Berry/ Britto Event

 

Off The Wall Gallery's motivation for the Berry/ Britto event was not only to  raise funds and awareness but to  raise The Berry Children's spirits. Art promotes healing and so we attempted to have  two childrens  workshops  with world renowned artist,  Romero Britto. He connected with the children as an artist, teacher, and humanitarian. The children mimicked his work using Britto coloring books , crayons and color markers.  There was sheer delight in the gallery as the  kids  gave it their all and the parents proudly looked on. Everyone went home with their own creations as well as a juice box and a cookie. With all that being said thanks to the parents and children who made it out to the event.

The artist reception that evening for Romero Britto was a huge success. Lots of new faces as well as some old ones. Special thanks for those who have been coming to our events for years, we appreciate you all so much. We were overwhelmed with the amount of people wanting to be a part of the event, there was standing room only as clients tried to pay for their coveted artworks and waited patiently for Romero to dedicate the artwork.  Brasserie 19 was a very  gracious sponsor who made the wait so much more pleasant by feeding the crowds.  We  were fortunate enough to be selling  everything  from original artwork and limited editions to books, and gift items. The Mezuzah's and  scarves were sold out before the evening was over.The gallery is working on filling all back orders and personalizations this week. Thank you for supporting us and The Berry Children from the bottom of our hearts <3.

MACKENZIE THORPE (NEW RELEASE)

 

 

 

Mackenzie Thorpe's THE BEE BOY, the love from a little boy, whether they are still seven years old or eighty, that is the magic in every girls step. There is a purity and simplicity of spirit all boys learn at an early age, which is masterfully captured in this latest sculpture titled Bee Boy. Mackenzie connects with his own inner boy, the one who stands at the front door on Halloween, with the home-made costume made of parts and bits of everything else…but to him…he IS a bee. With chest puffed out with pride, feet together sturdy enough to hold the weight of a jet airliner, smile as broad as the ocean, and surprise in hand he knows will delight…he embodies all things boy.

As Mackenzie is known to do, this work is above stereotype and immediate surface appeal. "It speaks to all of us, to boys who identify with this depiction of confidence regardless of age, to girls who identify with having boys in their lives with this charm regardless of personal connection. It is pure love".


Bee Boy has an opening price of $3,3, it measures 21.5” tall, 10” wide, and 8.25” dee, it is in an edition of 195 Arabic, 8 Artist Proofs, and 8 Hors d Commerce.


We are thrilled to announce the release of the latest hand-painted cast resin sculpture by Mackenzie Thorpe titled, Bee Boy. We have made special arrangements to have a limited quantity shipped direct from the foundry to deliver in time for the holiday season. All orders will be shipped in the order received while supplies last. This is the one you don’t want to let get away!!  Orders will be accepted now and shipped in mid-November, while quantities last…it is limited
