You may be wondering, ‘What is an Art Salon?’

A salon is defined as “a gathering of people under the roof of an inspiring host, held partly to amuse one another and partly to refine the taste and increase their knowledge of the participants through conversation.”  Salons are commonly associated with the literary and philosophical movements in France during the 17th and 18th centuries.

Join us for a modern-day Art Salon at FP3

An evening of cocktails and conversation with photographer Jack Dzamba.  View his exhibit and book, Paris in Boston.  The book is a collection of fine art photography, bringing to light the Parisian influence in so much of the art and architecture in Boston.

Did you know that the façade of the Boston Public Library is molded on that of the Bibliothèque Saint Genevieve in Paris?  Did you ever notice how much the Genzyme headquarters recalls Notre Dame in the evening?

This event is the premiere of Art New England Magazine’s new Art Salon Series as part of its Art Everywhere Project.  Cocktails will be provided by Cold River Vodka and Ambrosia Events and Catering.

Vicky Tomayko is the latest artist to be featured in the art gallery at FP3.  Her collection of creatures will be on display and free for the public to view during regular business hours until October 9, 2010.  Some of Vicky’s work appeared in today’s Boston Globe.

Vicky’s art was reviewed by Cate McQuiad for the article.  In it, Cate notes:

“Her monotypes of monstrous creatures at FP3 are both comic and melancholy, and she has a vibrant color sense. Look at the drypoint monotype “St. John the Baptist as an Artist.’’ The squishy figure is, of course, headless, and he grips to his chest a pink, heart-shaped critter with one eye on a stalk and a protruding, forked tongue. The suggestion is that this artistic St. John speaks from his heart, but even when the heart speaks, you can’t entirely trust what it says.”

To see more of Vicky’s colorful, sometime whimsical and sometimes melancholy works, stop by the FP3 Gallery or visit the Vicky Tomayko website.

The gallery at FP3 is currently featuring art created by Detroit-born, Cape Cod-based artist, Vicky Tomayko.  FP3 is proud to be hosting Vicky’s first-ever solo art show in Boston.

Stuff tonight notes that Vicky “takes inspiration from nature but imbues her landscapes with wit and weirdness, creating narrative worlds full of whimsical creatures — watchful forests, chubby antenna-eyed bipeds, friendly amoebas. Much of her recent work incorporates multiple printing techniques and focuses on liquid spaces.”

(styleboston) – Get Plugged In to Fort Point Channel, former industrial hub, now, home to much of Boston’s artist community. Tony Corey chats with Joanne Chang, the mastermind behind Flour Bakery + Café, the newest of which just opened in Cambridge. When Joanne Chang came to Fort Point they thought she was crazy. Now, Fort Point Channel is a creative, vibrant neighborhood, so close to downtown crossing, that on any given day it’s all abuzz.

Joanne Chang, owner of Flour Bakery

Chang isn’t the only one who’s made her home there. Barbara Lynch’s food empire is based in Fort Point, Thompson Reuters spans an entire street and, of course, ADD Inc and Rue La La brighten the skyline.

What’s most compelling about living or working in Fort Point? According to ADD Inc.’s Fred Kramer – the people. He said, on any given day, walking down the street, you’re likely to bump into another creative soul, someone who’s young, up and coming, and part of the movement. When you walk down the street in Fort Point, you mingle with artists, designers, green urban planners and a whole lot of intellectuals.

If that doesn’t get you down to Fort Point, Joanne Chang’s cupcakes will! Not only do they “taste like air” according to Tony, but most of them are Vegan! Just like the neighborhood’s credo – there’s a little bit of something for everyone.
