PopUp Art Show at the Dover Art League this weekend!

a few of the 150 plus photos I hung this weekend for the show!

 

Late last week the President of the Dover Art League (Autumn Gain) asked me if I could put together a show of my photos in time for the Old Dover Days weekend. Which is this weekend….
I said something to the effect of “uhhhhh…. sure”… My friend Winifred Way offered to help me and boy did she come through! We were going to try to figure out which 15-20 photos I wanted to get printed and framed so I got a bunch of proofs done to sort and select from… Winnie and I were going about it diligently when both of us had the same thought at about the same instant… “What happens if we hang all these proofs instead of a smaller group?”

In true Mickey Rooney “Hey Gang, lets put on a show!” fashion a plan started to come together! Winnie cut all the 6×6 mats, by hand(!!!) and we proceeded to attach the 4×4 prints to them. I had to cut the prints from the 4×6 proofs I had made before! I signed the mat boards and then Autumn and her husband and my wife Mary and I got busy hanging the prints. OMG they look amazing in the gallery!

Here’s the Description of the show I posted on Facebook earlier tonight:

David Wolanski is excited to announce a Pop Up show of 150 plus Black and White Photos during the Old Dover Days Weekend at the Dover Art League Gallery. The prints are 4×4 and mounted on 6×6 Mat board at $10 each. There will be a limited number of 8×8 Prints on 10×10 mats available too at $75 each. All of the photos were created using a toy camera and film for a cinematic, dreamlike look. If you decide to make a purchase, you can carry the photos home immediately!

The Opening Reception will be from 6-8 PM on Friday. David will be at the Dover Art League Gallery for the Reception and for the festivities downtown on Saturday from 10-5.

There will be a raffle for a brand new toy camera with a drawing Saturday at 5 PM.

This is going to be an amazing Art Weekend! The Biggs Gallery is opening their Ansel Adams show, and Park Green Gallery is showing some new Dover specific paintings too. Make a mini-Art Loop of your own and visit all three locations.

On top of that there will be Old Dover Days festivities all weekend and a Beer event on Loockerman Street Saturday too.

Downtown Dover is an exciting place this weekend!

So, if you’re local to Dover, come on out this weekend!
