| Some Upcoming Events... |
- Alicia Sterling Beach, Meditations - Includes four series of drawings and works on paper produced 2003-2006, ranging from a controlled academic methodology to a more gestural, free flowing approach in her watercolor abstractions. Sinead Finnerty-Pyne, curator.
- Good Dolls, Bad Dolls - This exhibition surveys work by modern and contemporary artists who use dolls substitute selves or aesthetic alter egos. Refining everyday experience, these artists create alternative, more ideal worlds filled with beings of their own making. Playing with dolls can be an experience of release. The creation of fictive worlds fleshes out the artist's private fantasies and unrealized pyschological needs. Going beyond the usual notion of dolls as simply representations of Freud's "uncanny," this exhibition looks at handmade creatures as liberators of fantasy and the artistic imagination.
- Interactions: Armory Artists & Their Art - This exhibition includes the work of artists who are participating in the Armory's Fellowship program. They spend nine months learning how to teach art to children and youth. The Fellow talk to visiting school classes about their own art and personal process. Students then interact with the artist in a unique hands-on art workshop based on the work in the exhibition.

Chinese Face Reading at Cote d'Azur
|
5/8/2008 to 5/8/2008
|
|
Cote d'Azur is hosting a special guest, Charles Yarborough. Charles will teach a free class about Chinese Face Reading.
Face Reading is an authentic tradition that has been used by the Chinese for thousands of years. It was employed in the imperial court, in the battlefield, and it continues to be used in matchmaking and in the business world.
Consisting of traditional "Five Element Theory" and time-honored observational techniques, Chinese Face Reading can provide you with an instant assessment of a person's character, their point of view and their method of processing information.
Working from translated Chinese texts, Charles shows students how to apply face reading fundamentals in their own lives, bringing harmony to their relationships and helping to create healthy new ones. Students will practice their skills in class. Distributed materials include pictures of pop stars, politicians and perpetrators.
