HOOSIER SALON PRE-SHOW AT SOLAR FLAIR STUDIO

Rosemary Butterbaugh is one of the feature artists at the prestigious Hoosier Salon Gallery in the Broadripple area of Indianapolis, June 16 to July 22, 2006. .She will exhibit a selection of her most important work at the show, titled “Poetry in Nature. Open House for “Poetry in Nature,” is June 16, 5:00 – 8:00 PM.

In preparation for this exhibit, Rosemary is inviting the public to help choose which 15 of her new paintings should be included in this influential show Viewers are invited choose their 5 favorite pieces large selection displayed floor to ceiling in her studio. Rosemary believes that the response of the viewer to a work of art completes the work itself; that is when the artist and viewer communicate. Viewer responses will be tallied to help choose the most effective pieces for the Hoosier Salon exhibition.

Rosemary’s work will be on display in Solar Flair Studio for First Friday, June 2, 5:00-8:00 PM and Saturday 11:00 to 4:00. Tally sheets can be picked up at the studio door during those times.

Because most of the new work has not yet been matted and framed, it is tacked up covering the entire wall of the Studio. All of the work is for sale to people in this area before it goes to Indianapolis. Offering it unframed reduces the usual prices.

In order to be chosen for a show at Hoosier Salon Gallery an artist must have been selected into at least four of their Annual Exhibitions, which are presented at the Indiana State Museum, and have received at least one award. Rosemary has received an award each of the past two years.

Hoosier Salon, one of Indiana’s most well known art organizations, will have its 82nd Annual Exhibition this year, July 31 to September 17.

Solar Flair Studio, which replaces the Gallery on Main St., is open First Friday’s and by appointment. Call 812-438-4910.
