MIR gallery hosts Miranda Herrick’s “Works and Days”

November 15, 2008 |

If you haven’t seen Miranda Herrick’s “Works and Days” exhibition at the newly opened MIR Gallery, you must schedule it into the remaining November calendar!  Amazing for a number of reasons and on many levels – not the least sheer beauty – the show is a visual tour de force that should not be missed.

The exhibition of 365 pen and ink drawings, a different design completed for each day in 2007, is entirely unique in design and color and a delight by any visual standard.  Each piece stands alone by its attention to detail, precision in execution, and impressive imaginative variety of geometrical play.  Hung together as a body of work, however, the impact is striking to any viewer stepping into this newly opened gallery in downtown Nashville’s Arcade Building.  The 7-by-7 inch drawings completely cover the walls of the upper balcony space in a tightly hung color-wheel representation of the year; the impact on the visual senses upon entering is awe-inspiring.  «Read the rest of this article»
