[NEohioPAL] Matt Dibble Art Opening Friday

[Matt Cook]

Please join us on Friday, January 11th 5:00 - 9:00pm for the opening
reception for Matt Dibble's show, "The Cavalcade Continues".  An exhibition
of recent paintings by Matt Dibble will be on display from Jan. 11th - Feb
23rd. This show was curated by Jeffry Chiplis, a nationally recognized
sculptor who invented and continues to explore sculptures made from recycled
neon.

In Greek mythology, the Chimera is a monstrous creature made of the parts of
multiple animals. The human chimeras found in the paintings are often
pictured in architectonic environments, a calm and smooth contrast to the
misshapen and contorted figures.

Chiplis explained, "The specters that populate this collection are products
of the artist's imagination, but also physically human in respects so that
we can recognize them. They are shocking to our typical sensibilities, and
keep the viewer spellbound within their peculiar nature." Based on a series
of pen-and-ink drawings first exhibited two years ago, this collection "also
hints at the darker side of being human" according to Chiplis.
