“The Power of Red” – Exhibit – Art Center Morro Bay
There is no denying the power of red. The color symbolizes an undeniable sense of extremes: strength, passion, heat, luck, wealth and confidence.
Each artist in this show was asked, “In a single word, what does the use of red represent in your artistic creation? Anger? Joy? Foreboding? Realism? Love? Danger?”
This exhibit will be on display from April 6th – May 15th
