A Helping Hand, limited edition print by Jim Houser, $35, available at the party Friday night.
Back when Shelley Spector announced the closing of her gallery she promised she’d have a going away party this fall. Well here it comes–this Friday, Sept. 29, 7-9 pm at 510 Bainbridge St.
Mr. 10 Fingers, seen here at the opening of Jim Houser’s last exhibition at Spector, will play music.
Goodbye Spector is a b.y.o.b. celebration with Ben (Mr. 10 Fingers) Woodward dj-ing and a continuous slide show of artists, art and happenings from the gallery’s 7-year run.
A limited edition print by Jim Houser ($35 each-edition of 100) will be available, and from 7:30-8:30 Adam Wallacavage will sign copies of his new book Monster Size Monsters (Gingko Press, 2006-$39.95) which includes many images from the artist’s exhibition at Spector in 1999. Here’s my review of Wallacavage’s book.

Post-gallery closing, Shelley will be working freelance with artists as SPECTOR Projects. (see contact informataion at the bottom). One thing to note: her websites will disappear for a short time around October 1st and Artjaw.com’s October story will post late.
“Thanks for everything and hope to see you (at the party),” says Shelley.
