Carolina Cleere Headlines a Trio of Wearable Art Related Exhibits
Over the years, Wearable Art has become a Bay Area phenomenon. This year, three exhibits linked thematically to the award-winning fashion show, offer a thoughtful prelude to the August 14th event.
Carolina Cleere
Carolina Cleere's mixed media narrative portraits of lost innocence offer a provocative look at the emotions involved in what is ultimately a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit. Her complex imagery draws us into a world full of allusions, while allowing the mind room to explore its own meanings.
All Dolled Up
Is an Exhibit/Silent Auction of mail-art paper dolls to benefit education programs at DFAC. Artists either used a standard paper doll template (male or female) or created their own!
Designing Kiddos
DFAC Sizzlin' Summer young artists design duds for the next generation!
All three exhibitions open on Friday July 16, 2010. An Artist's Talk begins at 6:00 pm and a reception follows from 6:30 - 8:00 pm. Admission to the Talk and Reception are FREE to DFAC members and $5 for the general public. All three exhibits run through August 14, 2010.

Perpetrators
Sid Chafetz
Through Sun., Aug. 8, 2010
Sid Chafetz, an artist and master printmaker who dedicated his professional career to creating works of profound social significance, created
a series of portraits of what might be called "ordinary people" who executed Hitler's ghoulish plans. The artwork depicts the complicity of
industrialists, businessmen, professionals, soldiers, churchmen, physicians, lawyers and bureaucrats who implemented and executed the Nazi's
diabolical schemes. For this subject, he chose monotone lithographs as his predominate medium.

The Florida Holocaust Museum Presents
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures
Sat., May 22 - Sun., August 15, 2010
The Florida Holocaust Museum is pleased to present its summer exhibition,
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures. The exhibition opens on Sat., May 22 and runs through Sat., Aug. 15, 2010.
The exhibition includes the artist's (dis)Placement installation.
The Opening Reception for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures, featuring an Artist Talk and light refreshments, is
Sat., May 22 at 6:30 p.m. Please RSVP to: 727.820.0100, ext. 236 by May 17.
In this work and her other installations, Connell deals with the burden of her Holocaust survivor grandparents' memories and how
their trauma manifested itself in subsequent generations. The burden is so heavy that Connell's figures appear to sink into the walls
and floors of the gallery. They have an unfinished appearance - almost as though they are still wet clay. I want the sense that it
could all go splat, but also that they're malleable, Keys explains. They can change.
Connell received her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from The Maryland Institute College of Art in 2002 and her Master of Fine Arts (MFA)
from Ohio University in 2009. She was named a top Emerging Artist of the by Ceramics Monthly Magazine in May, 2009.
Connell's work has been on view in numerous solo and group exhibitions at galleries including the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Minnesota;
The Clay Studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the Herron Gallery in Indianapolis, Indiana; the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft in
Louisville, Kentucky and The Society for Contemporary Craft in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her work was recently part of Portraiture
Beyond Likeness which was exhibited at the Wayne Art Center in Wayne, Pennsylvania.
Andréa Keys Connell is an Assistant Professor of Ceramics at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. In addition to teaching and
exhibiting her work, she presents lectures that correlate with her interests in the study of intergenerational trauma and third generation
Holocaust survivors. Her sculptures and writings are driven by a desire to investigate how an individual's personal history affects their
identity, behaviors and actions.
Community Partners for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures are Mindy Solomon and the Jewish Federation of Pinellas and
Pasco Counties.
Images of sculptures from the exhibition are available. Please send you request to jsherman@flholocaustmuseum.org <

Centre Gallery's Glimpses of "Elsewhere"
Tampa's unnoticed history in a photograph
Tampa's abandoned buildings decay unnoticed, taking on human traits of loss, abandonment, and aging. Artist Nicole Abbett enters such environments to link their documentation to personal exploration, and to share in a one-time show the lives and secrets of buildings that would either wise go undocumented.
From July 26 through August 6, the Centre Gallery at the University of South Florida will host Elsewhere; an exhibit of photographs, taken with a large format camera, that will transport viewers into the hallways of Tampa's inaccessible buildings. The photographs will be displayed as one extensive series of works.
As Abbett describes, "the photographs are reminders of the lives of the buildings, their history, and why they no longer have a purpose. The spaces experience processes in their lifetime that mirror my experiences of transformation," adding that "if someone cared for such buildings they would still be functioning and would not be in the state of decay they are currently in."
Abbett is a USF student who will be graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in May 2011. She plans on continuing her education to receive a Master of Fine Arts degree.
The Elsewhere reception will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. on Friday, August 30, in the Centre Gallery at the Marshall Student Center in room 2700, 4202 E. Fowler Ave., Tampa, Fla. It is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
For more information, please contact the Centre Gallery at 813-974-5464.

