Saturday night amongst our social stops was a wonderful art opening at Tyndall Galleries in UMall of new work by Jane Filer, one of our favorite artists and one of our favorite people. The show itself was a delight. The gallery was crowded with great people. There was a drummer/percussionist playing and that seemed very appropriate — especially later when the paintings came to live and danced through and with the crowd.
Jane Filer has up a video of the dancing figures here. It’s a must see.
Sally has some great still shots of a different mask with its owner and with its creator.
Two years ago, some pioneer maskers invaded the Mall itself. They’re seen here, and here, and here and here with gallery owner Jane Tyndall and artist Jane Filer.
I just watched the video and that looks like it was a fun time. Jane Filer has another exhibition scheduled at Tyndall Galleries coming up in April and May (2009). I wonder what she’ll have planned for this one.
