Savannah, get ready for a splash of color and creativity! Blue Edge Business Solutions is thrilled to kick off a fantastic new art exhibition series called The BE Exhibition. This innovative event is set to showcase talented local artists, and the very first opening night will feature the amazing Savannah-based abstract artist, Calvin Woodum.
The grand opening reception for The BE Exhibition is happening on Saturday, April 12, 2024, from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM. You can find this celebration of art at the Blue Edge Studio, located at 300 Drayton Street, right in the heart of beautiful Savannah. This is a wonderful opportunity to embrace local talent and get to know one of Savannah’s artistic gems!
The title of the exhibition, “BE,” carries a double meaning. It not only reflects the name of the organizing company but also signifies Woodum’s artistic philosophy about the simple act of being. The exhibition will feature a variety of Woodum’s striking works including his captivating series “What’s Left Behind” and “EVOO.” His pieces are known for their vibrant colors and abstract forms that leave plenty of room for personal interpretation.
Calvin Woodum is no newcomer to the art scene in Savannah. With over two decades in the community, he has worn many hats, contributing his expertise to places like the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) and Telfair Museums. Woodum has also been a proactive member of the artistic community, having served as Chair for the Friends of African American Art (FAAA). His work goes beyond just painting; it engages in meaningful cultural dialogue through art.
The opening night promises to be a delightful evening filled with art and conversation. Guests can enjoy light refreshments and small bites while mingling with others who share a passion for artistic expression. To top it all off, there will be a Q&A session with Woodum himself, where guests can gain deeper insights into his creative process and artistic vision.
If you fall in love with any of the displayed artwork, you’re in luck! Not only will all pieces be available for purchase, but 100% of the proceeds will go directly to the artist, making it a win-win situation for everyone involved. You can take home a piece of local creativity while supporting Savannah’s talented artists.
