Dress for a wedding for this installation

On Saturday, September 5, it will look like Brides Gone Wild at the Windisch-Hunt Gallery (2911 Grand Avenue), when The Wedding Dress premiers.

Dozens of brides will be all decked out in wedding gowns, there will even be a justice of the peace on hand if anyone wants to really get married.

The fun starts at 7 pm. Artists presenting sculptural renditions of "The Wedding Dress" are Maruchi Carmona, Elcira Moralesand Jane Tinney. To be even more kitschy, a wedding cake from Wal-mart will be part of the festivities. Raymond Neuberts' art installation "The Wedding Dress" will be bringing some friends from Palm Beach (drag queen friends in wedding dresses). One of the "brides" is shown here.

"Raylight, alias Ray Neubert hits a high note with this idea. I can't wait to go to the gallery opening on Saturday. I am very happy to vamp the night away with him at the gallery among his beautiful multi-media creations. Coconut Grove is in for a treat!," said Yianna Katsoulos, French pop singer, who will be on hand for the event.

Wear a gown or tux, come for the occasion and AnnaMaria would love it if men wore the dresses! It is a multi-layered opening; the Mermaid installation is up and Betty Ann Pober's Dear Diary series is being featured on the back wall.

AnnaMaria Windisch-Hunt said...: You can improvise, there are so many Thrift shops around. I found my dress for $29.99 and as it had a blue tag it was reduced by 75% coming to the grand total of $7 plus change.; September 02, 2009 10:45 AM
