The Spurious Fugitive: A Postmodern Gallery, Opens In Downtown South Bend Page 1 of 2 <br /> � v%• 'Building a 21St Century City " <br /> ' rs Stephen J. Luecke, Mayor <br /> RELEASE FROM: FOR RELEASE: <br /> DownTown South Bend Monday, October 24, 2005 <br /> The Spurious Fugitive: A Postmodern Gallery, Opens In Downtown South Bend <br /> Local art collectors and enthusiasts will be delighted to learn that award winning fine artist and graphic <br /> designer, Scott L. Hatt has opened a new "white cube" gallery in Downtown South Bend called The <br /> Spurious Fugitive:A Postmodern Gallery. <br /> Exhibiting and selling only fine art of avante guard, emerging and mid-career artists, this minimalist space is <br /> envisioned by Hatt as one of the few places where regional artists can receive public visibility and <br /> professional guidance before taking their work and careers to the national level. <br /> Hatt, who officially opened his gallery doors during this year's September 14th Art Beat to a record crowd of <br /> about 500 visitors, says, "Currently there is no art gallery in the greater South Bend area that exhibits and <br /> sell postmodern art at our price point. Prior to our opening, art collectors had to go out of town to either New <br /> York or Chicago to get edgy stuff. The response we've had from the art buying public has been wonderful" <br /> The gallery, which is located at 114 West Colfax in South Bend, will represent and exhibit a small handful of <br /> regional artists along with a rotating schedule of monthly exhibitions featuring national and international <br /> postmodern artists. Private collection consultation, corporate collection initiatives, and marketing services for <br /> emerging artists will also be offered. <br /> On exhibit this November 2nd through November 27th will be Boston based mixed media artist, Lorin <br /> Hesse, who Hatt discovered in the emerging artist edition of Art News. Lorin Hesse: Solo represents the first <br /> national artist to exhibit in the gallery. <br /> Hatt adds, " went to Lorin's website and just fell in love with her work. The joy that she brings to her pieces <br /> is so evident. She paints with such high key colors you can't help but feel the fun she's having." <br /> The Spurious Fugitive is open Wednesday through Saturday from noon until 9 p.m. and on Sunday from <br /> noon until 5 p.m. For more information please call 574-232-2377 or visit Haft's website at www.scotthatt.com <br /> Robin Slutsky, 282-1110, #106 <br /> Marketing & Development Coordinator DTSB <br /> Back I City Home Page I City Directory I Site Map I Search Go <br /> powered by FreeFind <br /> Created by the City of South Bend Department of Information Technologies. <br /> http://www.ci.south-bend.in.us/Press/Releases 2005/102405 Gallery.htm 1/13/2006 <br />
