Seattle to Remain Famous for Coffee and Rain
Thanksgiving Pairing Suggestion: Dessert Isn't Just a Meal
The weather is stunning and you need to burn off yesterday's celebratory beef and beer, right? Right. Luckily for you, it's First Thursday! So get off your duff, take a stroll and enjoy some free art. Here are our ten picks for tonight's walk:
G. Gibson Gallery
300 S. Washington Street
Eva Sköld Westerlind Anableps
Westerlind’s macro photos of water in nature feel slow and gooey, capturing droplets as they seemingly devour sticks, stones and everything in between.
Greg Kucera Gallery
212 Third Avenue
Tara Donovan Bubbles, Loops and Spheres: Sculpture and Works on Paper
Donovan uses bubbles, paper plates, toothpicks and rubber bands, among other things, in this exhibition of sculpture and painting.
Angela White Always a Pleasure
White's visual and sound installation finds music in ceramic tchotchkes: suspending them from strings, spinning them on old turntables, and reveling in the clinks and clangs that result
James Harris Gallery
309 A Third Avenue South
Claude Zervas
Zervas explores movement (think jellyfish, amoeba, etc.) through ghostly three-dimensional light sculptures constructed of white LEDs, wire and fluorescent light.
Shaun O’Dell PORTAL, OH! PORTAL
PORTAL closes on Saturday, so if you’ve not already checked out O’Dell’s ominous, Iconographic paintings, you should tonight.
Howard House
604 Second Avenue
Victoria Haven Iampayingattention
Like the rest of Seattle, we love Haven’s ethereal shapes and dashed lines and look forward to her return to Howard House after a 3-year hiatus.
SOIL
112 Third Avenue South
Ross Sawyers, Laura Ward and Brent Sommerhauser Home Sweet Home
Sawyers, Ward and Sommerhauser play with our conception of “home” through photographs, deconstructed household objects and salvaged pieces from abandoned homes, respectively.
Gallery4Culture
101 Prefontaine Place South
Laura Wright Independence
Wright takes a look at consumer culture and its alternatives in this piece constructed of used textiles: scraps, unraveled sweaters and old fabrics.
Gallery 110
110 South Washington Street
Cynthia Bittenfield World War II
As history geeks who get hot and bothered by archival anything, we’re thanking Bittenfield for opening up her father’s World War II scrapbook and sharing it with us in this new exhibit.
Platform
114 Third Avenue South
Ross Sawyers
Sawyers creates three-dimensional models of slightly surreal, empty interior spaces and photographs them. His large-scale prints were some of our favorites in this year’s UW MFA show at the Henry, so we’re looking forward to seeing more.
Catherine Person Gallery
319 Third Avenue South
Ron Lambert Status
The gallery turns into a multimedia playground highlighting Lambert’s sculpture, video and drawings, featuring the 27-minute video “In Still.”
Seattle Art Museum
1300 First Avenue
Everything
It’s free tonight and open until midnight. Plus, Marie Watts is in house from 5:30 – 8:30 accepting your used blankets for her “Custodian” project. Stop by, give her a blanket, tell her its story and then wander around our magnificent new SAM.
