Belly of the Beast

“Belly of the Beast” Greetings-

You are cordially invited to an Artist Reception on

Friday the 18th of November from 6:00 till 11:00 ArtObjectGallery 592 North 5th Street San Jose

The artists featured in this exhibit are Jason Adkins, Ben Alexy, Michael Buscemi, Karen Ehlers, Christopher Elliman, Matt Serna, Ema Sintamarian, and Jeanne Vadeboncoeur.

Ben Jonson wrote "Bartholomew Fayre" (1614): "What do you say to a drum, sir? It is the broken belly of the beast, and thy bellows there are his lungs, and these pipes are his throat, those feathers are of his tail, and thy rattles the gnashing of his teeth."

This is an exhibit of paintings selected by painters. The belly reflects the work that goes on in our studios (at times we are all in the belly).

We painters sing with our brushes and sometimes paint with our teeth. We rattle the bushes in our lonesome pursuit. With much work behind us, we sometimes strike moments of genius.

This exhibit will be up November 18th thru the December 16th.
