Art Map Burlington>>Art Doesn't Stop on Friday

April 6th , 2007 5PM to 8PM Throughout Burlington
“Breeding lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire, stirring dull roots with spring rain,” wrote T.S. Elliot about this ‘cruel’ month. There’s nothing cruel about Burlington’s art scene in April. On First Friday, the daffodils may not be blooming yet, but be sure to check out some of these blossoms: Tari Swenson’s “Zensho” brush painting at Amy E. Tarrant Gallery; the series of exhibitions at Pursuit Gallery presented under the moniker “4x4”; a group show of local artists using maps and blueprints as their mediums at the South End Arts and Business Association Gallery; and Lili Parson’s oil paintings at Kriya Studio.

Guided Tours Burlington City Arts offers walking tours led by staff and volunteers who are knowledgeable about each space and can answer questions about the exhibitions. Tours leave from the Firehouse Gallery every half hour, starting at 5:30PM and ending at 7PM. Tours last about an hour and visit exhibitions within walking distance of downtown. Post-Walk After the walk, head over to The Gallery at Burlington College for the open mic portion of Recon Soiree.	Denis Versweyveld at Pine Street Art Works Versweyveld’s refined technique, choice of simple objects, and intense application of knowledge about how light falls upon a surface makes for a remarkable selection of work. Check it out at Pine Street Art Works.

Art Theft in Burlington A piece from the New Orleans show at Red Square was stolen. They've got the theft on tape and the police are investigating. Adding injury to insult, the artist is a displaced Katrina survivor who just gave birth less than a month ago — and the baby is sick and in the hospital. The piece was already sold and the artist could really use the money right now. Got any info? Stop into Red Square and let them know!
