12:20:2002 Entry: "Ann : Show Update"

Show Update

Just got an email from the gallery last night...they gave it a name for me based on a series of my paintings, "Satin Riots." That's fine...they did well with writing the press release from the info I gave them. It would've been funny if they chose "Ornamental Illness," however (another series). I almost called them back on Tuesday to say "Go with 'Ornamental Illness'" but "Satin Riots" is fine.

The opening will be on Friday, July 12 from 6:30 - 8:30. There's another person having a show in another part of the gallery, or "Gallery 2." (I'm in "Gallery 1"). Stan doesn't get off until 5:30 that night and it takes a half hour to drive home, at which point he'll have to change clothes. I guess I'll be fashionably late for my own opening. He can't get off work earlier...they're just that strict at his job. Thank heavens the gallery is half a mile away and not in northeastern Wisconsin or something....I guess he'd have to call in sick for the day then, but people do that all the time there...to go play the casinos. See, if that place didn't have workers that were so infected with the Ho-Chunk flu (calling in sick to go to the Ho-Chunk casino), then people like Stan could get legitimate time off more easily. But stupid people and their ridiculous little addictions always have to ruin it for others.

"Satin Riots"

Mmh, somehow it makes me think of underwear...

Actually, "Satin Riots" is an anagram for "Striations" which sort of describe the paintings. :-)
