Corey Helford Gallery is pleased to present "Literartistry", a group show featuring works of art inspired by the written word. As Michelangelo was inspired by Dante’s The Divine Comedy and John Everett Millais by Ophelia in Shakespeare’s Hamlet, each artist in "Literartistry" will base their piece on a book that has inspired or affected them in a meaningful way. Upstairs, the Gallery’s loft space will be transformed into a classic library stocked with titles featured in the show. Guests will have the opportunity to check out the artists’ favorite books for their reading enjoyment – just as they would at a traditional library. The opening reception for "Literartistry" will take place on Saturday, August 11 from 7 to 10pm and is open to the public. The exhibition will remain on view until September 5, 2007.

Participating artists to date include:
Jason Shawn Alexander, Erik Alos, Chris Anthony, Chris Conn Askew, Attaboy, Anthony Ausgang, Lauren Bergman, Andrew Brandou, Dave Burke, Paul Chatem, Greg Clarke, Amy Crehore, Camilla d’Ericco, Jason Dugan, Korin Faught, Sarah Folkman, Melissa Forman, Andrew Foster, Lauren Gardiner, Andrew Hem, Michael Hussar, Stella Im Hultberg, Mari Inukai, Wednesday Kirwan, Kukula, Joe Ledbetter, Tiffany Liu, Kevin Llewellyn, Lola, Jeff McMillan, Lisa Moneypenny Murray, Tom Neely, Joe O’Neill, Alex Pardee, Kevin Peterson, Joshua Petker, Carlos Ramos, Sergio Rebia, Joey Remmers, Lesley Reppeteaux, Isabel Samaras, Mijn Schatje, Nathan Spoor, Bob Staake, Gin Stevens, David Stoupakis, Cassandra Szekely, Heidi Taillefer, The Pizz, Sage Vaughn, Amanda Visell, David VonDerLinn, and Jasmine Worth.
