First Friday Art Walk is this Friday!
January 4 th, 2008
5PM to 8PM
Throughout Burlington
Nietzsche said, “Without cruelty there is no festival.” The cruelty of January’s First Friday Art Walk, I suppose, is having to, possibly, wade through winter’s slush and spit as we make our way from gallery to gallery. I propose to you, such cruelty is worth it for the festival shines as bright as Beth Pearson vivid paintings at Amy E. Tarrant Gallery; Dostie’s Winter at the Art’s Alive Gallery, or Cristine Cambrea’s new mixed media work at Cambrea Stone Gallery.

Inspired by Stephen Gammell, Edgar Allan Poe and Tim Burton, Angela Burro's artwork portrays the balance of good and evil and the presence of beauty in darkness. The abnormal mind has always intrigued Burro, who has a B.A. in Psychology. The colorful, yet dark acrylic paintings stem from her love of horror movies and the extremes of human emotion.

Gregory Albright Opening at Skinny Pancake
New work by Gregory Albright explores landscape as a voice of nature's expression, a force with its own destiny, and a vitality perhaps even at odds with humankind. Paintings in this exhibit explore nature as personified in all of its wonderful expressions, both real and imagined. Creative projects gestate in Albright's White River Junction studio at the historic Woolen Mill.
9PM, Skinny Pancake, 60 Lake Street, (802) 540-0188, www.skinnypancake.com