Undressing the Feminine
There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender... identity is performatively constituted by the very 'expressions' that are said to be its results.
Judith Butler
This group exhibition includes the artists Connie Imboden, Sean Fader, Misty Gamble, Anne Drew Potter, Becky Flanders, J. Aiden Simon and Bonnie Seeman; they create work that explores the nuances and varying roles that define and re-examine female sexuality. Through a variety of media, such as clay and photography, each artist portrays different facets of what it means to be feminine in the 21st century. At times self referential, while at other times addressing more universal concerns, their artistic approaches range from the humorous to the profound.

The Florida Holocaust Museum Presents
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures
Sat., May 22 - Sun., August 15, 2010
The Florida Holocaust Museum is pleased to present its summer exhibition,
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures. The exhibition opens on Sat., May 22 and runs through Sat., Aug. 15, 2010.
The exhibition includes the artist's (dis)Placement installation.
The Opening Reception for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures, featuring an Artist Talk and light refreshments, is
Sat., May 22 at 6:30 p.m. Please RSVP to: 727.820.0100, ext. 236 by May 17.
In this work and her other installations, Connell deals with the burden of her Holocaust survivor grandparents' memories and how
their trauma manifested itself in subsequent generations. The burden is so heavy that Connell's figures appear to sink into the walls
and floors of the gallery. They have an unfinished appearance - almost as though they are still wet clay. I want the sense that it
could all go splat, but also that they're malleable, Keys explains. They can change.
Connell received her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from The Maryland Institute College of Art in 2002 and her Master of Fine Arts (MFA)
from Ohio University in 2009. She was named a top Emerging Artist of the by Ceramics Monthly Magazine in May, 2009.
Connell's work has been on view in numerous solo and group exhibitions at galleries including the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Minnesota;
The Clay Studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the Herron Gallery in Indianapolis, Indiana; the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft in
Louisville, Kentucky and The Society for Contemporary Craft in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her work was recently part of Portraiture
Beyond Likeness which was exhibited at the Wayne Art Center in Wayne, Pennsylvania.
Andréa Keys Connell is an Assistant Professor of Ceramics at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. In addition to teaching and
exhibiting her work, she presents lectures that correlate with her interests in the study of intergenerational trauma and third generation
Holocaust survivors. Her sculptures and writings are driven by a desire to investigate how an individual's personal history affects their
identity, behaviors and actions.
Community Partners for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures are Mindy Solomon and the Jewish Federation of Pinellas and
Pasco Counties.
Images of sculptures from the exhibition are available. Please send you request to jsherman@flholocaustmuseum.org <
Also on view at the Florida Holocaust Museum is Perpetrators; the artist is Sid Chafetz. The exhibition runs through Sun., Aug. 29.
Admission to the Florida Holocaust Museum (FHM) is $14 for adults; discounted admission is offered to seniors, students, adult and
student groups, and AAA members. Admission is free to active duty Military personnel, FHM members and children 6 and under.

Centre Gallery's Glimpses of "Elsewhere"
Tampa's unnoticed history in a photograph
Tampa's abandoned buildings decay unnoticed, taking on human traits of loss, abandonment, and aging. Artist Nicole Abbett enters such environments to link their documentation to personal exploration, and to share in a one-time show the lives and secrets of buildings that would either wise go undocumented.
From July 26 through August 6, the Centre Gallery at the University of South Florida will host Elsewhere; an exhibit of photographs, taken with a large format camera, that will transport viewers into the hallways of Tampa's inaccessible buildings. The photographs will be displayed as one extensive series of works.
As Abbett describes, "the photographs are reminders of the lives of the buildings, their history, and why they no longer have a purpose. The spaces experience processes in their lifetime that mirror my experiences of transformation," adding that "if someone cared for such buildings they would still be functioning and would not be in the state of decay they are currently in."
Abbett is a USF student who will be graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in May 2011. She plans on continuing her education to receive a Master of Fine Arts degree.
The Elsewhere reception will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. on Friday, August 30, in the Centre Gallery at the Marshall Student Center in room 2700, 4202 E. Fowler Ave., Tampa, Fla. It is free and open to the public. Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.
For more information, please contact the Centre Gallery at 813-974-5464.

Carolina Cleere Headlines a Trio of Wearable Art Related Exhibits
Over the years, Wearable Art has become a Bay Area phenomenon. This year, three exhibits linked thematically to the award-winning fashion show, offer a thoughtful prelude to the August 14th event.
Carolina Cleere
Carolina Cleere's mixed media narrative portraits of lost innocence offer a provocative look at the emotions involved in what is ultimately a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit. Her complex imagery draws us into a world full of allusions, while allowing the mind room to explore its own meanings.
All Dolled Up
Is an Exhibit/Silent Auction of mail-art paper dolls to benefit education programs at DFAC. Artists either used a standard paper doll template (male or female) or created their own!
Designing Kiddos
DFAC Sizzlin' Summer young artists design duds for the next generation!
All three exhibitions open on Friday July 16, 2010. An Artist's Talk begins at 6:00 pm and a reception follows from 6:30 - 8:00 pm. Admission to the Talk and Reception are FREE to DFAC members and $5 for the general public. All three exhibits run through August 14, 2010.

