Willoughby maybe a bit of a trek for some people in the Cleveland area, but it sounds like the new show at The Art Gallery (its actual name) at 38721 Mentor Avenue, Suite 1, will be worth it.
Gallery owner Jacques P. Jackson and Artists Archives of the Western Reserve have worked together to create Fool me One, a show described as “focused on the art of the practical joke … bating satire, silly. Puns, optical illusion, hidden imagines or meanings, visual shenanigans and/or general tomfoolery.”
The show will feature work by 13 artists including six Archived Artists — Bonnie Dolin, Leslie Humez, George Kocar, Stuart Pearl, Mindy Tousley and Robert Jergens —along with Billy the Robot, Mark Keffer, Scott Kraynak, Victor Melaragno, Andrew Reach, Mark Soppeland and Gwen Waight. The show opens with a free public reception on Thursday April 2, and will be on view through May 1.
