MARTY WALKER GALLERY
PRESENTS
FRANCES BAGLEY WITNESS
OCT 20 – NOV 25, 2006
Marty Walker Gallery presents new work by artist Frances Bagley. With this current body of work, Bagley continues to address aspects of the human body but has taken a turn toward the surreal by incorporating realistic video imagery with sculpture and installation. Under the exhibition title: Witness, Bagley asks questions of both the subject and the viewer by addressing issues of reality, identity and privacy. She creates works that are alluring and yet often uncomfortable to perceive and while seeking to portray the immediate and the vulnerable in her work, she always makes the process visible.

Beat time to the sounds of
The Octopus Project has created a unique sound perhaps best described as “ambidextrous equipment failure junk-tronica,” merging the experimentation of progressive post-rock, the blips and bleeps of electronica, and the raw, human ROCK of rock.

Sweet Tart :: October 7 – 29 2006
500X Gallery
500 Exposition Avenue
Dallas, TX 75226
214-828-1111
Opening Reception Saturday, October 7, 2006 6-10 PM
featuring new works by: John Oliver Lewis & Jessica McCambly
John Oliver Lewis uses recognizable forms combined with abstract patchwork to create sculptures that generate an erratic sense of purpose. These flights of imagination are supported by the inspection of architecture, natural land formations, caricature and vehicles of travel, as well as by cartoons, contemporary fashion, knick-knacks, fishing lures, boy’s and girl’s toys and relationships. The resulting sculpture is a comical union of his manifestations that has the appearance of candy.
Jessica McCambly is interested in the potential for emotion and nuance within an aesthetically minimal context. Her works on paper are an exploration of the idea that formal simplicity can evoke complexity and intimacy in experience.
Works by Jessica McCambly:
“ithinkimfloating” (detail)
Embossing Enamel, Acrylic on board
2006 (left)
“Have You Ever Met Devotion?” (detail)
Embossing Enamel, Acrylic on board
2006 (right)

Adikt Footwear Apparel
Adikt Footwear and Apparel reports The Chain Gang Hoodies came as quikly as they left. It only took one hour for these guys to sell out. Unfortunately they won’t ever be printed again, so if you’re like me we’ll never even know what we missed. On a brighter note the Fall/Holiday line from 10 Deep is very promising, so we’ll get a chance to redeem ourselves.
Adikt gives Dallas a great mix of sneakers, art and clothing.
It’s a great place to find really unique, fun, and funky footwear and to get caught up on fashion trends that have not previously been represented in Dallas.
Adikt carries the hottest brands such as 10 deep, 7th letter, playing for keeps, spoon fed, mishka, king stampede, rocksmith, complete technique, dissizit, akomplice, jask, mighty healthy, reebok, vans vault, creative rec, greedy genius, new balance.
Adikt is a west village shop located at

“I create installations using ornament as a tool to make suggestions about the nature of narrative structure. I draw highly decorative arrangements of shapes to be embedded with unexpected motifs that are in reference to an enigmatic story continuously changing as it unfolds. I hope to inspire the intellectual creativity of the viewer to uncover new stories or meanings from within the psychological experience of seeing.??? ~ Nancy Brown