Sid Chafetz
Through Sun., Aug. 8, 2010
Sid Chafetz, an artist and master printmaker who dedicated his professional career to creating works of profound social significance, created
a series of portraits of what might be called "ordinary people" who executed Hitler's ghoulish plans. The artwork depicts the complicity of
industrialists, businessmen, professionals, soldiers, churchmen, physicians, lawyers and bureaucrats who implemented and executed the Nazi's
diabolical schemes. For this subject, he chose monotone lithographs as his predominate medium.

Undressing the Feminine
There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender... identity is performatively constituted by the very 'expressions' that are said to be its results.
Judith Butler
This group exhibition includes the artists Connie Imboden, Sean Fader, Misty Gamble, Anne Drew Potter, Becky Flanders, J. Aiden Simon and Bonnie Seeman; they create work that explores the nuances and varying roles that define and re-examine female sexuality. Through a variety of media, such as clay and photography, each artist portrays different facets of what it means to be feminine in the 21st century. At times self referential, while at other times addressing more universal concerns, their artistic approaches range from the humorous to the profound.

GOOD GRIEF! Teens struggling with sex, death and identity!
Jobsite Theater, resident theater company at the Straz Center (formerly TBPAC) and recipient of the 2009 Creative Loafing Best of the Bay Award for Best Theater Company, presents the "unauthorized parody" that features America's favorite cartoon gang 10 years after the events of their 50-year old comic strip. The darkly comic and poignant Dog Sees God: Confessions of a Teenage Blockhead plays the Shimberg Playhouse Aug. 5-22, 2010.
When CB's dog dies from rabies, he begins to question the existence of an afterlife. His best friend is too stoned to provide any coherent speculation. His sister has gone goth. His ex-girlfriend has recently been institutionalized, and his other friends are too inebriated to give him any sort of solace. But a chance meeting with an artistic kid, the target of this group's bullying, offers CB a peace of mind and sets in motion a friendship that will push teen angst to the very limits. Drug use, suicide, eating disorders, teen violence, rebellion and sexual identity collide and careen toward an ending that's both haunting and hopeful.
In 2004 Dog Sees God was one of the breakout hits at the New York International Fringe Festival, winning the Excellence Award for Best Overall Production, as well as Theatermania's Play Award of 2004, the GLAAD Media Award for Best Off-Off-Broadway production, Broadway.com's 2006 Audience Award for Favorite Off-Broadway Production and the 2006 HX Award for Best Play.
"Dog Sees God doesn't feel like the same old high-school-warfare schlock. The characters-teenage and reckless-are both genuinely sympathetic and unquestionably cruel. Growing more hysterical-and more harrowing-as it flows to an inevitable, uncomfortable end, this taut comedy manages to make tired clichés about stoners and popular homecoming airheads funny and endearing." -NY Magazine.
Dog Sees God features Shawn Paonessa as CB, Kari Goetz as CB's Sister, Jason Vaughan Evans as Van, Summer Bohnenkamp-Jenkins as Van's Sister, Richard Kennedy as Matt, Spencer Meyers as Beethoven, Meg Heimstead as Marcy and Katrina Stevenson as Tricia. Dog Sees God is directed by David M. Jenkins with a lighting and set design by Brian Smallheer.
Dog Sees God runs Aug. 5-22 in the Shimberg Playhouse at the David A. Straz Jr. Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets are priced $24.50 and are available at the TBPAC Ticket Office window, by calling 813.229.STAR or online at TBPAC.ORG. $10 rush tickets will be available for students, seniors and military with cash and a valid ID as of 30 minutes to curtain, and there is a specially priced preview performance Wed., Aug. 4, with all seats at $10.
DOG SEES GOD contains adult language, subject matter, violence and drug use. This show is for adult audiences only.
DOG SEES GOD has not been authorized or approved in any manner by the Charles M. Schulz Estate or United Features Syndicate, which have no responsibility for its content.

Familiar: IMAGE around the house
Tampa Residents Create Community
Every Sunday, a group of young Tampa residents, coined "The Everyday Art Society," meet to discuss one thing - community. The group hopes to create an intriguing atmosphere by hosting the upcoming event, "Familiar: IMAGE around the house" - a night of art, music, performance, and coffee.
A follow-up to the former EPILOGUE coffeehouse and IMAGE art shows, "Familiar: IMAGE around the house" will feature local artistic talent. This family-friendly event will offer community inside a unique venue - a house at 5308 Mission Hills Ave. It will take place from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m. on Friday, August 6.
Artwork will cover the walls inside the home, while outside music will drift among the trees. The theme of the evening will capture the concept of domestic space and community. Normally a community space to Burmese refugees, the International House will open its doors to culture and creativity.
The show was inspired by local artist and recent University of South Florida graduate, Jessica Luttrull. She leads "The Everyday Art Society" and challenges members to be community-minded. Luttrull previously coordinated EPILOGUE and three IMAGE art shows that have brought local artists and musicians from USF and the Tampa Bay area together for group exhibitions at this venue.
The evening will use many forms of art to build better community among Tampa residents. "I hope this show can be one of many others that change the face of the arts in Tampa and give residents something to share," said Luttrull.
"Familiar: IMAGE around the house" will be held at 10002 N. 56th St., Temple Terrace, Fla., 33617. This event is free and open to the public. Pastries, cookies and coffee will be provided.
For more information, please call Emma Hauser at (727) 543-0981.

