I attended the opening of the Bellwether Art Walk, a group sculpture show in Bellevue that includes one of my pieces. The indoor sculpture is at Bellevue City Hall, a beautiful building with an amazing terrazo floor. The outdoor installations are at the Downtown Park.
I hadn’t realized that the show was not only national, but international, with 37 artists from places as diverse as New York, Maine, Korea, Australia and Japan. There is also a good showing of local sculptors including Steve Jensen, Michael Johnson, and Julia Haack. The City of Bellevue did a beautiful job displaying and installing the work and printing a nice catalog and walking map. I was thrilled when I got an email showing the printed materials and found my piece was one of three featured along with Jae Hyo Lee and Christopher Pfeifle.
I didn’t get a chance to go to the park to see the installations there but am planning on doing so soon. The exhibit runs through October 17th and is well worth a trip to Bellevue.
