Holy Cow! Wallace Peck at the Columbus Arts Festival

Ah summer!
The trees are starting to fill out, flowers are blooming, the sun is shining, popsicles are in abundance-
Doesn't it just feel like there should be some awesome, three day long event where one could enjoy the arts scene in Columbus outside in the fresh air, perhaps take in the beauty of the Riverfront?

Good news!

You can do JUST THAT at the 2012 Columbus Arts Festival, June 1, 2 and 3!
(Huzzah!)

Does it get any better than this?

It totally does. This year, Open Door Artist, Wallace Peck was chosen by the festival to be featured as one of their emerging artists! We at Open Door are so proud of Wallace and can't wait for the rest of Columbus to get to know this amazing artist. Stop by booth M106 and say 'Hi!'

In the meantime, check out the wonderful episode of ArtZine made by WOSU's Cindy Gaillard highlighting Wallace.

Figurative Language!


Figurative Language is an exhibition of works created by three exemplary artists. Porter, Emanuele, and Peck each approach depicting the figure with a fresh perspective. Peck's concentric lines, Emanuele's bold colors and Porter's ethereal washes distinguish their work from one another. When displayed together the figures truly come to life.
