TIKI! Opens Friday, July 1st, from 6-9pm Studio Quercus gallery Show runs through August 13th Gallery is open Saturdays from Noon-6pm and by appointment Event is Free to the public An exhibition and installation featuring art, artifacts and ephemera. It is a celebration of Tiki in America: a volcanic admixture of anthropology and overactive imaginations, a lava-flow of creativity, a symphonic din of exotic birds and ukuleles, a manageable mob of hand-hewn moai and taboo totems, and all the coconut curiosities you could ever hope to see. A wholly unprepared public is invited to step into a Thatched Refuge for exotic imagery and terrifying carved figures that only monsoon-addled minds could dream up. Over twenty artists participating in this installation which is not to be missed! |
