Tonight I went to a really exciting exhibit called Found at The Lodge, a local gallery downtown! My fine arts advisor informed me of it in an e-mail, so I decided to check it out with my roommate, who is also an art-lover. The premise of this show was art made from found or recycled objects. We saw collages, sculptures, recycled fashion art, and video installations. Plus, we got to taste free homemade cakes, baked from a found recipe box!
Aside from the art, there was also a table set up by a co-op organization for artists. At the table they presented several found objects, and their offer was to assist you in any type of art project you would like to do with the objects. For instance, my roommate's idea was to make pinhole cameras out of the objects. She wrote down her idea, and if it is chosen they will help her make it happen!
The Lounge is a venue on Walnut street that anyone can use to exhibit artwork or give a show, but it does come with a fee. I wonder what kind of show it will host next!
