Invitation to a gallery opening, November 7

Sunday, November 7 · 3:00pm - 6:00pm

The Gallery Upstairs
Herenstraat 18B
Rijswijk, Netherlands
As you can see, I've been busy working on this gigantic painting, and getting ready for an opening in November.  Please come, and share this invite with your friends!  If you are in the states, hopefully someday the show will swing through your hometown.  For my Dutch friends, I hope to see you there.
The name of the Exhibit is "Exploring Beauty." Women from Europe and America share stories of self-love and body image in a photo and painting exhibition, beginning 7 November, at The Gallery Upstairs in Rijswijk. The exhibition will be opened by the Mayor of Rijswijk, Burgemeester Ineke van der Wel at 3:00, and there will be live music (soprano Liat Alkan Heymann and her colleague Silvia da Silva will sing a capella). The exhibit is a part of the national Kunstweek, 6-16 November 2010.  There will be selections from the Antwerp show as well as new images. You'll also see some familiar faces who volunteered for the project.

The exhibit runs from November 6 through 25, and is open Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays from 1:00 to 5:00, and on Saturdays from noon until 4:00. For further information, please visit www.exploringbeauty.org. Also feel free to pass along this invite. See you there, Erik
