RSVP: [email protected] tel_ 702.599.9621 These sketches are a limited edition portfolio of twenty-six 11” x 17” prints (silk screened on Coventry Vellum paper with oil based ink) signed by the artist. The set is produced as an edition of 50 in collaboration with The Fabric Workshop and Museum. "Here is a series in no particular order of sketches of mine on favorite historical buildings which have inspired me, plus some buildings we have designed - and then a Heinz Ketchup bottle as an American cultural icon - here is acknowledged the Mannerist range of our cultural interests as relevant: Viva Michelangelo and Heinz Ketchup! I think all of them have one thing in common - they are Mannerist. Viva diversity - extraordinary and ordinary and monumental and vernacular!" - Robert Venturi To celebrate this event, Tuesday 25th at 6:30pm Jim Venturi will come to present the collection and talk about the soon to come documentary "Learning form Bob & Denis". The screening of "Saving Lieb House" and a reception will follow. www.venturiportfolio.com
