The Naked Truth

An exhibit at the Clay Glass Metal Stone Gallery in Downtown Lake Worth, encompasses artists from all over Palm Beach County. The title is the starting point. The subject matter is entirely left up to the artists. The exhibit begins Friday evening, September 9 at 6PM, with a wine and cheese reception.

For centuries, the nude body was a form of celebration for the artist and his/her patrons. What shapes in nature lend more to the angles and curves of composition, than the nude. But, wait! Many galleries no longer allow artists to present works with nudes in them. Not the folks at Clay Glass Metal Stone Gallery. "Art is Art, and we present Art," commented the gallery's curators, when asked. "We are also not sure that the works on display will be nude," one said. "After all, what does the term, The Naked Truth, mean?" We are about to see. Will there be a clever interpretation? Will visual puns appear? We are all waiting in eager anticipation. In the meantime, artists are busy at work preparing for the show.

Appearing on the wine and cheese table will be edible bread sculptures that fit tastily and tastefully fit into the theme. Created by local artists, they will stand by, waiting to see which parts will be eaten first. Visitors to the gallery will be given a total sensory experience with visual arts; light, color, form, sound and taste.

Clay Glass Metal Stone Gallery is rapidly becoming a place to meet and interact with artists, spend time enjoying extraordinary and unusual artist renditions of themes, and relax with friends as they view the newest artist works.

This exhibit, The Naked Truth, will fool you. It is not what you think it will be. Drop in for an all-encompassing arts experience. Give the artists from all over the county a chance to really entertain you.
