Straw Into Gold

Dates: January 22, 2010 through February 14, 2010

Time: Gallery Hours, Tue - Sat 10a - 6p and Sun 12 - 5p

Location: 211 East 1st Street, Sanford, FL

Description: Alabama folk artist Butch Anthony will make a return to Central Florida at Jeanine Taylor Art Gallery for the show "Straw Into Gold." Butch has coined the phrase "intertwangled" to describe his sculptural works made from found objects and salvaged treasures. "Butch has a knack for turning one man's trash into another's treasure. Don't let his homespun demeanor fool you. He's part mad scientist, part genius," says Taylor. The centerpiece for this show will be a large scale school of fish installed in the middle of the spacious Sanford gallery. Each freestanding fish is assembled carefully from Anthony's collection of found objects. Taylor has also requested Butch to include a selection of the circus side show banners that he creates. These oversized canvases feature freaks and oddities of nature that will be a humorous addition to the show. Butch will be present for the opening reception from 6 - 9pm on January 22.
