OPENING RECEPTION April 7, 2017 5-8PM
Exhibiting April 7 – May 26, 2017

Mr. Lee, a mixed media artist from Indianapolis, is debuting his first solo show in over 2 years at gallery406, titled “SIDE-JABS”. Mr. Lee will be displaying over 15 new large format silkscreen paintings that will be on sale at gallery406 from April to the end of May.

SIDE-JABS
What do we desire?
To be loved or to love another?
Fame and Accolades?
Is it to have a passion or purpose in life?

SIDE-JABS is a personal love story about Mr. Lee’s inner struggles and self-doubt. These paintings will display the duality of his consciousness and the knowledge of Mr. Lee’s selfishness to obtain what he desires. With today’s world and the access to obtain everything we want with a click of a mouse, is taking those sacrifices even worth it? Where will this lead?

The I Fell Gallery invites you to the APRIL 7 First Friday @ the Fell

RELOCATED LANDSCAPES

First Fridays @ The Fell: Relocated Landscapes, featuring new artwork by Abbigail Knowlton Israelsen & Carissa Carman. The show includes mixed media such as paintings, photography and clay work. The opening reception is April 7 from 6 to 9 pm.

The opening show for Monroe County Civic Theater’s 2017 season is Jean Paul Sartre’s adaptation of Euripides’ The Trojan Women (directed by Jennifer Whitaker). This famous greek tragedy tells the story of what happens to the women of Troy once the city falls and their fates are left to the whims of the conquering Greek armies. The play’s antiwar message and examination of personal responsibility, misogyny, female agency and the cruel aftermath of war resonate as strongly today as they did over 2000 years ago. Help us to make this dark tragedy beautiful, meaningful and outstanding. email: [email protected]. Jen Whitaker – Director.
