Here is a preview of what's in store for you on May
1st at the Grand Opening of Tony Martin's Vibrational Art Exhibit at The
Cherry Espresso Bar on Laurel Street, across from the Wisner Park. Owner,
Lauren Fink, graciously offered the walls of her renovated fire house to us as
a venue for this event.
A crew of fans and workers arrived at 4877 Laurel
street around 2:30 yesterday afternoon. Hanging an exhibition requires
all sorts of expertise. The group consisted of two carpenters, two fellow
artists, Tony, and his wife, Carol, and me. We participated in the decorating
of the Cherry Espresso Bar's old brick walls. There are no real straight lines
on these old firehouse walls, so hanging "on the square" was an
adventure.
Madeline also known as, "MiMi Nuveau," and
her sister, Laurie Abadie, who is my adopted sister, acted as curators. These
two ladies have planned, designed, and exhibited hundreds of art works!
The patrons of the Cherry Espresso Bar were most
accommodating, and allowed us to slightly disrupt their coffee enjoyment with
our periodic drilling sounds. Three hours, and several delicious espressos
later, thirteen of Tony's works graced the walls of the old firehouse. The
expansive windows allow these works to vibrate with energy.
The exhibited pieces are titled and offer an
additional warm glow to the peaceful environment.
