Mino's Shining Art

I was very happy to receive an invitation to the opening of a new exhibit at Art Studio 33 in the Art Warehouse. Mino ( Minollo Menges) has a display of new work. Monroe Snook says of the artist, ”His new direction is a departure from his last exploration and is rich in a wonderful glow."


Looking deeply into the content, you care about the figures represented. "Who are they? What has put them in that position? What are their thoughts?” It does have a rich glow. Mino says he does not take his work too seriously. He has feelings like all humans, and likes to put them out in his art. I tried to ask Mino about his works and he told me, “You know Gemma, since I used to make my works for myself, because I need to catch all many things I've inside my head, I barely think about exhibits, or anything else. I just need to work and I do.”

The images are lovely and the light shines out of each one. The exhibit will be there until August 17. I love to visit the Studio33 exhibits at the Rockcliffe Conservatory. Monroe Snook, the gallerist , always invites outstanding artists to display their works. After you visit this exhibit you may like to TP down to the ground exhibit to see a retrospect of the scupts of Elros Touminen from several years ago, from Monroe’s private collection. They are placed all around the studio 33.

A Mountain, An Agave, and a Gorilla

The Rockcliffe region recently made headlines for hosting Jessica Lyon's recent meeting on Linden Lab's latest move. But more has been going on there. Gemma Cleanslate recently went to Rockcliffe Conservatory for the unveiling of Sledge Roffo’s new exhibition, "A Mountain, An Agave, and a Gorilla." Residents are invited to drop by and view the pictures of Sledge's pixel art, and more.
