foundation

I am establishing a 501(c)3 Natalie and Howard Goldstein Foundation, to support local arts organizations; details forthcoming in the next couple of months, as well as the announcement for a memorial 'event' which will include an art show of my dad's animals and my mom's sweaters, and opportunities for all who love us to speak your minds.

R.I.P. Dad

As many of you know, my Dad valiantly fought cancer for several years. This morning he passed away, peacefully.




Thank you for all of your support. Memorial plans to be announced soon.

Love.

Show end date: Sept 31st

Art Whino continues to invigorate the DC art world by bringing the metro area exciting exhibitions that challenge the viewer..'s ideas of contemporary art. Art Whino..'s newest exhibition, .."Block Party,.." is an exceptional new installation that will also serve as a reflection on art pricing and buying. Solo artist Daniel Fleres and 10 others participating in this exhibition are set to display hundreds of small paintings on wooden blocks. The exhibition will be a large installation of these little wood pieces varying in depth that are designed to be displayed singly, in groupings and even as collaboration pieces. Daniel directly addresses his dedicated following of young, new collectors with this installation, challenging the idea that good art has to be unattainable to be valuable. The exhibition was designed around around the idea that art should be accessible to people of all ages and income levels, and therefore all works in the show will be priced at the same affordable price. As an installation, the exhibition is designed to let you, the buyer, participate in the artistic process as a composer of the forms.
