Mid-City Artists and Friends at Coldwell Banker

December 12, 2009

Coldwell Banker, a stylish Dupont Circle real estate agency that doubles as an art space has given its walls over to Mid-City Artists, that loose gang of artists who live and/or work in the Dupont Circle/Logan Circle/Shaw environs. The members of MCA, in turn, each invited a friend to join in this invitational exhibit, which opened Friday evening with a terrific reception - little sandwiches and everything. These guys do memorable opening reception chow so no artist need starve.

I was Ms. Sondra’s friend and my three encaustics even sold at the opening, so that was a lovely bonus. I saw some interesting stuff, including Bill Harris’s terrific monoprint, Zade Ramsey’s moving and well-wrought assemblages, Chuck Baxter’s quilt made of business cards collected at Artomatic, Tom Drymon’s beautifully subtle white painting (titled, aptly,”Floe”) and Trish Tillman’s intricate cut-paper collages all the way from New York.

So thanks to those real estate guys at Coldwell Banker. They are on 17th Street between P and Q and should be supported should you have real estate needs.