Carolina Cleere Headlines a Trio of Wearable Art Related Exhibits
Over the years, Wearable Art has become a Bay Area phenomenon. This year, three exhibits linked thematically to the award-winning fashion show, offer a thoughtful prelude to the August 14th event.
Carolina Cleere
Carolina Cleere's mixed media narrative portraits of lost innocence offer a provocative look at the emotions involved in what is ultimately a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit. Her complex imagery draws us into a world full of allusions, while allowing the mind room to explore its own meanings.
All Dolled Up
Is an Exhibit/Silent Auction of mail-art paper dolls to benefit education programs at DFAC. Artists either used a standard paper doll template (male or female) or created their own!
Designing Kiddos
DFAC Sizzlin' Summer young artists design duds for the next generation!
All three exhibitions open on Friday July 16, 2010. An Artist's Talk begins at 6:00 pm and a reception follows from 6:30 - 8:00 pm. Admission to the Talk and Reception are FREE to DFAC members and $5 for the general public. All three exhibits run through August 14, 2010.

Sid Chafetz
Through Sun., Aug. 8, 2010
Sid Chafetz, an artist and master printmaker who dedicated his professional career to creating works of profound social significance, created
a series of portraits of what might be called "ordinary people" who executed Hitler's ghoulish plans. The artwork depicts the complicity of
industrialists, businessmen, professionals, soldiers, churchmen, physicians, lawyers and bureaucrats who implemented and executed the Nazi's
diabolical schemes. For this subject, he chose monotone lithographs as his predominate medium.

Undressing the Feminine
There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender... identity is performatively constituted by the very 'expressions' that are said to be its results.
Judith Butler
This group exhibition includes the artists Connie Imboden, Sean Fader, Misty Gamble, Anne Drew Potter, Becky Flanders, J. Aiden Simon and Bonnie Seeman; they create work that explores the nuances and varying roles that define and re-examine female sexuality. Through a variety of media, such as clay and photography, each artist portrays different facets of what it means to be feminine in the 21st century. At times self referential, while at other times addressing more universal concerns, their artistic approaches range from the humorous to the profound.

The Florida Holocaust Museum Presents
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures
Sat., May 22 - Sun., August 15, 2010
The Florida Holocaust Museum is pleased to present its summer exhibition,
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures. The exhibition opens on Sat., May 22 and runs through Sat., Aug. 15, 2010.
The exhibition includes the artist's (dis)Placement installation.
The Opening Reception for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures, featuring an Artist Talk and light refreshments, is
Sat., May 22 at 6:30 p.m. Please RSVP to: 727.820.0100, ext. 236 by May 17.
In this work and her other installations, Connell deals with the burden of her Holocaust survivor grandparents' memories and how
their trauma manifested itself in subsequent generations. The burden is so heavy that Connell's figures appear to sink into the walls
and floors of the gallery. They have an unfinished appearance - almost as though they are still wet clay. I want the sense that it
could all go splat, but also that they're malleable, Keys explains. They can change.
Connell received her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from The Maryland Institute College of Art in 2002 and her Master of Fine Arts (MFA)
from Ohio University in 2009. She was named a top Emerging Artist of the by Ceramics Monthly Magazine in May, 2009.
Connell's work has been on view in numerous solo and group exhibitions at galleries including the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Minnesota;
The Clay Studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the Herron Gallery in Indianapolis, Indiana; the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft in
Louisville, Kentucky and The Society for Contemporary Craft in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her work was recently part of Portraiture
Beyond Likeness which was exhibited at the Wayne Art Center in Wayne, Pennsylvania.
Andréa Keys Connell is an Assistant Professor of Ceramics at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. In addition to teaching and
exhibiting her work, she presents lectures that correlate with her interests in the study of intergenerational trauma and third generation
Holocaust survivors. Her sculptures and writings are driven by a desire to investigate how an individual's personal history affects their
identity, behaviors and actions.
Community Partners for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures are Mindy Solomon and the Jewish Federation of Pinellas and
Pasco Counties.
Images of sculptures from the exhibition are available. Please send you request to jsherman@flholocaustmuseum.org <
Also on view at the Florida Holocaust Museum is Perpetrators; the artist is Sid Chafetz. The exhibition runs through Sun., Aug. 29.
Admission to the Florida Holocaust Museum (FHM) is $14 for adults; discounted admission is offered to seniors, students, adult and
student groups, and AAA members. Admission is free to active duty Military personnel, FHM members and children 6 and under.
Museum hours are 10 a.m. - 5 p.m., Monday through Sunday; the last admission is 3:30 p.m. Please call, (727) 820-0100, or

Fraternal twins Mae and Jake own a dodgy beach bar and massage parlor. When they learn a hurricane is on the way, they do what comes naturally - throw a party and sing some karaoke. However, the forces of chaos, destruction, unrequited love, and poisonous hotdogs threaten to destroy everything. Can our heroes overcome insanity and mortal peril, ride the storm, and emerge unscathed?

