7)  KATIE GINGRASS GALLERY – (241 N Broadway - 414.289.0855 - gingrassgallery.com) Au Naturel. To be "au naturel" is to be stripped down, brought back to the simplest form. But it is also a metaphor for a fresh start. And as the last piles of snow slowly disappear and the crisp scent of spring starts to fill the air, we look at both definitions combined. It only seems natural, now, to hang a show that brings with it a feeling of rejuvenation and a new beginning. With Au Naturel, we present a collection of nature-inspired art in a variety of media. Our intent is to show nature at its best; an idealistic view of all the beautiful possibilities that our world can hold. Artist Reception, April 15 from 5 to 9pm. Exhibition April 1 through June 30.
