DREAM DUST
Paintings and Drawings Inspired by the Artist's Archives
"Throughout the years, I've kept a special drawer in my desk - an X File full of ancient ideas, plans and dreams. Some are nearly forty years old. At last, they are emerging from archived concepts into new realities. Join me in celebration of DREAM DUST, my first solo show in 35 years. Thanks go to Richard Modiano for inviting me to exhibit at Beyond Baroque. And thanks to Ric George for his love, patience and support in this crazy life." MSt
More than 100 Paintings and Drawings fill 3 Floors of Beyond Baroque's historic building in Venice, California. Psychodramas! Wild Womenz! Landsharks! Dinosaurs! Strange little creatures! Lil' Devils! Forest of the Suicides! A buttload of new eccentric work at studio prices! It's a pARTy!
Don't miss the Opening Reception. Mike's short animated film IN THE GARDEN will be screened in the theater. PLUS, Artist-in-Residence Robert Branaman will moderate short readings by old friends including Richard Modiano, Christine Tibbles-McBurney, Maureen Linehan, Christine Satris-Humphreys, and perhaps a few other surprise guests!
