“SUMMER FLING”
curated by Ali Fitzgerald
DATES: JUN 17-July 12, 2006
RECEPTION: SAT, JUN 17 2006, 8 – 11p
Ah Summer romance; sweaty palms gripping a sno-cone, a musty cabin and a shared case of mono. In “Summer Fling,” three young artists harness these first flickering moments of desire with works that investigate the delicate zone between seduction and repulsion, innocence and a newfound impurity. With large-scale bestial mutations, gender-bending portraits, and horrifying depictions of a skewed sexual dynamic, Randy Muniz, Christa Palazzolo, and Senalka McDonald show us not love lost, but love adulterated. “Summer Fling”, is not your easily idealized Summer tryst, but rather a record of the complications that occur when one finally leaves the campground.
Come join us as we celebrate “Summer Fling” with an artist reception on Saturday June 17, from 8 – 11 pm. The exhibition is on view from June 17 – July 12, 2006. Art Palace is located at 2109 E. Cesar Chavez St. (next door to Taqueria Chapala) between Chicon and Robert Martinez.
Gallery Hours: Saturday noon to 5pm, Wednesday 7 to 9pm and by appointment.
