Making Arrangements art exhibit explores the many moods of floral design at Goodyear Arts - CLTure
Saturday, January 18, 2020Goodyear Arts. The show will feature works from regional artists as well as artists from Philadelphia, Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, and Richmond. Curator Rebecca Henderson said of the show and its title, “I wanted to be able to communicate the duality of the work [the show] contains. Yes, there is a bouquet: the colorful beauty, a tantalizing expression and a bold optimism. But there are also those arrangements whose wilting marks the fragility and banality of living– that the days simply pass.” Henderson has made a name for herself in a variety of ways around Charlotte. She co-curated the 2016 show Unibrow with local sculpture artist Grace Stott, continues to co-curate a mobile and accessibility-driven gallery, Wheeling Art Dealing, and just last year started Southern Ladies Arm Wrestling (an inclusive arm wrestling league open to all femme-identifying folks). Henderson is active in the arts community and handpicked each artist based off the content, concept, or context of their work as it pertains to the Making Arrangements curatorial proposal. Art by Corey Pemberton“This is a group exhibition which reflects on the exquisite task of balancing living alongside the tender clutter of having lived. Beyond unifying floral imagery, themes of joyful resistance, common nostalgia and conflicted sentimentality also run through the work,” Henderson said. “This show was my opportunity to experiment with how to approach curatorial work as a kind of temporal bouquet. Many methods of floral design exist in this beautiful space between language and mathematics, and as a curator, I wanted to challenge myself to work within this same balancing framework.”Making Arrangements opens at Goodyear Arts on Friday, January 10 from 6 p.m. – 9 p.m. and features work from Amy Bagwell, Corey Pemberton, Dennissa Young, Garrett Alan Fees, Grac... https://clture.org/making-arrangement-art-exhibit/

Ask Jerry: Order flowers, gifts from a local purveyor - Seacoastonline.com
Sunday, February 09, 2020The quality was not great. I dont want that to happen again.Can you advise me in time for Valentines Day?Marc E., Grand Rapids, Mich.Yes. Order your flowers from a local florist. By local, I mean a florist in the town or city where the flowers are being delivered.If you know someone in that area, ask for a florist recommendation. Otherwise, search the Internet for local florist names and read the reviews. Since reviews are not always authentic, you can also check online for public libraries in your flower recipients neighborhood. Then, call the librarian for florists listed in that area. And ask the librarian off the record whether he or she has any personal florist suggestions. It is off the record because librarians normally give information they can document with a published source. It is not within their routine purview to give personal opinions. That need not stop you from asking off the record.Once you identify a promising local florist, call and speak with the owner, the manager, or a conscientious-sounding employee. Request the name of that individual and address the person by name. Be specific about what you want to purchase, the importance of freshness, how the card should read, the delivery time, and any other relevant particulars. Make it clear you are a potentially future customer.When ordering flowers or anything perishable (i.e., candy, fruit, etc.), it is best to communicate with that personal touch. A gift recipient is often reluctant to inform you when your gift arrived in less-than-perfect condition. Accordingly, you want to feel confident. You want it handled properly. Though this process ... https://www.seacoastonline.com/news/20200209/ask-jerry-order-flowers-gifts-from-local-purveyor
