WWA gallery Presents

The Artist Sisters: Miss Mindy & CJ Metzger
Pie in the Sky

Plus New Works by Kate McCavitt in the Project Space

Opening Reception: Friday, September 10^th, 2010 from 7- 10pm
On View: September 10^th – October 9^th, 2010

Watch the mayhem unfold this September as WWA gallery presents The Artist Sisters: Miss Mindy and CJ Metzger’s first exhibition together in almost 3 years. Open to the public, Pie in the Sky’s gallery reception is from 7- 10pm on Friday, September 10^th and runs through October 9^th.

Pie in the Sky is a state of mind. Tired by the seriousness of life, The Artist Sisters want to transcend expectations and explore spontaneous feelings of all emotions ranging from silly to sullen. Their paintings and assemblages will be constructed of wood, and will adorn everything from old pie tins to vintage objects, creating a menagerie of visual delights. Also, “A Pie for a Pie”, a silent black and white Pie-Fight film will feature not only the artists, but some familiar special guests ‘getting it in the kisser.’

Miss Mindy’s new work borders on a mix of cartoon folk and ink drawings, to her love of bizarre humor and Mae West influenced femininity. CJ Metzger’s paintings gently pull at your heartstrings and tug at your empathy glands. They are modern fairy tales told in a big unruly and wondrous world.

Joining The Artist Sisters in the Project Space will be new works entitled Shiny Pretty Things by Southern California artist Kate McCavitt.  Her stunning abstract Asian paintings render ancient charm with bold contrasting colors.

Located in the Culver City Art District, WWA gallery‘s goal is to present contemporary artists who have a figurative and illustrative style. WWA gallery presents a wide range of established and emerging artists such as Bob Dob, Ben Kehoe, KRK Ryden, Miss Mindy, CJ Metzger, Rob Corless, Jim Darling, Tina Darling, Dan Barry, Edward Robin Coronel, Jeni Yang, Tracy Tomko, Dee Chavez, Lily Mae Martin, and Julian Callos.
