Tonight: METAPHYSICS, MYSTICISM AND MUD: AMERICAN STORIES FROM THE DEEP SOUTH

It's hot. What better way to cool down than with a thick meaty slice of watermelon and good art.

Tonight The Lowe Gallery in Santa Monica Presents the Opening reception for METAPHYSICS, MYSTICISM AND MUD: AMERICAN STORIES FROM THE DEEP SOUTH: AN EXHIBITION FEATURING ARTISTS ANDREW SAFTEL & KE FRANCES.

(KE FRANCIS DEBRIS: HOUSE AND TRAILER (15/20), 1989 LINOCUT 18 x 15 inches)

In addition to the amazing artwork, the American-South themed reception will feature daisy-duke clad dancers, soulful hip-hop, and Southern cuisine as well as fresh watermelon and bushels from the latest crops…all served with a mess of southern hospitality.
