The Wayne White show ended this evening. Hours later, this is how the gallery looked.
My latest contribution to 29-95 (The passed-out passions of George Jones) was posted today. 371 words talking up the great Wayne White show at Rice U. Art Gallery. I had hit the gallery on Friday to take some pix and threw together the post over the weekend. The exhibition is a great one, and even if the galley wasn’t paying for some of my bills, I would still be mighty impressed with what goes on there.
As his Houston exhibition gets closer to opening, the Houston Chronicle has posted a good article/interview with the artist (Wayne White brings his wild imagination to Houston). Chronicle-affiliated blog, 29-95.com added loads of pictures of the work in progress (Wayne White creates giant George Jones head at Rice Gallery), and Rice Art Gallery contributed photos of their own (Facebook | Rice Gallery’s Photos – In Progress).
Lastly, he will be having a book signing at the Brazo Bookstore, 2421 Bissonnet, at 7pm.
So, it is with much pleasure that I regain employment. Being an independent contractor means never having to ask for vacation (which was much enjoyed this summer). Punching the clock and having fun doing it has been a nice return to the working world.
The latest artist to be showing at Rice U. Art Gallery is Emmy Award-winning Wayne White. Set/puppet designer for Pee-Wee’s Playhouse, he made a name for himself with a collection of text-based paintings.
At the gallery he is mixing the two together.
Looks great. Pictures to follow.
