Outdoor Lounge Proposal Art @ Current Gallery

Hot babes outside the gallery, Elena Johnston, Jordan Bernier and John Bohl

Current Gallery's new show, the satellite Outdoor Lounge exhibition (set to open on July 17th), features the actualized pieces by artists whose creative proposals shone above the rest. While these sculptures and installations have been work-intensive ventures, the original proposals were so thoughtfully and beautifully compiled that Michael Benevento chose to present them in their own exhibition.

Alternative ideas for Jordan Bernier's Pants Ramp

The show offers some insight into the artists ' interpretations of the theme, variations in their ideas and end results and better understanding of their individual styles.
