Ada Gallery brings you “Charm School”

by | Aug 23, 2010 | ART

Even if you don’t consider yourself learned in the arts, you can still spot something utterly bizarre and question its validity. What is art? What is the artist telling me? Does that blue really go with the splash of red? What’s up with the spaghetti? Questions to be asked and answered at a challenging upcoming exhibit from ADA Gallery titled “Charm School”.

The work shown is by Alison Brady, a New York based artist from Cleveland, Ohio. She hold an MFA in Photography, Video and Related Media from the School of Visual Arts (NYC).

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is.
