Casa de Adobe Art Exhibition
We had a very successful art exhibition at the historic Casa de Adobe in Highland Park, as part of the Lummis Day 2009 Festival. Over 750 people came throughout the day to view art by J.Michael Walker, Jose Villeneuva, Raoul de la Sota, Julie Nagesh, Rick Willson, and Heriberto Luna. It's easy to for me to curate a show when I have access to such great artists. For information about Lummis Day, go to www.lummisday.org. Hope to see you next year!

SAA Squared Exhibition: Artists in Discussion Panel
Sunday, March 22, 2009 from 2-4 pm
The contemporary art world has seen an explosion in the use of fiber and textiles. Fine artists are moving into fiber art because it expands and explores new media artists are able to incorporate into their art. At the same time, art quilters are moving from their traditional roots towards a fine arts perspective. SAA Squared gives the viewer a compelling introduction to some of the newest work in this growing field.
Please join co-curators Connie Rohman and Kathy Mas-Gallegos, along with many of the SAA Squared artists for an informative discussion on the various processes, techniques used, and aesthetics of fiber art.
Refreshments will be served
