John Puglia

Last night Mia and I went to the John Puglia opening at Revival and Square Records over the in The Square. We got there around 8ish and there were people everywhere. Art enthusiasts had flooded the two shops and spilled onto the sidewalks. Highland Square was so alive with people and music; it was totally awesome.

Now on to the art. Revival housed a number of pieces on the walls above their goods. These appeared to done on blueprints. Definitely cool. There was some totally awesome mixed media pieces hanging in the back of Square Records. These works were digital photograph on wood. The wood was assembled in almost a pallet rack fashion with the photography affixed to it on multiple plains to create an amazing and unique finished product. My personal favorite piece of the evening was called come from the wood and photography series and is called "The Last Supper at Annabell's" which featured a man passed out with a pint of beer and surrounded by Annabell's steak dinners.

If you have a chance, get out to Revival and Square Records and check our the John's art. The show runs until June 30.
