Come see what's happening at theLaGrange Park Library! Planet Collage.com is proud to announce it second group show entitled“Post X” July 1, 2009 through July 31, 2009 - - Planet Collage.com will be exhibiting in the art gallery within the Lagrange Park Library (Illinois) located on the second floor during the month of July! This group show of members of planetcollage.com includes individual art by select members, exchanged collage postcards along with exchanged candy tins. Plantcollage.com is an international online fine art collage group whose members are from all over the globe. This show will represent select member artists who reside in the surrounding suburbs* of Chicago and as far away as Pennsylvania, Spain, California and Washington State. Along with small artworks created by planetcollage.com members, this exhibit includes a collection of postcards and tins received by curator and founder of planetcollage.com, LuEllen Joy Giera of LaGrange Park, IL. The international postcard exchange began in April 2006. A list is created month by month and each participating artist is expected to make one postcard-sized (5”x7”) collage and mail them out to each and every participant. Each artist will receive the equal number of postcards back in their mailbox each month. This group show is just a very small portion of a wonderful array of collage work including framed and unframed pieces, candy tins and postcards exchanged to and from each artist as part of the monthly international postcard exchange. This is the second group show of PlanetCollage.com. Please view planetcollage.com and click on the member’s page for more information!
