Monumental Micros at Muse Gallery
More than forty members of Philadelphia Sculptors and Sculptors, Inc. of Baltimore and have scaled down their sights and have produced artwork that fits within the size of a box of safety matches, nothing larger than 2" x 3" x 5". Materials range from carved marble to acrylic paint, and most possibilities in between.
David Meyer, (a member of both groups) creates precise geometric arrangements of dandelion seeds, complete with their parachutes, from a single flower. John Costanza’s laugh-out-loud scenarios have actual matchboxes providing the settings for his attention grabbing dramas. Not to be missed is "I told you my feet were killing me", showing the interior of a funeral parlor, complete with open casket. Ceramic, hand-made paper, and carved wood comprise many of the other works, along with a half-used tube of acrylic paint wearing a yellow sweater appearing to be knit by a Lilliputian granny.
Muse Gallery is located at 60 N. 2nd St. in Philadelphia. The gallery is open Wednesday through Sunday from 5:00 – 8:00pm. For more information about Muse Gallery, call 215-627-5310.
