Wearable Expressions

If you are in Los Angeles go see "Wearable Expressions," the sixth biennial international juried wearable art exhibition, at the Palos Verdes Art Center through 20 April. Pictures from the opening (taken by my brother Charles) are below. “Art-to-wear is the unique creation of an artist seeking a fresh alternative to the conventional media of painting and sculpture,” states Gabrielle, curator. “Each exhibition brings works made with new technology as well as pieces created with unexpected materials used in unusual ways. Yet many are also very serious conceptual works of fiber or jewelry art expressing the concerns and viewpoints of our time.”
