You are invited to preview INVOCATION, an exhibition of artwork and sculpture to be opened in conjunction with Art Night, the first Thursday in July at 6 -9pm.
Puppeteers from UNIMA will create an intervention at 7pm
An act of ‘Invocation’ is predicated by a shared perception. This communal agreed upon law or belief system holds with it, memories, hopes & expectations. These are formally framed in images, writing or using a set of recognizable coded symbols, rituals. Sometimes the Invocation is measured and courteous, at other times impetuous and demanding.
An artist’s ability to invoke ‘life’ in a work, to capture the ‘spirit‘of his subject and communicate his intention to the audience depends too on his capacity to share his view, achieve acclaim and the support of a receptive public.
