ex Libris: Westerly
Library art exhibition featuring over 30 found windows by Eddie Hall
November 28th - December 30
Artist Eddie Hall is pleased to present ex Libris, an exhibition of over thirty art pieces created working with reclaimed windows. His work combines the rigid uniformity of hard-edge painting with themes of architectural abstraction and design. These works are all made on reclaimed windows and experimenting in glass painting techniques. The overall result is a body of work exhibiting bold colors that delves into the interplay between matte painted surfaces and glass.
** Holiday Mocktail Reception ** Wednesday, December 3, 5-7pm
Join artist Eddie Hall for a Holiday mocktail reception — a poetry workshop and readings hosted by Kelly Fowler and including a reception for this exhibit with a brief artist discussion. Refreshments and light snacks will be provided.
