The Experience, Alameda: Frank Bette Center for the Arts New Shows

The Experience:

Besties + The Egret-Making Contact Shows Open!

  • June 4th – Aug 7th Besties + Egret – Making Contact Shows
  • Virtual Opening Reception Friday June 11, 7-9 pm
  • 7pm Besties Show Main Gallery Opening Reception
  • 7:30pm Egret – Making Contact Signature Gallery Opening Reception

What does it mean to be ‘Besties’? Ask any dog owner. Frank Bette Center for the Arts is known for its wonderful Gallery of Pet Portraits. This summer FBCA’s Main Gallery features artists’ captures of their Besties through August 7. 16 artists are showing  their works about companions, companionship, and caring for each other. It’s about hanging out with a best buddy.

Ellie Fidler, a Berkeley artist and painter showcases three pieces in this exhibit, one of which is titled ‘Polar Bear & Red Dog’ (featured here, print of an original painting, framed 11″x14″).

Egret – Making Contact captures through photography the striking personalities of egrets at home in cities of the San Francisco Bay Area. During the opening reception photographer Gerry Traucht will also show a couple of short video clips  of the egrets, the babies, and nests that you cannot see from the ground.

The Frank Bette Center for the Arts show dovetails with the annual return of these magical birds to Alameda’s Bay Farm Island. Every spring through summer a joyous —clatter from a tribe of great and snowy egrets overflows into Alameda, mating, building nests, feeding and teaching their young.  Gerry Traucht is a Bay Area photographer, focusing on birds and dogs and has been recognized by the City of Berkeley by proclamation for his environmental and creative contributions. Having a show in the Signature Gallery is a privilege of being a FBCA member.

The Experience, Alameda: Rhythmix Cultural Works New Exhibit

The Experience:

Spring Performance: Meet Rupy!

You can meet Rupy C. Tut, one of the four featured artists in Rhythmix’s Spring Performance, Art & Learning Gallery Exhibit at the Virtual Reception Friday, April 16th @ 7 pm on Zoom. RSVP below for the link.

You will find her illuminating because Rupy, born in Punjab, India, is an Oakland based calligrapher and painter dissecting historical and contemporary displacement narratives around identity, belonging, and gender.

Her work engages in the strict practice of traditional materials, calligraphy, and methodology with Indian ‘miniature painting’, as she adds contemporary images and characters to a centuries old visual language.

Inspired by the Rhythmix PAL program and sponsored by Alameda Education Foundation’s Art Across the Island, the Spring 2021 PAL Gallery brings together four visual artists, Malik Seneferu, Sharon Virtue, Rupy C. Tut, and Maryln Mori, whose work celebrates the local cultures and communities that make living in the Bay Area so rich.

It’s free! Sign up now! https://www.rhythmix.org/events/pal-gallery-spring-2021/
