Åarhus Gallery steps humbly into in the autumn season with a show entitled, Sticks, Stones and Bones. Please join them for an opening reception Friday October 4th from 5-8pm.

Making things from basic and accessible materials harvested from our immediate environment is a most human and noble thing to do. Noble indeed, because we may have become the humans we are today because of it and we likely owe our very survival to it up until just a few short centuries ago when things started getting all technical and complex. These days we can hardly turn our heads without it involving some sort of electronic device. It is unfortunate that so many of us have lost this compulsion to dabble in the realm of the sublunary because the outcome can be…. really cool.

The upcoming show at Åarhus will display a wide variety of artworks that, in one way or another involve or interpret these most basic ingredients.  So rattle your bones and rock on over to Åarhus for, Sticks Stones and Bones … it’s nothing to shake a stick at. The show runs from October 1st through the 27th.

Artists showing work will be: Barbara Andrus, Joe Ascrizzi, Brendan Bullock, J. T. Gibson, Kevin Johnson, Mark Kelly, Hannah Kreitzer, Richard Mann, Ben Potter, Abbie Read, Wesley Reddick, Willy Reddick and Andy White.
