Hey There!
How exciting to take in a Saturday night opening of none other than our dearest artistic luminary pal, Amanda Dolan (see photo below). The temptress of an artist, who last showed in March of this year, gathered a select crowd for a viewing of Precious Things. Warde Nasse Gallery hosted Ms. Dolan's distinctly smaller group of works, yet again.
The mixed-media pieces of work ranged in sizes and price, all very brightly lit in shades of pinks and blues, featuring hearts, flowers, rainbows, ice cream cones, and even Amanda’s beloved French Bulldog, “Pearl.” The exhibit also introduced Amanda’s first foray into sculpture work, a mannequin up-ended and covered in mixed-media, being used as what Amanda has dubbed a “post-modern flower pot.” Perfectly matching her works of art, Amanda was clad in Betsey Johnson from head to toe, including a vintage Betsey dress, black Betsey leggings with bright pink roses, and leopard print Betsey stilettos.
Ms. Dolan's works were supported by the media industry's finest along with several
staffers from Betsey Johnson downtown and uptown, and Amanda's Dolan's rocker boyfriend, Jon Weber (of Rock of Ages and the Orion Experience). The show served as a follow up to "She's A Lady", "Call Me Crazy", and "Heart Attack", and was noticeably happier in theme; we loved the hodge podge of all of her most precious things.
