I haven't finished posting about our trip to Le Marche but I've had a very busy week.
I spent every night mounting... photos for the exhibition at our local cafe'/garden centre and also some very time consuming floral photo collages to sell at the Spring Fair at the Garden Museum in a couple of weeks' time (together with our cards).
I'm not quite sure when the exhibition (entitled "Hold That Pose!") will take place (probably in late May?) but it's good to be ready.
I've decided to go for the tongue-in-cheek approach for the exhibition, for a variety of reasons: the venue (it's not a gallery but a cafe'), the audience (I'm pretty sure it will appeal to the British sense of humour), the work itself (the photos are quite a mix and some of them should make people smile) and well... myself.
So here's the short introduction:
"Pablo Bizarro is a local resident, an aspiring polymath, a bon vivant and a recluse. He was last seen in polite society a couple of years ago when he was involved with a performance of the Porcupine Players.
He achieved a City & Guild qualification in photography, and he often wonders around Europe holding staring contests and silent conversations with statues who eventually acquiesce to pose for him.
In this exhibition Pablo explores a number of themes: the capture of the familiar from an unusual point of view, the use of accidental props to transform the obvious and pepper it with irony, his fascination with the morbid and the macabre, and his never-ending quest for blue skies.
He believes that art should be for everyone, hence the very attractive pricing. Buy today a unique piece of art, lovingly mounted by Pablo himself!"
