Metcalfe on Tolman
One of the most unique pieces in Seven is a spectacular drawing by Ben Tolman titled "Garden of Earthly Delights."
This is one artist with a singularly interesting Crumbesque vision. The current issue of the City Paper has a terrific piece on Tolman by John Metcalfe.
Read it here.
I bought three Tolmans at DCAC's current Wall Mountables show.

Seven side effects
One of the goals that I had hoped to accomplish for Seven (besides making it a success as a fundraiser and expose WPA/C members' work), was to also drag some of my fellow gallerists through the exhibition in the hope that they could find some artists of interest to them.
Thus far, I am told of at least five artists from Seven who have been signed up or offered contracts or exhibitions by area galleries.
Cool uh?