Carolina Cleere Headlines a Trio of Wearable Art Related Exhibits
Over the years, Wearable Art has become a Bay Area phenomenon. This year, three exhibits linked thematically to the award-winning fashion show, offer a thoughtful prelude to the August 14th event.
Carolina Cleere
Carolina Cleere's mixed media narrative portraits of lost innocence offer a provocative look at the emotions involved in what is ultimately a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit. Her complex imagery draws us into a world full of allusions, while allowing the mind room to explore its own meanings.
All Dolled Up
Is an Exhibit/Silent Auction of mail-art paper dolls to benefit education programs at DFAC. Artists either used a standard paper doll template (male or female) or created their own!
Designing Kiddos
DFAC Sizzlin' Summer young artists design duds for the next generation!
All three exhibitions open on Friday July 16, 2010. An Artist's Talk begins at 6:00 pm and a reception follows from 6:30 - 8:00 pm. Admission to the Talk and Reception are FREE to DFAC members and $5 for the general public. All three exhibits run through August 14, 2010.

FAR AWAY
By Caryl Churchill
August 5-15
A bonus play for the summer, coproduced with Revolve Theatre.
Something nasty is afoot at aunty's house - but that is just the beginning of a chilling descent into war and paranoia.
In Far Away, Obie-winning playwright Caryl Churchill (A Number, Cloud 9, Mad Forest) presents a chilling dystopian vision of what happens when atrocities are committed and the world is allowed to go mad.

The Florida Holocaust Museum Presents
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures
Sat., May 22 - Sun., August 15, 2010
The Florida Holocaust Museum is pleased to present its summer exhibition,
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures. The exhibition opens on Sat., May 22 and runs through Sat., Aug. 15, 2010.
The exhibition includes the artist's (dis)Placement installation.
The Opening Reception for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures, featuring an Artist Talk and light refreshments, is
Sat., May 22 at 6:30 p.m. Please RSVP to: 727.820.0100, ext. 236 by May 17.
In this work and her other installations, Connell deals with the burden of her Holocaust survivor grandparents' memories and how
their trauma manifested itself in subsequent generations. The burden is so heavy that Connell's figures appear to sink into the walls
and floors of the gallery. They have an unfinished appearance - almost as though they are still wet clay. I want the sense that it
could all go splat, but also that they're malleable, Keys explains. They can change.
Connell received her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from The Maryland Institute College of Art in 2002 and her Master of Fine Arts (MFA)
from Ohio University in 2009. She was named a top Emerging Artist of the by Ceramics Monthly Magazine in May, 2009.
Connell's work has been on view in numerous solo and group exhibitions at galleries including the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Minnesota;
The Clay Studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the Herron Gallery in Indianapolis, Indiana; the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft in
Louisville, Kentucky and The Society for Contemporary Craft in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her work was recently part of Portraiture
Beyond Likeness which was exhibited at the Wayne Art Center in Wayne, Pennsylvania.
Andréa Keys Connell is an Assistant Professor of Ceramics at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. In addition to teaching and
exhibiting her work, she presents lectures that correlate with her interests in the study of intergenerational trauma and third generation
Holocaust survivors. Her sculptures and writings are driven by a desire to investigate how an individual's personal history affects their
identity, behaviors and actions.
Community Partners for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures are Mindy Solomon and the Jewish Federation of Pinellas and
Pasco Counties.
Images of sculptures from the exhibition are available. Please send you request to jsherman@flholocaustmuseum.org <
Also on view at the Florida Holocaust Museum is Perpetrators; the artist is Sid Chafetz. The exhibition runs through Sun., Aug. 29.

Carolina Cleere Headlines a Trio of Wearable Art Related Exhibits
Over the years, Wearable Art has become a Bay Area phenomenon. This year, three exhibits linked thematically to the award-winning fashion show, offer a thoughtful prelude to the August 14th event.
Carolina Cleere
Carolina Cleere's mixed media narrative portraits of lost innocence offer a provocative look at the emotions involved in what is ultimately a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit. Her complex imagery draws us into a world full of allusions, while allowing the mind room to explore its own meanings.
All Dolled Up
Is an Exhibit/Silent Auction of mail-art paper dolls to benefit education programs at DFAC. Artists either used a standard paper doll template (male or female) or created their own!
Designing Kiddos
DFAC Sizzlin' Summer young artists design duds for the next generation!
All three exhibitions open on Friday July 16, 2010. An Artist's Talk begins at 6:00 pm and a reception follows from 6:30 - 8:00 pm. Admission to the Talk and Reception are FREE to DFAC members and $5 for the general public. All three exhibits run through August 14, 2010.

