Michael Binkley on the Art in the Garden Tour 2012
We will be one of the participants on the Art in the Garden Tour produced by the North Vancouver Community Arts Council. This annual event marries select North Shore gardens with visual and musical artists. This year, we will not have our extended “Sculpture in the Garden” show.
We will be open Saturday and Sunday, May 26 and 27, 2012 from 12 noon until 5pm daily.
As in previous years, we are a unique destination, as we are the host garden as well as the featured visual artist in the garden. We will also host photographer Alan Jeon, whose work integrates aspects of life into an expression of identity and emotions. The musicians will be harpist Collette Gariepry on Saturday and Moon Circus on Sunday.
Both the sculpture garden and the gallery will be open for the Tour. I will have a new collection of sculptures designed for outdoors on display in the garden, as well as many new smaller works in the gallery. I’ve been working one of the large white marble blocks we brought back from Italy into an abstract form which will be the centerpiece of the sculpture garden. The sweeping, flowing lines of “Il Volo” seem to defy its 2,000 lb. weight.
We look forward to seeing you here!
