Bring Us Your Surreal Art!

Anne Marguerite Herbst  Watching Within  oil on canvas, 16 x 20 in. 2005

In 1924, French poet, Andre Breton, published Manifesto of Surrealism: a treatise denouncing realism and rationality. He believed the "omnipotence of dreams" and exploring the unconscious would liberate humanity. This idea became a revolutionary art movement producing weird, wild and fantastical images. It has been embraced worldwide, in many mediums, ever since. Bring us your surreal art and help us celebrate 100 years of Surrealism.

David Borac and Wei Wei Rapoport

We were entranced this evening at the Classical Music Concert by pianist David Borac and singer Wei Wei Rapoport!

 

Karen Hutchinson & Zachariah Spellman

We thank Karen Hutchinson-piano & Zachariah Spellman-tuba for an amazing duo performance at FOG. They treated us to folk songs and a splendid Alec Wilder tune, Moon and Sand.

 

Yvonne's Knitting Machine Demo

Yvonne made this before our very eyes!

Yvonne treated us to a marvelous afternoon of knitting on her analog machine that uses punch cards. We were given blank cards to create our own design and a special hole puncher that the machine uses to knit the design.

The art on the walls was not created with this machine. She used another machine and computer program to knit her photographs.
