Art Events and Activities
Saturday June 15th - Art Show & Sale 3:00 - 6:00 pm
US Bureau of Land Management - King Range Conservancy and the Shelter Cove Arts and Recreation Foundation "Artist-in-Residence" Benjamin Funke will be exhibiting work created during his time in and around Shelter Cove. The exhibition will be located at the Shelter Cove Club House, 1555 Upper Pacific.
Benjamin Funke received his MFA in Sculpture from the University of Notre Dame. He is Associate Faculty of Art at College of the Redwoods and Sculpture Technician at Humboldt State University. He serves on the board of directors of the Redwood Art Association. Ben has exhibited artworks in venues including the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington DC, Czong Institute of Contemporary Art in Seoul, South Korea and the Eastern Bloc for New Media in Montreal, Quebec.
While in residence his practice was dynamic both inside and outside the studio. Taking daily hikes through trails on the King Range, Funke produced images he describes as “microscopic in relation to the vast 68,000 acre King Range wilderness”. The photographs documenting these hikes, soaked in high contrast of the afternoon sun are often located in, on or near water. “In those locations I would stop to meditate and really become part of the environment”.
The work on view will contain a multitude of media formats including photography, sculpture, drawing and video. Most of the work exhibited will be for sale and will be available from $50 on up.
This event is free and open to the public. Wine and Beer available. This is a very unique opportunity to see this type of at. Do not miss it. Proceeds support the Shelter Cove Arts and Recreation Foundation.
Visitors to the show will receive a free coupon for discounts at Gyppo Ale and visitors who stop by Gyppo Ale will receive coupons for savings at the Art Show and Sale. Plan to visit both Gyppo Ale and the Art Show. Make it a full day at the Cove! for more information contact mmitchelltravelor@yahoo.com
