I partnered with Joanne Lensink, a member of the Mead Library Poetry Circle, to create a painting which will be on exhibit at the Sheboygan Visual Artists exhibit entitled, Making it Speak: Poets and Artists in Cahoots at the EBCO ArtWorks Gallery, 1201 Erie Avenue, Sheboygan. (map)
Come to the opening reception on March 28, 2014 6 pm – 10 pm.
There will be poetry readings beginning at 7:30 pm. This event, complete with refreshments and valet parking, is open to the public, free of charge.
Sixteen members of the Mead Library Circle were paired with sixteen SVA artists, resulting in a joint exhibit of art and poetry in the main gallery.
The artist took on the challenge of creating a new work of art based on one of three poems submitted by a poet. That new work of art and the poem that inspired it will be displayed side by side.
Each artist submitted photos of three already completed works of art. Mead Library Poets chose one work of art to inspire a new poem. Both the work of art and the new poem that it inspired will be exhibited side by side.
The end result will be two works of art by each artist exhibited alongside two poems by members of the Mead Library Poetry Circle.
EBCO Artworks Gallery is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 am – 4 pm March 29 & 30, April 5 & 6, April 12 & 13
