Cut, Paste, Post

Azhderian, Brockley, & Bear Exhibit
at Quicksilver

June 30—August 6, 2006

Wooden assemblage and small sculpture, collage, and fine art postcards highlight Quicksilver’s current exhibition beginning June 30th.

"Cut, Paste, Post" features small "fractured" animal sculptures of ceramic, wood, and stainless steel by San Diego sculptor John Brockley; intimate assembled collages of glass mosaic, child size furniture, and small cabinets by mixed media artist Bear of Santa Rosa; and wood and mixed media collage by Alan Azhderian, Sebastopol.

The three artists will also show a very special selection of "postcard" art which they individually created and then sent back and forth to each other through the US mail.

Bear, a full-time artist and part-time janitor, will exhibit her work for the first time in Sonoma County. With a background in drawing and graphics as well as ceramics and assemblage, she attended the California College of Arts and Crafts, but considers herself to be largely a self-taught artist. Brockley, with an MFA in printmaking, presently lives and makes sculpture in southern California. Alan Azhderian, also a well known Sonoma County art instructor, has exhibited extensively in California and the greater United States and has degrees in both printmaking and drawing.
