Bring a friend! Hope you will be able to join us as we celebrate the arts!

Congratulations A.R.t Galerie! and YOU!!!

I just want to thank everyone who has attended, exhibited, participated and performed at the A.R.t Galerie over the past four years.  I am not gonna stop!  :-)  This is a lovely time, for ALL OF US!  I'm very proud of all those artists in SL who are also, mostly, RL artists as well.  Some are only RL artists, whom I've brought into SL. 

Regardless, the art is real and powerful.  It provides me with much hope and love and passion!  Thank you!!!

Cheers! -- Teo.

The first hours of A.R.t Galerie's Anniversary Celebration

 So far, we've had a fabulous turnout!  Many friends, old and new showing up.  I am so pleased to see the artists returning to A.R.t Galerie.  This celebration is for YOU!!!

bFlat is providing a gracious two hour set for us.  It's been lovely, needless to say.  :-) 

4th Anniversary Events!

It's TODAY!  A.R.t Galerie celebrates her 4th anniversary.  :-)  Here are some of the live events being held today:

• 1P - 3P SLT:  bFlat Unplugged (special 2 hour set!)
• 4P SLT: Davadean Madrigal
  
• 5P SLT:  Cylindrian Rutabaga

It's a special time for me, well, all of us!  I'm so honoured to have hosted so many talented artists throughout the years.  From now through October we have RONIN1 SHIPPE exhibiting on the main floor.  A collective of works curated by TALLULAH WINTERWOLF, "5 Good Girls & 3 Boys," on the second floor.  On the top floor, I've created a collection of various works that have been hosted at A.R.t Galerie over the years.  

Hope you can join us for the celebration.  We'll be going all day long, so pop in when you have a moment.

Cheers,  -- Teo.

Happy Anniversary, Baby!

I cannot believe that it's been four years already! A.R.t Galerie is officially four years old.  I started using Second Life in February, 2007.  I met an amazing and inspirational real life artist who drove me to the creation of A.R.t Galerie -- he was my muse.  The "A" and "R" represent the initials of our real life names.  He is a very talented still life artist.  Isn't it ironic that Still Life (SL) and Second Life (SL) would meet in this way?

Since September 2007 I have hosted over 42 artists at A.R.t Galerie.  I have had many other inspirations that helped me to develop and form my galerie into what it is today.  I feel blessed to have worked with so many talented artists.  I am honoured to have met so many gifted and talented individuals.

This exhibit, which will run through the remainder of this month through October 2011, will be quite a celebration!  I will host a new artist (to A.R.t Galerie) on the main floor:  Ronin1 Shippe.  On the middle floor, I will host a collection of work developed by another colleague in Second Life, Tallulah Winterwofl.  On the top floor, I will host a collage of various work that has exhibited at A.R.t Galerie over the years.

Our first event will be this Sunday, 21 August @ 4P SLT/PDT.  Sexy blues & jazz vocolist, bFlat Unplugged will perform LIVE for us, as we begin our celebration of the arts and the exhibiting talented artists.

Cheers!  :-)  -- Teo.

New Boston Art Colony Resident Receives Award!

New Boston Artist Moe Sandalwood has won a prize at the UWA Art Challenge. In the January 2011 round he was awarded the Workhouse & Art Place d-o-o-b Prize for his piece "Shivering Rock".

This is what the panel had to say about his piece:
"Moeuhane Sandalwood has created a fresh and unique sculpture titled "Shivering Rock." It depicts a large boulder undulating slowly, as if from the cold or from some mysterious interior force. The concept has humor, originality and a certain sense of daring and self-assurance. There is also a tangible uneasiness to it, a sort of unsettling sense of the ominous, like something that just shouldn't be happening. The execution is basic but adequate. It definitely isn't slick or flashy, but it is effective in its ability to captivate and engage the viewer. It is almost monumental in its subtlety, and deceptively simple in appearance. For these reasons, the Art Place and the Workhouse Gallery are please to recommend it for the January UWA 3D Open Art Challenge award."

He received a trophy $ 5000L$

He will have to make some room at his gallery to show it. Presently the piece can only be seen here: Driftwood Gallery, Gariepy (165, 240, 1202)

About bFlat: I have always loved to sing, and have been singing in RL since the mid '90s and online since 2004. While I also sing rock, pop, and jazz, I just have an affinity for the blues that won't go away. I've tried solo studio singing, and it's never worked for me; I need to sing to a live audience. I love to have fun and share my energy through song, and I'm pleased to have found SL!

EXHIBITING ARTISTS:

* Van Caerndow
* briawinde Magic
* r0bin Helsinki

Very fine art! Please come visit!!! Dance, Sing, Celebrate Art! :-)
Sincerely,
Teofila Matova
