Delphine Perlstein at the Maison Francaise

French artist Delphine Perlstein's opening at Anacostia's Honfleur Gallery last year was ruined by the awful events that happened at Unifest -- remember the person who ran her Volvo through the crowds of people attending the street festival, with her 8 year old in the car?

That was the night of Delphine's opening at Honfleur Gallery, and needless to say, most of the guests could not make it as there was utter chaos, road closures etc. in Anacostia that night.

But Honfleur Gallery stepped up to the plate and worked to secure the artist an exhibition at the French Embassy's Maison Francaise in DC, from May 7th to May 23rd 2008.

If you haven't been to an opening at Maison Francaise, then you're in for a pleasant surprise! Please RSVP to attend the opening reception at 6pm on May 7th. Call 202.944.6091 or email cuturel.wahsington-amba@diplomatie.gouv.fr to RSVP.
