The heART of Cleveland

 

The heART of Cleveland is an art exhibition and book compilation of  works by over 100 area artists.  The exhibition will open on Friday July 20th 2018 at E11even 2 gallery and feature the release of the companion book of the same name.

Scott Kraynak, author and artist, has been working relentlessly with the eclectic and diverse mix of artists who have been inspired by their hometown of Cleveland, Oh.  Kraynak says, “The heART of Cleveland is a showcase of our city’s long and proud contribution to the arts.  The book is not just about one medium or one school of art.  It celebrates all mediums, styles, and schools represented with one common link; being the city of Cleveland”.  In addition to the artwork, the book will also host other aspects of history and poetic insight to city of Cleveland.

The exhibition will feature many of the artists represented in the book, ranging in all forms of mediums.  This exhibition is free and open to the public and is family friendly.

Opening Reception July 20th 5-9p

Modern Guilt…. Who’s Got It?

Modern Guilt: New Works by Andrew Shondrick & Matt Miller is the next exhibition at E11even 2.  Modern Guilt is mix of ideas spawning from shifts in social values and constant over correction to the current state of the world in all of its good, bad and crazy.

Miller says, “Andrew and I met in art school while earning our BFA degrees at The Myers School of Art.  I think our mutual interests in Lowbrow and Pop Surreal Art (really all things deemed NOT “art school worthy”) as well as our stubbornness to only make what we wanted to make began a friendship that evolved as our personal work grew from intro level courses all the way to our final semester of advanced painting courses.”

What can guests expect from the exhibition? Andrew Shondrick says, “I wanted to take a step back and try to identify some of the subtleties of this liquid state within my own life and familiar surroundings. I am ultimately sympathetic to the human condition and our quixotic intentions. We have success and folly. We often muddle the two and can rarely tell them apart. We are doing our best, as best we know.”

The works will be in the form of paintings in the mediums of oil and acrylic paints.

These works will be on display May 18th – June 15, 2018.  The opening reception for Modern Guilt will be on May 18th  from 5-9 pm at e11even 2.
