In conversation with Scott
Canty, director of the Barnsdall
Art Gallery,
I found a gentleman saddened to reject over 50 works to narrow the choice of
this show to a very large 111 art pieces. He seemed torn but knew ultimately
that the show would suffer if this space had to hold all the works he and
colleague Chantel Paul choose out of the 1200 entries. I imagine the staff was
relieved and hanging all these works by 72 different artists (including 35 from North County) in their space was
a testament to their abilities. Seeing old friends was very rewarding with very
fine works by Anna Zappoli, Duke Winsor
(a seductive pink striped canvas), Cheryl Tall, Irene de Watteville, Irene
Abraham, Dan Adams, Reed Cardwell, Paul Henry, Jill Le Croissette, Viviana
Lombrozo, Allison Renshaw, Vincent Robles, Deanne Sabeck, Julia San Roman, Betsy
Schultz, Neil Shigley
But the most interesting
thing about the show was how many artists we did not know or know very well. We were especially pleased to discover a few excellent photographers and 54 artists never shown before at the Cannon Gallery
We also include news of a few other exhibitions visited this month including:
Please enjoy this preview of the Cannon show and go and see all 100 works at the show itself.
