Curiosities: Group Exhibition

Opening Reception: Saturday August 17, 2013 6-10 pm
Exhibition Dates: August 17 - September 6, 2013
Gallery Hours: Tuesday - Saturday, 10am - 6pm

Modern Eden Gallery is pleased to announce “Curiosities”, an international group show of works inspired by the strange and wonderful. Scenes of unexplained phenomena, sculptural oddities, and portraits of the bizarre will fill the back gallery, creating a modern representation of a cabinet of curiosities.

HISTORY: A cabinet of curiosities was an encyclopedic collection in Renaissance Europe of types of objects whose categorial boundaries were yet to be defined. They were also known by various names such as Cabinet of Wonder, and in German Kunstkammer ("art-room") or Wunderkammer ("wonder-room"). Modern terminology would categorize the objects included as belonging to natural history (real and unreal), geology, ethnography, archaeology, religious or historical relics, works of art (including cabinet paintings) and antiquities. (~Via Wikipedia)

Featuring the works of: Melissa Hartley, Bradley Platz, Lara Dann, Richard J. Oliver, Kelly McKernan, Catherine Moore, Laura Buss, Brenton Bostwick, Redd Walitzki, Leilani Bustamante, Rudy Fig, Mab Graves, Cayetano G. Valenzuela, Corey Urlacher, Cynda Valle , Calvin Ma, Mary Syring, Brianna Angelakis, Caitlin Hackett, Matthew Robertson, Donia, Derrick Scocchera, Raven Ebner, Edward Cao, Joshua Coffy, Rodrigo Cifuentes, Scott Holloway, Jason Snyder, Debra Gardner Abarca, Brande Barrett, Steven Suiter, Cory Benhatzel, Lacey Bryant, Steve Belmarsh, Shannon Amidon, Junsoo Kim, Helen Wilson, and Derek Harrison.

The opening reception for "Curiosities” will be held at Modern Eden Gallery on Saturday, August 17th from 6-10pm. Select participating artists will be in attendance at the reception. The exhibition will be on display through September 6, 2013 and is free and open to the public.
