Our very successful 2-person exhibit, Painted Poems, at the ACCI Gallery in Berkeley, ended with a bang! Our two last events were the cherries on top of the success of a month long exhibit that was very well received for the concept and the art itself.
The Artists Talk – almost fifty people showed up, more than double the gallery expected. The 30 minute Q&A lasted over 45 minutes as the audience had wonderful remarks about the poems we chose, the paintings created and the connection between the two. The questions were about our individual processes, our connection to the poems, and how was it working with another artist and a poet/poem, sort of a 3-way creative process. It was a very elevated and interesting conversation.
