SUMMARY:League of Reston Artists: artRESTON Painters Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:“TELL ME SOMETHING WITH FLOWERS” \n“Tell Me Something with Flowers\,” conceived and curated by Antonella Manganelli for the League of Reston Artists\, is a call for artists to speak softly\, powerfully and symbolically through floral language. Throughout history\, flowers have whispered what words could not: messages of love\, remembrance\, compassion\, protest and peace. Their symbolic language has transcended borders and cultures\, offering a delicate but potent voice to emotion and intention. In times when the brutality used in language and actions dominate\, “Tell Me Something with Flowers” invites artists to return to grace and seeks works that harness floral imagery as a medium of dialogue\, expressing resilience\, resistance and hope. \n“Following its warmly received debut at Alley in Washington\, D.C.\, featuring the talented artists of Art4US\, ‘Tell Me Something with Flowers’ now enters its second stage of exhibition\,” Antonella said. “This evolving showcase continues to celebrate the symbolic language of flowers as vessels of emotion\, storytelling and peace. We’re proud to feature 30 artists from Maryland\, D.C. and Virginia\, each contributing a unique voice to this symbolic and poetic exhibition.” \nDebra Wright\, the judge for the exhibit\, is an artist and curator based in Northern Virginia. Her work as a found object\, installation and avant-garde artist explores themes of social justice\, human rights and personal identity. Wright’s art has been exhibited internationally in traditional venues\, as well as in public art installations throughout the Washington metropolitan area. \nJoin us on Sunday\, October 19 at 2:00 p.m. for a vibrant afternoon celebrating “Tell Me Something with Flowers.” The event will include remarks from Debra Wright\, the awards judge\, artist talks and a poetry reading by Mike Maggio. Light refreshments will be served. \nReception: October 19\, 2:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
