Soon you will experience the forbidden "Fine Art" side of Polynesian Pop.This very special final year of the legendary HUKILAU for 2008, features for the first time, a TIKI ART exhibition and sale brought to you by the Harold Golen Gallery of Miami,Florida. Those who have been bitten by the bug of collecting the art of Tiki now have a chance to preview and buy precious works by many renown Tiki Art masters. An exquisite example available now is the painting above, a work by Thorsten Hasenkam titled, STILL LIFE WITH WAHINE , Acrylic on Masonite, 16"x 20" and sells for $1200. However, there will also be a selection of signed prints and original art fitting everyone's budget.

Be there from 7:00pm- 9:00pm when the show opens for your chance to choose what you can't live without, before the other Tiki Art hunters move in for the kill first!

Is the Miami gallery going to be open on Fri and Sat too? We're thinking about squeezing in a few Miami activities.

Hi, the Miami gallery will be closed this weekend since I will be at the Yankee Clipper FINE ART TIKI Show.
However, please register your email address on my site at haroldgolengallery.com so you can receive my newsletter
to keep you informed on all the shows and happenings. The new gallery which promises to be spectacular,should be completed by the end of this year or
the beginning of 2009. The re-grand opening should not be missed and will be worth your while for a short trip to Miami.
Be sure not to miss this show for HUKILAU 2008, see you there...
