One manB次元官网网址檚 trash is anotherB次元官网网址檚 treasure and that has never been more true than at Art from the Attic.
Unwanted art dropped off at the Coast Collective by collectors looking for new homes for B次元官网网址済ently experienced treasures,B次元官网网址� will be on display at the scenic lagoon-side gallery in Colwood. Collective manager Sharlene Stushnov-Lee said the work is truly one of a kind.
B次元官网网址淚t is a very eclectic collection of work, we didnB次元官网网址檛 know what we were going to get,B次元官网网址� Stushnov-Lee said. B次元官网网址淚t is interesting to see what other people collect and what they have in their homes.B次元官网网址�
It is the first time the gallery has hosted such an event and with the quality of art received during the call, she hopes to make it an annual treasure hunt collectors can look forward to every year.
B次元官网网址淚t is work they have had at their homes they loved at one time but doesnB次元官网网址檛 fit in with their lifestyle anymore so they are moving it out and we are happy to facilitate that,B次元官网网址� she said. B次元官网网址淲hen you come in you will see something that will have you coming back again.B次元官网网址�
Until Feb. 5, collectors can take in everything from a Durer litho print made in the 1500s, to European porcelain dolls, a Russian spinning wheel, vintage photographs, collages and a hand-painted hurricane vase.
B次元官网网址淚 was pleasantly surprised. I didnB次元官网网址檛 think (we would get) some of the high-calibre work that came in,B次元官网网址� said gallery director Deborah Czernecky. B次元官网网址淭here is a lot of good artwork people donB次元官网网址檛 know what to do with. It is a win-win situation.B次元官网网址�
Joining the show on Feb. 4 and 5 is an art garage sale with secondhand and used art supplies, such as oil paints, frames, canvasses and tools.
B次元官网网址淏eing in the art world I have learned that someone else might like it even if I think it is horrific,B次元官网网址� Czernecky said laughing. B次元官网网址淏eauty is in the eye of the beholder.B次元官网网址�
