Always presenting exhibits both timely and engaging, Altered Esthetics is now turning its watchful eye to society's insatiable obsession with violence and the macabre. From the surreal to the scary, Altered Esthetics Art of Horror show exhibits a frighteningly wonderful arrangement of sculpture, paintings, poetry, and film.
65 artists come together to give their perspectives on horror using a variety of mediums - from wax doll heads to steel, from oil paints to acrylics, from water colors to rats, from resin castings to pigments mixed with human blood and ashes. The Art of Horror group show communicates the collective nightmare vision of these artists with over 100 works of art.
The Art of Horror exhibition runs from October 13 to November 10th, 2006.
Please join us for the opening Artists' reception on Friday the 13th at 6:00pm.
Costumes welcome!
