Recap: We Are Monsters

Last Friday, May 6, 2011, we attended the "We Are Monsters" art show opening at Pleasant Plains Workshop in Washington, DC. It was a fun night and many people attended the show. I am excited to see so many inventive monsters by the top artists in the DC area.


I got to premiere my monster, MASER, and hopefully he has not killed anyone in their sleep for calling him cute.

Make sure you check out more of the photos we took on the Curls Studio Facebook Page and "like" us while you are at it!

If you missed the opening and want to check out "We Are Monsters" in person, Pleasant Plains Workshop is open to the public on Fridays 2-7PM and Saturdays 1-6PM at 2608 Georgia Avenue, NW.

Thanks to Anthony Dihle for organizing the show.

We Are Monsters - MASER Sneak Peek

Above is a sneak peek of my monster, MASER, specifically made for the exhibit We Are Monsters.

I will be posting new facts about MASER weekdays on my Twitter account leading up to the opening on May 6. Follow me @CarolynBelefski. Today we learned "he eats gravel and will kill you in your sleep if you call him cute."

We Are Monsters features a hand-picked group of over twenty artists, illustrators, and designers who are bringing their beasts to the heart of DC. Dual heads, third-eyes, cloven hoofs, purple fur, and forked tongues will be found in obscene abundance. Media will include painting, drawing, photography, sculpture, maybe even a little video. Opening Friday, May 6, from 7–9PM at Pleasant Plains Workshop, 2608 Georgia Avenue, NW.

Artists include: Marc Crisafulli, Carolyn Belefski, Greg Pizzoli, Dana Jeri Maier, Antonio Peters, Adam Dwight, Elizabeth Graeber, John Foster, Rich Bernett, Tim Gibbon, Melinda Rainsberger, Catherine Smith, Josh Dihle, Mike O'Brien, Allison Glancey, Ivan Anic, Evan Keeling, Kristina Bilonick, Stephanie Kwak, Steve Loya , Jodi Hoover , Lisa Adang, Pia Blumenthal, Anthony Dihle
