Aarhus Gallery invites the public to the opening reception for their latest group invitational show Friday October 24th from 5-8pm. Artist Books will be featured from 20 Maine and Maine related artist who specialize in the 'book' form. The show runs from October 21- November 16.

This form of creative book arts comes in many articulations and is bound only by the artists' imagination and skill. From the intricate book brooches of Anne-Claude Cotty (Stonington) to the solid cast books of Cat Schwenk (Freeport) or, from the inventive bindings in wood, metal and found objects of Peter Madden (Westbrook) contrasting the delicate traditionally flavoured, scripted pages of amazing calligraphy by Jan Owen (Belfast) and much more, this show is sure to be a page turner.

Artists include Dan Beckman, Susan Brady, Anne-Claude Cotty, Rebecca Goodale, Sherrill Hunnibell, Elizabeth Jabar, Joel Lipman, Peter Madden, Jan Owen, Abbie Read, Catherine Schwenk, Betsy Showstack, and Karin Spitfire. The work of Aarhusians Annadeene Fowler, Kevin Johnson, Mark Kelly, Richard Mann, Wesley Reddick and Willy Reddick will also be on view.

Aarhus Gallery is located at 50 Main St. Belfast, and open daily 10am-6pm. For more information and a slideshow of the current exhibit visit www.aarhusgallery.com or call 338-0001.