Undressing the Feminine
There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender... identity is performatively constituted by the very 'expressions' that are said to be its results.
Judith Butler
This group exhibition includes the artists Connie Imboden, Sean Fader, Misty Gamble, Anne Drew Potter, Becky Flanders, J. Aiden Simon and Bonnie Seeman; they create work that explores the nuances and varying roles that define and re-examine female sexuality. Through a variety of media, such as clay and photography, each artist portrays different facets of what it means to be feminine in the 21st century. At times self referential, while at other times addressing more universal concerns, their artistic approaches range from the humorous to the profound.

Fraternal twins Mae and Jake own a dodgy beach bar and massage parlor. When they learn a hurricane is on the way, they do what comes naturally - throw a party and sing some karaoke. However, the forces of chaos, destruction, unrequited love, and poisonous hotdogs threaten to destroy everything. Can our heroes overcome insanity and mortal peril, ride the storm, and emerge unscathed?

Carolina Cleere Headlines a Trio of Wearable Art Related Exhibits
Over the years, Wearable Art has become a Bay Area phenomenon. This year, three exhibits linked thematically to the award-winning fashion show, offer a thoughtful prelude to the August 14th event.
They REALLY like it HOT at the Dunedin Fine Art Center
By the 6th year of many successful events, the organizers are starting to coast a little bit… resting on their laurels. Not so with the Dunedin Fine Art Center's incredibly successful Wearable ART Fashion Show, now in its 6th year. "We wouldn't dare do that," confesses Kaya Jill, the founder of the event. "People have REALLY high expectations of us and that only makes us want to make Wearable ART even better and more exciting," she adds.
Better and more exciting is hard to imagine after a year shows that have featured raw meat as body adornment, alarming breasts and sell-out after sell-out, but Jill promises that and more. "We have new designers, and some repeating favorites with more new and exciting work. Along with the enhanced venue, there's live music at an after-party that will feature Have Gun, Will Travel," explained Jill. "We expect another sell-out and just an incredible show! You're seeing more and more fashion shows now around town. We consider that the greatest compliment."
Wearable ART was indeed one of the first in the area 6 years ago to showcase a growing contingent of artists working in fashion related ways. It continues that tradition in its sixth year featuring Kim & Rick Brinklow, Patti Coleman, Marsha Goins, Candy Barnette & Deborah Kynes, Joseph Mastropaolo & Vicki Rich and Donna Mason Sweigart as well as bringing back Sheree Lorraine, Ivana Ska and perennial crowd pleasers Frank Strunk III and Rogerio Martins with new and exciting work.
Apparently DFAC means it when they say, BIGGER and BETTER! Tickets this year are $15 general admission, with reserved seating going for $50 or $75. If past years are any indication, you'll want to score your tickets early, while they're still available.
Wearable ART 6 - August 14th, 2010 at 7:30 pm - Runway Show starts at 9:00 pm. After- party to follow.
for more info visit www.dfac.org, call 727-298-DFAC, or email kaya@dfac.org <
Carolina Cleere
Carolina Cleere's mixed media narrative portraits of lost innocence offer a provocative look at the emotions involved in what is ultimately a celebration of the resilience of the human spirit. Her complex imagery draws us into a world full of allusions, while allowing the mind room to explore its own meanings.
All Dolled Up
Is an Exhibit/Silent Auction of mail-art paper dolls to benefit education programs at DFAC. Artists either used a standard paper doll template (male or female) or created their own!
Designing Kiddos
DFAC Sizzlin' Summer young artists design duds for the next generation!
All three exhibitions open on Friday July 16, 2010. An Artist's Talk begins at 6:00 pm and a reception follows from 6:30 - 8:00 pm. Admission to the Talk and Reception are FREE to DFAC members and $5 for the general public. All three exhibits run through August 14, 2010.

Undressing the Feminine
There is no gender identity behind the expressions of gender... identity is performatively constituted by the very 'expressions' that are said to be its results.
Judith Butler
This group exhibition includes the artists Connie Imboden, Sean Fader, Misty Gamble, Anne Drew Potter, Becky Flanders, J. Aiden Simon and Bonnie Seeman; they create work that explores the nuances and varying roles that define and re-examine female sexuality. Through a variety of media, such as clay and photography, each artist portrays different facets of what it means to be feminine in the 21st century. At times self referential, while at other times addressing more universal concerns, their artistic approaches range from the humorous to the profound.

