Summer Salon @ the Gray Loft Gallery closes

~


The Gray Loft Gallery ended the exhibition, Summer Salon, with the usual bang at the gallery's closing reception for the show, (links below).        

Dick Winter came through once again when he poured the special wine created at the Alameda based Rock Wall Wine Company.

And Rachel LaPell gave what she calls her ArtTalk, an improvised performance referencing the works in the exhibition (link below).

Leslie Frierman Grunditz showed and explained to me the fascinating signifiers present in her & her husband, Ake's "sculpture"/installation piece. They both decided they needed to document the history behind the piece; I think it's a fantastic idea. Go for it Kids!

Philip Dow ~ Sphere of Influence @ the Gray Loft Gallery

Some of the works being shown in the Common Ground exhibition at the Gray Loft Gallery are those of sculptor, Philip Dow. His cast acrylic sculptures range from the light, ethereal and delicate to the bold, dramatic and playful.  One work that falls into the second category is, Sphere of Influence.

Visitors to the gallery last Saturday discovered the fun that could be had with the dramatic and elegant piece. Fortunately, I was there to catch them at it.
