Sumner & Dene is proud to announce our August show "Stories" by Lori Gordon, August 7-29 with the opening reception Friday, Aug 7, 5-9pm. Lori was originally a landscape painter on the Gulf Coast when Katrina destroyed her home and studio. Since then Lori has created recycled art from the rubbles of Hurricane Katrina. Then Hurricane Gustavo hit flooding the trailer she was living in while rebuilding her home. Never one to complain, Lori says the hurricanes have given her a new way to see art. On her "Stories" exhibition, Gordon says "Art communicates stories in a fashion much different from the spoken or written word. In this series, I have used art to explore and embrace the story. I am particularly drawn to the expression of the spiritual in our experience, and the manifestation of religious stories in our lives." Sumner & Dene, located in Downtown Albuquerque at 517 Central NW, is open weekdays 10-6, Saturdays 10-5. For more information go to www.sumnerdene.com or call 505-842-1400.
