The Art Reception

9/18/2010

0 Comments

 
Yesterday evening, an art reception.  In an unusual venue.  HIll Country Bible Church NW presents the most cutting-edge exhibits in northwest Austin and, I believe, could compete with any gallery in the  city. Over 45 artists presented work in many different media, including painting, sculpture, watercolor, drawings, mosaic, glass, lettering arts, ceramics, mixed media.  Plus, the cake is awesome.

For the first time, I exhibited not only paintings, but also digital photographs.  I received the most comments on one of the photographs, "Closer".  I found this broken car side-mirror while walking with my dog on an undeveloped property in my suburban neighborhood.  How long had it lain there?  I do not know.  It's brokenness called out to me.  The sky reflected in the chunks of glass seemed such a poignant image.  

For now we see through a glass, darkly, but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. (βλέπομεν γὰρ ἄρτι δι’ ἐσόπτρου ἐν αἰνίγματι, τότε δὲ πρόσωπον πρὸς πρόσωπον· ἄρτι γινώσκω ἐκ μέρους, τότε δὲ ἐπιγνώσομαι καθὼς καὶ ἐπεγνώσθην.)

I brought a friend.  I believe it was her first visit to an art opening reception.  And, as I said, the cake was awesome.
