I would like to invite you to a special showing of my large abstract works in a beautiful setting. The Museum of Cultural Arts Houston (MOCAH) has invited me to exhibit these works as part of their ongoing Art of Culture series. The facility is located at 908 Wood Street, in the warehouse district on the north side of downtown Houston. This area, which was ground zero for the recent Art Crawl, has become one of the most vital art districts in town.
In contrast with the Art Crawl, however, MOCAH prefers to host artistic events that will be of interest to serious art patrons. I enjoy the party atmosphere of the Art Crawl, but I am so looking forward to showing these works to those of you who, by habit, will view the works with contemplation and a well-trained eye. The paintings will be offered for sale, and will remain on display for the month of December.
The reception will be held this Sunday, December 5, 2010, from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm. The following works will be on display:
"Faith, Hope, Love" triptych, 44" x 13 feet, oils on canvas
"Wheatfield, Gachet" 72" x 60", acrylics on canvas
"Malaysia" 60" x 24", acrylics, oils and copper flake on canvas
"Here Come the Pain Birds", 60" x 24" acrylics, oil pastels and charcoal on canvas
"Via Chicago", 40" x 24", acrylics on canvas
"Maelstrom Perfected", 30" x 24" acrylics on canvas
"Sanguinova" 30"x30", oils on canvas
"Mermaids Play at Night" 30"x24", oils on canvas
In its 15 years of existence, MOCAH, the brainchild of Reginald and Rhonda Adams, has become recognized as a foundational resource for the development of art in Houston. It is not necessary to RSVP for this event, and you are welcome to bring guests. MOCAH has introduced me to some amazing artists (and I support their public art installations and projects for youth involvement), so I am excited for you to become better acquainted with this organization.
