Open Studio with Panmela Castro

Exhibition: June 9, 2017 – July 14, 2017

Reception:

Synergy Coworking and Gallery Marzen are pleased to present this Open Studio event, an evening with Rio-based artist and change-maker Panmela Castro. Castro is a world renowned creative entrepreneur and human rights activist who’s artwork spotlights the female body in dialogue with the urban landscape and questions of otherness and binary gender. Her powerful imagery appears on exteriors in ten countries around the world, from right here in Madison (Willy St Co-op East) to Paris, Israel, Austria, Brazil and more.

Marzen will host a community live painting event and Synergy Coworking will facilitate a silent auction for the benefit of Rede NAMI, Castro’s non-profit women’s/human rights organization. Guests will also have the opportunity to partake in a themed live painting facilitated by Marzen, which will be donated to DAIS of Dane County.
