whups! my art show needs a name!

[solarbird]

What should I call my art show? I need to tell them by the end of the day. I didn't know it needed a separate name. OOPS.

Just popped in to my head

This is your glass art right?

"Breaking Out"

yep, glass art

[solarbird]

The best thought I've had so far is "Broken Light" so I think that word is in there somewhere.

Breaking Out does work on a few levels, which is good (and it's kind of neat that you got that kind of impression from it) but also sounds kind of like I'm reviewing myself positively (a breakout artist / a breakout show) which I suspect would invite DOOOOOM.

I am not sure that sounding pretentious is a dangerous thing in the art show world.

Re: yep, glass art

[solarbird]

It's a fine, fine line. Very dangerous. You go first.

If I went in to art show world I would be so over the top, I would be silly

Re: yep, glass art

[solarbird]

It's a valid approach. I mean, c.f. Salvador Dali, who made a career out of going as far over the top as possible. (In addition to having actual talent, I mean.) I don't have the theatre sense to do that, though. Or the massive extroversion.

CUTTING EDGE

I am so very unoriginal.

[risu.livejournal.com]

I stand by "Ooh, Shiny"

[solarbird]

I think the problem with this is that Art Galleries are Terribly, Terribly Serious most of the time.

[gazerwolf.livejournal.com]

What do you call the best piece you are going to have in the show?

[solarbird]

Define best. Possibly Gods at War, possibly Queensbane, possibly Building in Europe, possibly (assuming I get it done, which I will) Remembering Someone Else's Grandmother. I'm not sure any of those make good titles, though.

[gazerwolf.livejournal.com]

It was a thought.

Next best thought is "Reflections in Art"

[banner.livejournal.com]

A Minstrel's Trials

[smeehrrr.livejournal.com]

Larry.

[solarbird]

DAMMIT.

I had Ferd Burfel in the pool.

[smeehrrr.livejournal.com]

How was he? Did you take pictures?

[solarbird]

Gamey. Here's a snapshot.

[mamishka.livejournal.com]

How about ....

"Mind that glass. What glass? OW!"

or

"Sharp Edges"

or

"Danger Art Working"

[gerimaple.livejournal.com]

i like Mimi's suggestion of "Sharp Edges"

[pobig.livejournal.com]

The warping process suggests "Patter State".

[solarbird]

...I don't get it.

On titular ... (Ha! I said 'tit!')

[lickingtoad.livejournal.com]

When we put together a show in college for a class, they picked my suggestion for a name.

'The Title Goes Here.'

Being full of titular authority, I think you should call it ...

'Fused and Magnified.'

Of course, after thinking on this title for a full twenty minutes, it occurs to me that your day has passed and I'm a latecomer and a fool. Ah, well.

[brombear.livejournal.com]

Even though it's too late, howzabout stealing a name like "Shards", "Recycled Memories", or "Kaleidescope of Time"?

Ok...how about "Bob"?

To offer, just because:

[toreypet.livejournal.com]

Delectable Delicates?
Fragmented?
Fragment - fragile...
Fragmentile?
Fragile Fragments
Perhaps:
Coloring in Translucents
Translucent Colorisms?

Okay, I'll hush now. :>

[gerimaple.livejournal.com]

and so? what did you pick?

[solarbird]

Broken Light, I'm afraid.

[gerimaple.livejournal.com]

well, that was your original plan so it's perfectly reasonable :) is this at the same place you checked out last month?

[solarbird]

yep! same one. i'll post about it today sometime.
