ARTE Funktional is hosting an opening reception for a new art exhibit entitled Impassioned Abstraction. Join us at The Factory on Thursday, December 4th from 5-8 PM for mingling, food, drinks and discussion.

Impassioned Abstraction features two artists, Michelle Sorensen and Barry Rafuse. Michelle Sorensen is an artist from Vernon, BC that creates beautiful glass sculptures. Her sought-after artwork gently transmits light and uniquely balances fragility and strength.

Barry Rafuse is a celebrated Canadian textured abstract painter. Using large canvases, his artwork is dramatic and mysterious. Grounded in the natural environment, unstructured texture and colour dance together to create inspiring art.

To join us for the opening reception, please RSVP by email at info @ artefunktional.com (no spaces). We hope to see you there!

Impassioned Abstraction will be on exhibit at The Factory in Kelowna from December 3, 2014 to March 27, 2015. For additional information, visit www.artefunktional.com.
