AdamsArtExpose’
ART PALM SPRINGS 2017
Art Palm Springs was held for the 6th year
at the Palm Springs Convention Center
from February 16 - 19. We are fortunate to
have this yearly event promoted by Urban
Expositions in conjunction with the Palm
Springs Art Museum.
Art Palm Springs provide an opportunity to
view art works from artists throughout the
world in a variety of mediums and exhibition
formats. The works are shown through
galleries that feature the many artists that
exhibit at the show. It brings together the
exhibitors, collectors, and partners in the
arts. It does provide an opportunity for
the general public to view and interact
with artists and gallery officials to see some
emerging international and local artists as
well as see prominent art from other eras
and artists.
This year one of the new artists collaborators
that exhibited was the Binh Pho and
Kevin Wallace. These artists worked together
to produce very unique and unusual
works made from blown glass and wood,
including acrylic paint. Kevin Wallace
creates the basic shapes of the works and
Binh Pho continues the design by cutting
intricate designes into the
wood pieces and adding the design elements
to the glass works.
Another local artists group with an exhibition
was the “Joshua Treenial 2017: Event
Horizon”, which will be held from March
31 to April 2 BoxoHOUSE on Sulivan Road
in Joshua Tree and other locations around
Joshua Tree. Bernard Leibov coordinates
this project in Joshua Tree. Another local
artist with his own gallery in the Art District
on Highway 111 was the Rosenberg
Artist Gallery featured in the Daily Guide
last year.
If you have not taken the opportunity to attend
the Art Palm Springs show it is worth
putting on your calendar for next year as
you will see some outstanding world class
art and meet interesting and creative people
for about the price of a movie ticket. Next
week a review of Modernism Week which
coincides with Art Palm Springs architectural
and furniture
designs featured this year.
