The Lebowski Cycle at The OCC Frank M. Doyle Arts Pavilion – Opening night photos
Here are some photos from Saturday’s opening at the Frank M. Doyle Arts Pavilion. Thanks to everyone that came to the opening. It was quite a turnout. Thanks also to Eric Stoner for taking these photos of the evening. It was great to finally see all of these paintings in one room, and the pavilion is a perfect space for it. These shots really give a sense of the scale of the paintings, which is hard to communicate by listing the sizes on a posted image.
The show will be up for 6 weeks and I’ll be giving a gallery talk about the Lebowski Cycle at the Frank M. Doyle Arts Pavilion on Thursday, September 29th, from 7-10. More info on the show is here…
