The gallery is located at 1018 Main Street in Redwood City, the reception is on Saturday August 14th from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. in conjunction with Redwood City’s Second Saturday Artwalk.
The Main Gallery, an artist co-op was established in 2000 by an ambitious group of artists working toward creating a gallery that presents strong dynamic work to the community. It is located in a charming historic Victorian cottage situated next to Alana’s restaurant with a lovely courtyard for outdoor breakfast and lunch.
Susan Wolf is showing her porcelain “celebration cups” and Doris Fischer-Colbrie is showing some new vases, which as she states, “Present flowers well, perfect for a birthday celebration.” And one of our newest artists, Catherine Merril is exhibiting two series of sculpted narrative tiles in Herend porcelain that she created during a May-June 2010 residency at the International Ceramics Studio in Kecskemet Hungary. The Herend porcelain is a very white sparkling porcelain world famous because of the fine ceramics created in the Herend porcelain factory. Illustrious patrons included Queen Victoria. She incorporated decorative elements inspired by all the rich architectural detail seen throughout Kecskemet. The finished pieces are titled “A Sad Hungarian Love Story”.
Please join us at the opening reception on August 14th from 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. This is your chance to find a unique “birthday gift” for your next birthday party, meet the artists and enjoy a summer evening viewing art!
