“Slightly Erotic:  Mostly Love”

An art exhibit about love

 

The Avenue 50 Studio is pleased to announce an exhibit of “slightly erotic, mostly love” art pieces by José Antonio Aguirre, Michael Amescua, Rudy Calderon, Maria Castro, Jose Cortez, Alfredo de Batuc, Sam Hernandez, Michael Odell, Oliverio, Jose Orozco, Atilio Pernisco, Sara Remetch, Frank Romero and Betty Wan,.  A reception for the artists will be held on February 14, 2003 from 7-10 p.m. 

Slightly Erotic: Mostly Love” lays bare a variety of media from playful sculptures by Maria Castro and Jose Orozco to small erotic Polaroid transfers by José Antonio Aguirre.  Photography by Jose Cortez, Sam Hernandez, Michael Odell and Sara Remetch explore the sensuousness of the human body.  Michael Amescua, known for his metal sculptures, crafts romantic roses out of steel, forming a six-foot tall divider.  Balancing this exhibition where eroticism and love merge, a colorful mural-sized painting by collaborators Frank Romero and Alfredo de Batuc fits in nicely. 

This timely Valentine exhibit invites amorous dialogue and visual involvement, supporting the phrase, “make love not war”.  Please join us to celebrate love.

RECEPTION:              FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 2002, 7-10 P.M.

 
 

This exhibition runs from February 4, 2003 through February 28, 2003 and is free to the public.
