Asterisk Benefit - seeking donations

Hello - it is the time of the year where I beg and plead with artists to donate a work of art for Asterisk's annual Dec benefit - if you would be willing to donate a small work for the event - Ideally, I would like a piece from each artist that particiapated in an Asterisk event in the past year as well as any other artist who wanted to doante a work - this will be a showcase of the past years exhibition and would help subsidize the next years events.


thank you for the consideration

regards

Dana

John Ryan at William Rupnik TONIGHT



William Rupnik Gallery is proud to present:


An exhibition by John Ryan
Mug Shots and Millionaires

November 6 - November 22, 2009

Opening reception 7-10 pm Friday, November 6, 2009




Mug Shots and Millionaires, a new solo exhibit by John Ryan, features works that poke fun at our lifestyles, our environment and the idiosyncratic stuff that makes us all seem a bit bizarre. Incorporating his vivacious sense of humor, John creates portrait and conversational pieces that are spontaneous and rawly modern. Working rapidly and prolifically using acrylic and house paints, pencil and found objects, he focuses on his combination of color and fabric within his arrangements. Each piece differs but remains a rudimentary and spirited emotional response inspired by pop culture and satire, growth and dissolution.