The Florida Holocaust Museum Presents
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures
Sat., May 22 - Sun., August 15, 2010
The Florida Holocaust Museum is pleased to present its summer exhibition,
Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures. The exhibition opens on Sat., May 22 and runs through Sat., Aug. 15, 2010.
The exhibition includes the artist's (dis)Placement installation.
The Opening Reception for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures, featuring an Artist Talk and light refreshments, is
Sat., May 22 at 6:30 p.m. Please RSVP to: 727.820.0100, ext. 236 by May 17.
In this work and her other installations, Connell deals with the burden of her Holocaust survivor grandparents' memories and how
their trauma manifested itself in subsequent generations. The burden is so heavy that Connell's figures appear to sink into the walls
and floors of the gallery. They have an unfinished appearance - almost as though they are still wet clay. I want the sense that it
could all go splat, but also that they're malleable, Keys explains. They can change.
Connell received her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) from The Maryland Institute College of Art in 2002 and her Master of Fine Arts (MFA)
from Ohio University in 2009. She was named a top Emerging Artist of the by Ceramics Monthly Magazine in May, 2009.
Connell's work has been on view in numerous solo and group exhibitions at galleries including the Archie Bray Foundation in Helena, Minnesota;
The Clay Studio in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the Herron Gallery in Indianapolis, Indiana; the Kentucky Museum of Art and Craft in
Louisville, Kentucky and The Society for Contemporary Craft in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Her work was recently part of Portraiture
Beyond Likeness which was exhibited at the Wayne Art Center in Wayne, Pennsylvania.
Andréa Keys Connell is an Assistant Professor of Ceramics at Longwood University in Farmville, Virginia. In addition to teaching and
exhibiting her work, she presents lectures that correlate with her interests in the study of intergenerational trauma and third generation
Holocaust survivors. Her sculptures and writings are driven by a desire to investigate how an individual's personal history affects their
identity, behaviors and actions.
Community Partners for Andréa Keys Connell: Ceramic Sculptures are Mindy Solomon and the Jewish Federation of Pinellas and
Pasco Counties.
Images of sculptures from the exhibition are available. Please send you request to jsherman@flholocaustmuseum.org <
Also on view at the Florida Holocaust Museum is Perpetrators; the artist is Sid Chafetz. The exhibition runs through Sun., Aug. 29.
Admission to the Florida Holocaust Museum (FHM) is $14 for adults; discounted admission is offered to seniors, students, adult and
student groups, and AAA members. Admission is free to active duty Military personnel, FHM members and children 6 and under.
Museum hours are 10 a.m. - 5 p.m., Monday through Sunday; the last admission is 3:30 p.m. Please call, (727) 820-0100, or

Fraternal twins Mae and Jake own a dodgy beach bar and massage parlor. When they learn a hurricane is on the way, they do what comes naturally - throw a party and sing some karaoke. However, the forces of chaos, destruction, unrequited love, and poisonous hotdogs threaten to destroy everything. Can our heroes overcome insanity and mortal peril, ride the storm, and emerge unscathed?

Art Spaces:
Cosme Herrera, Jo Milic, Raymond Gonzalez and David Hicks
August 21 - September 25, 2010
OPENING RECEPTION:
August 21, 2010
Artist's Talk 6:00 pm
Reception 6:30-8:30 pm
Carving an Art Space at the Mindy Solomon Gallery!
Art serves many purposes in our society as well as enriching our personal lives. Living with art can be both challenging and deeply satisfying. With the boundaries of art, craft and design blurred, paintings, one-of-a-kind furniture and sculptural objects potentially inform and ultimately create a unique home environment. Whether functional or purely decorative, the artists presented in Art Spaces offer work in a wide range of media that speak to the idea of form and function in the living environment.
Cosme Herrera, through a vibrant graphic style utilizing patterned vinyl contact paper, aims to create a universal language using a system of logos, signs and symbols that manifest the use of metaphors and parables. His narratives explore life and death through the various relationships the characters and objects share ecologically, industrially, and spiritually. "I am very interested in the landscape. New technologies and contemporary materials have broadened our ideas of utility for our lands, virtually and physically, blending artifice with nature to create a neovista." He resides and works in Brooklyn, New York.
David Hick's accumulated sculptural forms are informed, in part, by his attraction to agricultural environments, machinery, structures and natural vegetation. The mystery of his objects, lie in part, in the interpretive possibilities of associating his sculptures to objects hanging from trees, buried in the dirt or rusting in an abandoned shed. The understandings of organic and manmade mechanical forms explain the natural processes of agricultural and seasonal cycles; growth and decay.
Jo Milic, an artist/designer, incorporates his architectural training to design and construct dynamic, functional custom furnishings. He takes pleasure in the nuanced textures and colors of wood grains along with manmade materials such as stainless steel and glass. He has an inherent sense of unifying a home environment with the furniture he fabricates specific to the space.
A vivid glaze palette coupled with a sensuous design/pop sensibility is the hallmark of Raymond Gonzalez's art. He explores the interrelation of childhood and adult play coupled with desire. This interaction reflects the importance-and intrigue-of male and female relationships.
The Collectibles series confronts ideas of beauty in the surfaces and ornamentation of the art object. The concept behind Collectibles is an approach to making toys that reference the obsessive desire to collect. The lush surfaces transcend their use as playthings. The objects provide a sense of escapism, allowing the viewer to drift back to an earlier time.
The artists featured in Art Spaces create work that is visually exciting as well as unified through form, surface and texture. Each object is physically arresting in beauty as well as providing narrative content to stimulate ones imagination.

