Heard from my friend Eric Olsen. His daughter is opening a new gallery tomorrow at La Placé in Beachwood. My neighbor Jerry Schmidt is one of the artists. Here’s the presser:
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Fresh Art at The O- A new Gallery Opens in Beachwood
Beachwood, Ohio- 02/01/10
Cleveland artists Kristen Olsen and Jenna Fournier bring a new and edgy art gallery into LaPlace, The O. The gallery will display the owners’ surreal and bold pieces as well as metal work by Hy Snell and Jerry Schmidt. Hy has been creating intricate lyrical metal pieces for roughly seventy years, and has shown extensively across the country. Jerry is the son of well-known Cleveland sculptor, Fred Schmidt, and is a very accomplished metal sculptor in his own right. The gallery also boasts unique jewelry and candles, which are all locally made.
The grand opening is set for February 6th from 6 p.m. until 9p.m. There will be a live artist’s reception as well as live music, hors doeurves, and beverages.
Kristen is a graduate of fine arts and art history from the University of Cincinnati, and has been showing in and working within galleries for several years. She currently has work showing in Rome, Italy. Jenna is a beautifully self taught artist, and her work shows maturity beyond her years. She has shown work extensively from Las Vegas to Cleveland. Jenna has worked in and apprenticed under well-known figures in the art business. With this gallery, these ladies want to create an inviting atmosphere not just for buyers, but for all curious and interested in art. They plan to have regular live music at the gallery as well as be painting and creating while the doors are open.
