Opening Reception
Saturday, September 4, 2010
6-10PM
The
50 pieces of art exhibited at OCCCA in Santa Monica - The Art of
Summer, is
from a compilation of work derived from a project developed by Crussell Fine
Arts as a democratic means in search of art for Bloomingdales new store in Santa
Monica, California. Close to 1,100 pieces of art from some 400 artists living or
working throughout Southern California were presented to Bloomingdales for
review. The search was open to any and all artists no matter their experience or
representation. The artist's identities were concealed during the process until
Bloomingdale's made their final selections to purchase work for their new Santa
Monica stores permanent collection.
Please help out with
our CAN
drive!
A CAN of Food = A Small Unit of
Caring Nourishment, a Package and a Transportable Gift to a hungry person. We
are surrounded by hunger and none of us know how to begin the process of relief.
As part of the "Santa Monica
- The Art of Summer"
show curated by
Jeffrey Crussell, Executive Director of Crussell Fine Arts along with the Orange
County Center for Contemporary Art (OCCCA) we will building a CAN-Castle together as a community outreach project. With your help
and support our creative artists will work on playful creations that will then
be turned over to our local Orange County food banks. The CAN-Castle is a simple idea that we hope will build
into something that will inspire all of us to work together on solutions in
supporting our hungry.
Please help with donations of cans or money
to buy cans. All contributions over 100 cans or $100 will be listed on our
Crussell Fine Arts and OCCCA websites and given non-profit tax deduction
letters.
