(abstract)URGE, this extraordinary exhibition premieres in Vero Beach Raw Space Gallery of abstract art which will open its doors for this special reception on Thursday evening, November 14 and run through January 24th. This show features the work of local artists Gabriela Hernandez, Christina Bates, Xaque Gruber, Shotsi LaJoie, Barry Shapiro, and Leslie Stokes, with a unique musical presentation by Aric Attas that will run through the duration of the show. Also, a feature length documentary film about the show and the artists is being created by the filmmaking team of Ericka and Brandon Reardon, a short version of which will be shown during the exhibit as well. The complete film will debut at the Vero Beach Film Festival in the spring.
Aside from presenting an exhibit of 5 abstract painters, in and of itself an unusual kind of exhibition for the Vero community, what will make this show unique are numerous special events presented by the artists during the length of the exhibit. Workshops, lectures, demonstrations, wine tastings and other events will be on the calendar. A storytelling evening will be presented by Mr. Gruber and a demonstration of how to create music from plants by Mr. Attas are just two of the unusual and engaging events planned. Specific dates will be announced later this month. Raw Space Gallery is known for being at the forefront of avant-garde arts presentations in Vero Beach and this exhibit is no exception. Raw Space is located at 1795 Old Dixie Highway in the Downtown Arts District.
