First Friday Art Walk: June 5, 5 – 9 p.m.
This year’s presentation is, in fact, a mash-up of two titles, “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland” by Lewis Carroll and “Remarkably Bright Creatures” by Shelby Van Pelt, whose storylines are related only in the visual opportunities they present, and a group of creatives who, when deciding between the two, chose not to limit their imagination and elected to do both!
Niza Knoll Gallery is pleased to revisit its series of exhibitions in which members of gallerist Niza Knoll’s book club bring to life characters and scenes of a common book through visual art.
This year’s presentation is, in fact, a mash-up of two titles, “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland” by Lewis Carroll and “Remarkably Bright Creatures” by Shelby Van Pelt, whose storylines are related only in the visual opportunities they present, and a group of creatives, who, when deciding between the two, chose not to limit their imagination and elected to do both!
Each participating artist—Aliki McCain, Niza Knoll, Sally Lewis, Pat Lickly, Kristi Melodia, Ellen Reynolds and Georgianne Rollman—brings a distinct style and vision to the show, with some pieces depicting characters unique to one book, while others creatively intertwine the worlds. Mediums include paintings, ceramic sculptures, collage, fabric, mixed media and more.
Regular gallery hours are Thursday – Sunday, 1 – 4 p.m., except for during the following district-wide art walks, First Friday, 5 – 9 p.m., and Third Friday, 5 – 8 p.m.
