Art Mora NJ: Grand Opening Exhibition: Art Blossom
Gallerist Sunny Shin, director of Art Mora at 547 W. 27th St. in Chelsea NYC, has opened a second gallery, Art Mora NJ, at 222 Main St. in Ridgefield Park, NJ. The Grand Opening Exhibition, Art Blossom, will run April 18 – May 14, 2016. The opening reception was held last Saturday, April 30th, from 5-7 p.m. Artists included are: Seongmin Ahn, Orlando Bofill, Philippe Halaburda, Daru-Junghyang Kim, Heesook Kim, Eunkyung Lee, Renee Magnanti, Bill Pangburn, Unhee Park, Cecelia Whittaker-Doe, and me, Debi Pendell. The Dexter Mason Jazz Band played wonderfully.
I was especially pleased to meet several artists who I didn’t know and have the opportunity to talk with them about their work. Guests engaged me in conversation about my work, asking excellent questions and providing interesting insights. There was a big turnout – more than what you see in these photos, which were taken early in the evening. Once things got swinging, both Carl and I were too busy to remember to keep photographing.
An artist residency program is just starting up at Art Mora NJ and there are a few photos of the studio space, intended to be shared by two artists. Also, much to my surprise, there is a flower shop!! And more exhibition space in the flower shop.
An exciting evening. My thanks to the amazing Sunny Shin.
Looks like a wonderful place. Congratulations.
