EYE OF THE EAGLE ART HOSTS RECEPTION FOR ARTIST DUANE BROWN FEATURING HIS UNIQUE SCULPTURAL TEAPOTS


The Eye of the Eagle Art in Downtown Clayton will host an opening Art Reception for artist Duane Brown on Friday, August 14, 2009 from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. The event is free and open to the public.

Duane Brown will exhibit his unique sculptural teapots at Eye of the Eagle art for the month of August. He currently teaches art at Cleveland Middle School, and has exhibited his murals and ceramic sculptures in Tennessee and North Carolina. Creating a dynamic teapot that has a working lid, spout and handle is the driving force of his work. The teapots on exhibit are primarily sculptures. The artist calls them functioning, non practical teapots. You can use them but he doesn’t recommend brewing Grandma’s tea in them.

The gallery and art center is located at 131 E First Street, Clayton, NC 27520. Gallery Hours are 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Tuesday through Friday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday. You can call 919-585-2461, email art@eyeoftheeagleart.com or go to www.eyeoftheeagleart.com for further information. The mission of The Eye of the Eagle Art is to support the arts, the artists both professional and emerging, and bring the arts alive in the community.
