Abstract Vibrations - 2

After the successful exhibition the abstract group held in Theoule-sur-Mer last summer, they have been invited to exhibit in the Salle St. Esprit in Valbonne. The exhibition opens this coming Friday ( 3rd February) at 10:00. The vernissage is in the evening at 18:30. The exhibition lasts until Sunday 26th February and is open daily from 10:00 - 18:00. Every day one of the artists will be in Valbonne to show you around and answer questions.

There are 21 participants - including Pim de Jongh and Christie Robinson. In all there are 36 pieces of artwork on display (28 paintings and 8 scuptures). Most of the work has not been shown previously. There are also 3 new members of the Hangar (but not new as artists) with work on display.

Monday evening the finishing touches were put on the last work .

The task of hanging up all the paintings looks so easy - but it certainly is not. Our artistic duo - Pim and Anne H. used Monday and Tuesday to put in place a harmonious display. On Wednesday the sculpture group was in place to set up their work.

Everything was ready in time for the opening on Friday 3rd February.

Sculpture class - by Christie Robinson

Christie’s sculpture classes have started up again! The Morning class (9.30 - 12.30) had Louise as a model today and as always a lot of good work was produced.

The afternoon class started their new sculpture year @2PM

Titia is working on a sculpture of her dog – not quite finished yet and it’s the details that take time!

Ann is experimenting with more abstract work. She takes her inspiration for nature. In the first picture you see her working on an abstract version of a conch shell. Ann has previously worked on the subject of shells. Below it you see one of her pieces which she has finished off with a raku glaze.

Marit joined the class before Christmas and has done some abstract pieces in clay. Here you see her starting off with her latest piece.
