Jim Bohnhoff’s hanging dub dub dub promotes the WWW exhibit at the NAG

By Griff Wigley, on July 7, 2011, 10:52 am

This morning, Jim Bohnhoff pointed me to his latest creation, a hanging dub dub dub that promotes the WWW Exhibit at the Northfield Arts Guild. Right photo: psychologist Elaine Nesbit struts her stuff while under the influence of art.

According to the blurb on the NAG home page:

This innovative show explores how communications technology has influenced contemporary life, revolutionizing how we interact and process time and experience. Features a ten-minute mediated tour of the show running continuously at the NAG, the Northfield Public Library, and on U-Tube.

25 local and regional artists exhibit in this intriguing and very diverse show. The opening reception is this Friday evening, July 8, 6 – 9 pm, and is part of the Northfield Gallery Crawl. Stop in to meet artists and enjoy this thought provoking work.

Thx, John.

Any idea what the NAG’s Twitter account is? The one listed on their Facebook Info page doesn’t work.

Nice photos Griff -- I especially like how you caught Elaine N. in some type of ‘artistic’ jig -- right under the WWW. Also, the WWW Fiber & Textile Exhibit at the Nfld Arts Guild is an excellent show -not to be missed!

Snow globe repairman Dick Heibel featured in Strib video (9)
- Griff Wigley: Just an FYI to those inquiring: Dick Heibel doesn’t check this blog, he does not have email that I know of, and his web page is no longer working. You’ll have to phone him. I’m not sure if this number is current but...
- Mary-Lynn Wigodsky: Hello Mr. Heibel, I would love to have my small snow globe repaired. It has a small figurine that is broken in just two places. The base looks solid. We had it in our home growing up in the 50′s -but it may be older than...