Art serves many purposes in our society as well as enriching our personal lives. Living with art can be both challenging and deeply satisfying. With the boundaries of art, craft and design blurred, paintings, one-of-a-kind furniture and sculptural objects potentially inform and ultimately create a unique home environment. Whether functional or purely decorative, the artists presented in Art Spaces offer work in a wide range of media that speak to the idea of form and function in the living environment.
Cosme Herrera, through a vibrant graphic style utilizing patterned vinyl contact paper, aims to create a universal language using a system of logos, signs and symbols that manifest the use of metaphors and parables. His narratives explore life and death through the various relationships the characters and objects share ecologically, industrially, and spiritually. "I am very interested in the landscape. New technologies and contemporary materials have broadened our ideas of utility for our lands, virtually and physically, blending artifice with nature to create a neovista." He resides and works in Brooklyn, New York.
David Hick's accumulated sculptural forms are informed, in part, by his attraction to agricultural environments, machinery, structures and natural vegetation. The mystery of his objects, lie in part, in the interpretive possibilities of associating his sculptures to objects hanging from trees, buried in the dirt or rusting in an abandoned shed. The understandings of organic and manmade mechanical forms explain the natural processes of agricultural and seasonal cycles; growth and decay.
Jo Milic, an artist/designer, incorporates his architectural training to design and construct dynamic, functional custom furnishings. He takes pleasure in the nuanced textures and colors of wood grains along with manmade materials such as stainless steel and glass. He has an inherent sense of unifying a home environment with the furniture he fabricates specific to the space.
A vivid glaze palette coupled with a sensuous design/pop sensibility is the hallmark of Raymond Gonzalez's art. He explores the interrelation of childhood and adult play coupled with desire. This interaction reflects the importance-and intrigue-of male and female relationships.
The Collectibles series confronts ideas of beauty in the surfaces and ornamentation of the art object. The concept behind Collectibles is an approach to making toys that reference the obsessive desire to collect. The lush surfaces transcend their use as playthings. The objects provide a sense of escapism, allowing the viewer to drift back to an earlier time.
The artists featured in Art Spaces create work that is visually exciting as well as unified through form, surface and texture. Each object is physically arresting in beauty as well as providing narrative content to stimulate ones imagination.

Art serves many purposes in our society as well as enriching our personal lives. Living with art can be both challenging and deeply satisfying. With the boundaries of art, craft and design blurred, paintings, one-of-a-kind furniture and sculptural objects potentially inform and ultimately create a unique home environment. Whether functional or purely decorative, the artists presented in Art Spaces offer work in a wide range of media that speak to the idea of form and function in the living environment.
Cosme Herrera, through a vibrant graphic style utilizing patterned vinyl contact paper, aims to create a universal language using a system of logos, signs and symbols that manifest the use of metaphors and parables. His narratives explore life and death through the various relationships the characters and objects share ecologically, industrially, and spiritually. "I am very interested in the landscape. New technologies and contemporary materials have broadened our ideas of utility for our lands, virtually and physically, blending artifice with nature to create a neovista." He resides and works in Brooklyn, New York.
David Hick's accumulated sculptural forms are informed, in part, by his attraction to agricultural environments, machinery, structures and natural vegetation. The mystery of his objects, lie in part, in the interpretive possibilities of associating his sculptures to objects hanging from trees, buried in the dirt or rusting in an abandoned shed. The understandings of organic and manmade mechanical forms explain the natural processes of agricultural and seasonal cycles; growth and decay.
Jo Milic, an artist/designer, incorporates his architectural training to design and construct dynamic, functional custom furnishings. He takes pleasure in the nuanced textures and colors of wood grains along with manmade materials such as stainless steel and glass. He has an inherent sense of unifying a home environment with the furniture he fabricates specific to the space.
A vivid glaze palette coupled with a sensuous design/pop sensibility is the hallmark of Raymond Gonzalez's art. He explores the interrelation of childhood and adult play coupled with desire. This interaction reflects the importance-and intrigue-of male and female relationships.
The Collectibles series confronts ideas of beauty in the surfaces and ornamentation of the art object. The concept behind Collectibles is an approach to making toys that reference the obsessive desire to collect. The lush surfaces transcend their use as playthings. The objects provide a sense of escapism, allowing the viewer to drift back to an earlier time.
The artists featured in Art Spaces create work that is visually exciting as well as unified through form, surface and texture. Each object is physically arresting in beauty as well as providing narrative content to stimulate ones imagination.
