SUMMARY:"Direct/Indirect" by William Talenti
DESCRIPTION:“At the heart of all beauty lies something inhuman\, and these hills\, the softness of the sky\, the outline of these trees at this very minute lose the illusory meaning with which we had clothed them.”\n-Albert Camus\nThese six paintings (in the exhibit) concern pigment application and idea combination. I began each piece with a deliberate modality—Realistic\, Abstract\, or Non-Objective—pairing each with a “sister” painting on an opposing wall to serve as a formal counterpoint. Eventually\, the rules dissolved\, and I stopped following the recipe. An overlapping of my emotional state and the evolving surface of the paint occurred\, allowing the content to find its own voice beyond the initial structure. \nDirect/Indirect represents a deliberate unlearning of over thirty years of visual literacy. As both an educator and a painter\, I am fascinated by how a personal artistic voice is constructed\, refined\, and—eventually—dismantled. By isolating the core elements of color\, shape\, value\, and pattern\, I converge figurative representation with the intuitive faculty of abstraction. These works seek the tension between what we see and how we think\, emptying the familiar to discover what remains. \n-William Talenti \nClick here to view Gallery Hours.

SUMMARY:Rehearsal: Carrollwood Community Chorus
DESCRIPTION:The Carrollwood Community Chorus is open to anyone\, regardless of experience\, as long as you have a song in your heart. From the campfire to the Red Carpet\, members from all walks of life come together to share their gift and love of song. The chorus performs regularly at the Center\, local events and has even been known to “pop up” in crowds around the holidays. The group meets weekly to rehearse; however\, this group of friendly folks are known to keep in touch outside of rehearsals\, too! Now that’s something to sing about! \nCommunity Chorus

SUMMARY:Tampa Metropolitan Improv
DESCRIPTION:Get ready for plenty of laughs and maybe even a few tears—hopefully from laughing so hard! The team from Tampa Metropolitan Improv (TMI) will use your ideas to create hilarious\, unforgettable moments that will have your abs aching from belly-laughing fun.\nCome for a riotously good time\, and perhaps even play along with us\, as we perform short-form improv games using suggestions from you\, the audience (think along the lines of Whose Line is it Anyway\, or Dropout TV’s Make Some Noise). No two TMI shows are alike\, but rest assured\, we bring a saucy\, edgy\, extremely cool\, and hip PG-13 rating to the function that most family members can enjoy! \n\nAdmission: Free for members / $5 general admission \n\nThis is a ticketed event. Some processing fees may apply\, even for free tickets. Visit the Box Office or call (813) 922-8167 to avoid processing fees.
