Ojai Center for the Arts Still the Scene of “Hot Summer Days, Hot Summer Nights”
By Anonymous — Monday, July 26th, 2010
There is still time to feel the heat generated at the Ojai Center for the Arts annual show, “Hot Summer Days, Hot Summer Nights.” Running through August 4, it features over 40 works in a variety of media that are sure to give you a hot flash. The work varies from Soni Wright’s oil abstraction “Alpha II,” which won this year’s first place for “hottest,” to Mary Cogswell’s heat escape, portrayed in her “Pond of Tranquilty.” Ojai Studio Artist Sylvia Raz had her usual fun with her “Ode to Leger,” a take-off on the famous French painter depicting swim-suited-beauties in triplicate. Don’t miss the showcases this month either, which hold a visual feast of color and whimsy with Shelby Harbison’s canvases, and the beautifully crafted complex computer images of Mary Ogle. Whatever you do, make time to bask in the glow of this hot, hotter, hottest show. The Center is located at 113 S. Montgomery St, Ojai and is open Tues-Sun. 12-4:00 p.m. For more information call 646-0117 or go online at ojaiartcenter.org |
