Gallery owner/curator Amanda Magnetta-Ottatti gave the artists, from as far as away as Berlin and as local as South Florida, minimal direction. As a result, she’s not sure what they will come up with. “Each artist is so different from the others,” she says. “None do the same thing, so it will be interesting to see them displayed together.” Artwork from Megan Bogonovich, Mark Errol, Kit Lane, Ninon, Crissy Penuel, and Rosanna Pereyra will include the usual hand-stitched, stuffed figures that are often on display (and made at the gallery each month during its StitchBird Workshops), plus ceramic figurines that, if they weren’t so quirky, wouldn’t look out of place in the display case in Grandma’s living room.
The exhibit will be on display through September 25 at Bear and Bird Boutique + Gallery, located at 4566 N. University Drive in Lauderhill. Visit bearandbird.com, or call 954-748-0181.
Sat., Aug. 7, 7 p.m.; Sundays, noon; Mondays-Thursdays, Saturdays, 11 a.m. Starts: Aug. 7. Continues through Sept. 25, 2010
