Fort Gondo: Friday, 11 July 2008

Darkest Dreams a Lighted Way showcasing local and national artists, including Michael Bell, at Fort Gondo–Compound for the Arts in St. Louis. Free opening reception with artists 6-9 PM, July 11th, 2008. The show will run the entire month.

The all media art show features works by 18 artists from Missouri, Illinois, California, North Carolina, Texas, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Florida, Michigan, and Washington DC. Each artist uses their particular medium to portray abuse in any form, from the physical, emotional, mental, and sexual, to include topics of neglect and mental anguish.

Aunia Kahn, creator and curator of the show, describes the intense need for awareness of the difficult subject matter as an insight into the atypical release artists face as they express some of their deepest motivations, feelings and their own personal contact with the subject matter portrayed through their work.
