ever after

OFF Space is pleased to announce the opening of its new exhibit:

Ever After
Sunday September 18 at the Chapel of The Chimes in Oakland.

Please join us to experience the first exhibition of visual art in the Julia Morgan designed chapel and columbarium, Voted Best of the Bay’s, "Best Place to Spend Eternity".

Most stories end with happily ever after --but the stories being told by artists in this show are using Ever After as a starting point.
 Poignancy, playfulness, and sharp insights into the nature of the eternal are the common threads used to weave a series of site specific mini-installations through chapel niches. From the minimal to the Baroque, artists use these unique spaces to reflect upon notions of ritual, remembrance, loss and celebration with critical alacrity and humor.


Ever After features 15 installations by artists:
Glenna Cole Allee, Rachel Dawson, Victoria Heilweil, Elyse Hochstadt, Karrie Hovey, Phil King, Marya Krogstad, Yuki Maruyama, Emmanuelle Namont Kouznetsov, Jessica Pezalla, Maggie Simpson Adams, Luther Thie, Linda Trunzo, Andrew Witrak, Kathrine Worel.

Ever After
