The Mad Hatter Tea Party, a group show, runs from September 14 to November 4, 2013 at Out Of Line Art Gallery (2812 W Chicago Ave., Chicago). There will be a opening reception September 14, 6 to 9 p.m. There will also be a collectors night September 16 by appointment (call 847-224-9344).
Artist include: JoJo Baby, Hans Ulrich and Marianna Buchwald, Scott Becker, Lynn Chalupka, Andrew De Larosa, Jeff Hughart, Peter Jones, Rainbow Kitty and Ayala Leyser.
The term that stands out when the folks at Out Of Line write on this exhibit is "wacky." There also must be an honorable mention for "whimsical." The group exhibit features both soft and hard sculptures, 3D photos, prints and paintings. All of these, as you might imagine, are inspired by Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland or fairy tales. Some of the stories are revised, some remain true the original tales in these pieces.
For the opening the gallery recommends costumes and masks. There will be a brief talk by Professor John Long on Lewis Carroll. The Red Queen will be on hand with surprises too.
