Dear Friends,


You are cordially invited to attend a preview of my paintings for my upcoming solo exhibition "I FLOW LIKE WATER"  today ( Friday, October 9th) from 5:30 to 8:00 pm at Hilton | Asmus Contemporary  before the artwork is shipped to Europe. 

For many months, in addition to running Hilton | Asmus Contemporary, launching Hilton | Asmus Foto, curating nonstop photography exhibitions and designing an online store,  I have quietly been working in the wee hours of the night (or morning) on a body of paintings that will be featured in a solo exhibition at Europalia Arts Festival (a biennale in Brussels opening this month) at Galerie Qu Art the end of October.    

 
The paintings were inspired by my ongoing fascination and respect for water and the environment which has been an integral part of my life and work for quite some time.  I created a series of paintings infused with recycled plastic water bottles that I actually drank from! 

Please join me for some wine, Lagunitas beer and my mother's baklava (made with pistachios and rose water) in my studio at Hilton Asmus Contemporary.  I would love to share with you my latest works before they are shipped off to Brussels on Monday.  And, of course, you can still have a chance to see the documentary exhibition "Visions of a Magic Time" with Pattie Boyd, Henry Diltz and Carinthia West when you arrive.  

Below are details of my show along with information about Europalia Arts Festival and my gallery in Brussels, Galerie Qu Art. 

Looking forward to seeing you this Friday evening!
