With
mouth watering aromas emanating from the delectable cuisine prepared
by Chef G (aka Guarino Cortese) chefIIgo@yahoo.com
as it's backdrop, The SOHO in the BURG Gallery in Stroudsburg, PA
held an Artists’ Reception on Saturday August 8th
for
their Art
A La Carte exhibition.
The exhibition was held in conjunction with The Local Flair Magazine
whose next issue will be focused on the culinary delights that are
abundant throughout the local area. A contest was held to determine
which images depicting a wide variety of foods would be featured in
the magazine's Harvest issue was held with the winners being
displayed in the gallery's front window facing the street where all
who pause to peek at the wonders inside the establishment will be
able to explore the wonders found in the artists' talents. These
artists are Andrea
Rimberg, Kara Detrick, James Chesnick, and Jill Swersie.
Their
work and the works of others who shared their talents with the
gallery captured not only the imagination of those who viewed them
but their taste buds as well. The enjoyment of partaking of a fine
meal of colors and shapes was prevalent throughout the well attended
event as the gathering feasted upon the appetizing images with their
contemplations and conversations. A variety of approaches to the
theme revealed the ever expanding scope of the topic and how it feeds
the artistic desire to discover new ways to prepare what sustains us.
In other words, the work is delicious.
In
addition to the pieces on display for the Art
A La Carte exhibition,
a number of cells
from cartoons that were also shown. These images included those of
Bugs Bunny, Tom and Jerry, Felix the Cat, and others. A delight was
seen in each viewer's eye as childhood memories filled their hearts
with the joy of seeing their friends and their antics for the once
again. The collection of Disney and Warner Brothers animation was
donated to the gallery by Frank Fiore and Rob McMahon.
