Art Highlights

James Marshall (Dalek), Untitled 2008.3, 2008. Acrylic on panel. 30 X 30 in.
Irvine Contemporary opened an exhibition by James Marshall (Dalek): Overweight which runs to June 21. The reception yesterday spilled out into the street. Five wonderful paintings are displayed. The show is excellent, elegantly exhibited, sold out and worth repeat visits.

Along my walking path to several mid city artists open studios yesterday, photos HERE, I happened across Cafe Collage at 1346 T Street NW. The owner made me a cup of the most delicious chai. The cafe features the contemporary artwork of Ethiopian artist, Yeshewawork Asseta through the month of June. The cafe has recently reopened and is a wonderful new stopping place in the neighborhood for food and coffee. Give it a try. You'll love the art and the friendly atmosphere.

This is a unique opportunity to see some of DC’s most exciting artists in their ‘home environments.’ Check out the burgeoning local art scene that is finding its focus in the dynamic Mid City neighborhoods, and visit some of the supporting Galleries and art related businesses that have recently opened – following the artists into this upscale urban environment.

It is an opportunity to integrate their art with the fast growing retail and commercial concerns that are located in this area. They are here to let you know that “there is more than a real-estate boom in Mid City - there is a group of extraordinarily talented artists who have quietly made a name for themselves by offering great art at affordable prices to the insiders who know them. The local Community has discovered this treasure, and you can discover it, too.

Chuck Baxter: Found Objects

A visit today to the Mid City Artist's Open Studio of Chuck Baxter provided a detailed look at this unique artist's work. Chuck finds his art materials on the streets of his neighborhood and other neighborhoods in the city. He transforms discarded objects and materials that litter the streets into handmade objects of art. Some of my favorites are his cyclone-like vases made from printed papers that he staples together. Another work that attracted my attention resembled a purse exposing its contents. It is made from shredded bits of vinyl and other discarded objects. Baxter weaves functional baskets from the most common material, ordinary plastic bags. I am always surprised and delighted to see this artists keen sense of design and wit, combined to make some very intriguing works of art. To contact the artist and see Baxter's work go to www.midcityartists.com. I recommend buying a piece or two of his work at these affordable prices.
