Funky Town, an exhibition of works by Congolese artist Francklin Mbungu
The works of Francklin Mbungu (born 1972; lives and works in Kinshasa, DRC) are unique among contemporary Congolese artists. Made with intricate, hand-cut paper applied to canvas, to which the artist often adds string or ribbon to add additional volume and texture, these collages are truly magical. His subjects are often portrayed in flamboyant and funky outfits with a nod to 1970’s fashion and style. The works are bursting with color, vibrancy, and joy.
Free Congolese gift for the first 50 participants!

Elevation, Caroline Adams (upstairs)
I spent the past four years living at 8,500 feet, on the side of a mountain. I drank in the light and color, clarity and distance, movement and quiet. With each day above, below, and within the clouds, I came to not only see the landscape with my eyes, but also feel it in my body. I want these paintings to convey some of that sensation of living at elevation

Marie Darling’s Contours of Color is a new series exploring color and how personal experiences can change how we see color. Through her studies, Marie learned that our personal experiences, culture and identity influences how we see color. Using layers of acrylic, watercolors, and a variety of drawing materials, she embraced the process of color exploration. Marie tries to portray her personal experiences and love of nature through different color palettes enhanced by adding texture using yarn, thread, beads, and a variety of embroidery stitches. Marie hopes that the pieces she creates can connect the viewer to their life experiences and remind them of their relationship to color, finding their story, any story among the many layers applied to the surface.
All programs run 6:00pm - 11:00pm
