“HOT”
A Group Exhibition of Steamy Art
July 23 – August 10, 2013
Reception Thursday July 25, 6-8pm
Chelsea: Viridian Artists, Inc. is pleased to present “Hot”: A Group Exhibition of Steamy Art, July 23 – August 10, 2013 with a reception Thursday, July 25, 6-8pm.
HOT, a tiny little three-letter word with a host of meanings if your vocabulary entertains slang. From stolen to steamily erotic and all that falls in between, as well as just plain too hot to handle.
Going to the web, the definition began with the usual and then proceeded to list over 30 different meanings for the word when used as an adjective that seemed to provide the right amount of variety for the diversity of the art in this exhibition.
For hot weather respite, Elizabeth Featherstone Hoff’s Mountain Landscape, David Dorsey’s swimming pool and Barbara K Schwartz’ palm trees. For the reality oriented, Bob Smith’s fruit, Susan Sills cutout of a Japanese Lady with a hot cup of tea, N’Cognita’s drawing of a burning iron as the “Housewife’s Revenge”, Matthias Merdan’s and Angela Smith’s nakedness. For lovers of color, Wally Gilbert’s and Arthur Dworin’s hot abstractions. For the fantasy-bent Kat King’s organic flame-breathing dragon and Michael Miller’s “Gridhead” and for nature lovers, Viriginia Smit’s red daisies, Alan Gaynor’s and Bob Tomlinson’s hot flowers. And a host of other steamy surprises!
We look forward to seeing you then and sharing our various hot pursuits with you!
