Big Something - Widespread Panic Afterparty

Saturday, July 26th

Show: 11:45pm | Doors: 11pm

The Orange Peel

Ages 18+

The Penland Gallery presents Family Dinner, an exhibition of wood sculpture by artist Vivian Chiu, through August 30. A reception will be held on Friday, July 18 from 4:30 to 6:30 PM with an artist talk at 4:30 PM.

The pieces in the exhibition are vessel forms made from pine crate wood. The artist received a gift of wooden shipping crates from Wing On Wo and Co, the oldest continuously operated storefront in Manhattan’s Chinatown. She dismantled them, cut them into hundreds of carefully calculated pieces, and then reassembled them into vessel forms that echo the porcelain wares that were shipped in the crates. Some of the pieces incorporate marquetry to create narrative imagery evoking stories of Chiu’s childhood in Hong Kong.

The work is beautiful and evocative, the technical complexity and execution are remarkable, and it all adds up to a breathtaking exhibition.

Set in the 1590s, brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star, “The Bard.” When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing, and acting simultaneously, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of the opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to “thine own self” and all that jazz.
