, Paul Mays, XVALA, and myself. The group show runs concurrent to a solo show of paintings by Steve Breerwood.
This show at Mainsite is part of the Norman Arts Council’s 2nd Friday Circuit of Art, a scheme developed by the Fred Jones Junior Museum of Art, the Norman Arts Council, the Norman Gallery Association and the CART (Cleveland County Area Rapid Transit) Trolley. Patrons are encouraged to park their cars in the Downtown area, at the Firehouse, the Campus Corner area or surrounding areas and travel by foot or by CART Trolley to participating events destinations. Signs and information will be available at all participating locations and in the parking lot at University and Main at the Norman Arts Council Event Tent. For more information please contact the Norman Arts Council or visit the Norman Gallery Association website.
Sarah Goes to NYC
This is your brain on vacation.
As you may have read, I have a piece in the Society of Illustrators Annual 51. The show for the Book and Editorial categories has opened, and I’ll be attending the awards night this Friday, February 6th, with friends and family.
Other things I plan to do in New York include:
Walking a lot
Eating a lot, for example, at Sakagura
Attending the Society’s weekly Jazz & Sketch night on Thursday
Catching the end of the James Jean show Kindling at Johnathan LeVine Gallery
And maybe getting a haircut
Ciao!
p.s. Thanks to Shanna at Blue 7 for helping me find something respectable to wear.
