My series of large canvas print portraits are now hanging on the walls of the Douglass Theatre in downtown Macon for the photo exhibit Lynne Barta and I have this month. The opening reception is Friday, May 7th, from 6-9pm and is free and open to the public. At the reception artist Woodrow Gray will also be exhibiting his incredible wire sculptures.

The photographs will be on display throughout the month of May and can be seen any weekday from 10am-5pm. Gray’s sculptures will only be on display the night of the opening reception.

Here is some info about the artists exhibiting from the press release:

Lynne Barta’s variety of styles and subjects has won her several awards. Locally, her work has been seen on the cover of the Telegraph’s Out & About, and her work has been selected on four different occasions for the prestigious Macon Magazine. She was also the guest speaker for the last year on 13WMAZ’s photo tip segment.

A photography judge once stated, “Lynne’s photographs are a joy to look upon.”

Woodrow Gray’s wire sculptures are a true work of art. He started working with pipe cleaners as a child, then progressed to wire coat hangers, and then he discovered wire fencing that was being used on his grandparent’s property, and has been using that ever since. His work is one of a kind and awe inspiring. Macon has never seen the likes of work such as Woodrow Gray’s.

It is a real honor to have work such as his on display at the Douglass. This is a must see exhibit.
