The Counterpoint Cafe --
New Work by Stephan Phillips and Yvonne Piburn 

*Wednesday, July 1st, through Sunday, July 26, 2009
**Opening reception: Friday, July 3rd, 5-8 pm*




Staged cafe tables and jazz music transform the typical gallery setting. 
Life and art become entwined as objects from the paintings spill over 
onto the tables of the cafe. Different interpretations of our world come 
into focus as viewers see its representation in painting. This is the 
Counterpoint Cafe.

How do we as individuals respond to the world around us?  At State of 
the Art Gallery during July, Yvonne Piburn and Stephan Phillips, two 
artists working within the still life genre, explore this question.   
Their show, called /The Counterpoint Café/ is an exhibition of new work 
by both artists.
