ready-ish
June 6th, 2008 by jim winsteadAfter a bit of a soft opening today, punctuated by continuing cleanup and painting touch-ups, we’re almost set for our show openings on Saturday.
If you have walked by our store space on Main Street, you’ve probably seen the two amazing window installations by C. Finley and Brian W. Evans. You need to stop in and see the rest of the show. We love it all, of course, but one of the pieces that has been getting the strongest reactions is McLean Fahnestock’s sculpture in the back room. So don’t miss it!
And if you have been by Sixth and Main, you’ve probably seen the Moon inside the PE Lofts. We’ve certainly seen people craning their necks to see it when they drive by. I’d tell you about the other pieces you shouldn’t miss there, but I’ve been ensconced in the store and haven’t had the chance to see much of the show myself.
I did help hang the pieces in A Deeper Shade at 6th and Los Angeles, and I can’t recommend it enough. James does such amazing work that I feel a little guilty that we’re taking up some of his time with the store and gallery.
Celia, James and I are all pretty fried — it has taken some long nights and early mornings to get all of these shows together, and we still have work to do. But we couldn’t be happier with the reaction to the shows so far.
