First Friday, February 2011

Lot's o' stuff going on on First Friday and some with our very own prints. We are taking a little hiatus until April with our own First Friday so we took the opportunity to check out a couple of other places for a change.
Curiously Hollandia International - the trendy bed showroom on 3rd street in Old City - has some great work from Jen Hallden-Abberton. Really cool large scale photo's (digital images), which are composits from many images.


From Jen's show at Hollandia we went to Ven and Vaida (http://venandvaida.com/) a relatively new jewelry boutique and gallery at 18 South 3rd Street where Atom Gunn has turned their store into a kind off hip supermarket a la Warhol with boxes and cans of things that you really want!

The boxes and canned goods are perfectly crafted and where else can you buy a can o' art (or is it an art o' can) for only $29.99!  

The jewelry is a little more expensive and I had to remind Sabrina that we were late for our next stop before Valentines day would inevitably come up.




Successfully leaving behind the shiny pretty things we went on to The Locks Gallery where our good friend Jane Irish has a large show of work including this spectacular painting "The Conversation" which is 42" high by 30 feet long. Sadly none of our prints here but still worth a visit.
