Weekend Shows

Friday night Joe and I attended a fashion show by the Northwest Film Forum, Blackbird, Rue, La Rousse and Lambs Ear at Pravda Studio—which is a great venue for parties by the way. It was kind of amazing to see an actual catwalk, with actual models walking up and down the runway, and people applauding at the exceptional attire the models were wearing, in Seattle! The location, the people, the clothes, the music, all made me feel like I was in another city.

Please forgive the crappy iPhone pics, but I didn't have my camera (which I now regret)!




Saturday I went to an art opening at the Wonderful Union Gallery featuring art by Don and Ryan Clark of Invisible Creature. They created a collection of fantastic Mid-Century Modern inspired illustrated prints juxtaposed with the realities of domestic life. Definitely drop by the gallery to see some really great work.

I'm really glad to see events of this sort of scale and focus happening in Seattle. The aforementioned boutiques and Demetre and Greg are doing something really great for the local fashion and art/design community respectively.

Geoff McFetridge at OSP

This weekend, we plan on attending the opening of an art installation by one of my favorite graphic designers/artist, Geoff McFetridge, at the Olympic Sculpture Park. His work is playful and whimsical, attributes I hope to incorporate more of in my own work.

For more of McFetridge's work, check out Solitary Arts, The Directors Bureau and this Western State Documentary by Coudal Partners.
