After titanic anatomy lost it’s space on Cass Street in downtown Tampa, there were a bunch of young artists who were basically left without a home to show their work. There was Silver Meteor in Ybor and Gallery 145 in St Pete, but that was it for exhibition\u00a0spaces interested in the up and coming Tampa Bay art scene.<\/h4>\n

Joe Griffith started\u00a0Experimental Skeleton<\/a><\/span>\u00a0on 7th Ave in Ybor City\u00a0and that inspired\u00a0us to continue collaborating and developing projects together. Still, that wasn’t enough. We needed\u00a0at least one more place to exhibit\u00a0work and I knew exactly where it should be… Valrico.<\/h4>\n

It was July 1997.\u00a0I cleaned out my studio and sent an invite to as many artists as I knew, hoping to have enough interest to host a small exhibition. Since the space was only 25′ x 25′ I wasn’t sure how many works I could hold, so I thought that a show of works on paper might be a good idea. I planned a barbecue for the artists, so the first show became “Flammable Art<\/a><\/span>“.<\/h4>\n

There were 27 talented artists exhibiting drawings, paintings, prints, sculptures, photos and writings in the brightly colored Image Brewery space in rural Valrico.\u00a0It was a fine representation of Tampa’s amazing art scene and the first of many exhibitions.<\/h4>\n

October 1997 – Jon Karl Holm was the first artist to show his work in the space after the group show.<\/h4>\n

\u00a0Merican<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0An interactive installation of three dimensional objects that can be handled or rearranged to your liking and even used to express your own artistic ideas.<\/h4>\n

There were antique exercise bicycles that you could ride, wooden boxes with unusual objects within that provided amusement to those who were brave enough to pick them up and shake them around.<\/h4>\n

Tampa Museum of Art Director Emily Cass arrived at the opening to see what was going on so deep in the Valley. She was most impressed with the hotdogs and the record player, and the thriving art scene that made the night so cool.<\/h4>\n

November 1997- Another group show that featured 45 artists. This time there were two other galleries involved in another great showcase of artistry. The exhibition was a three night event that bridged the art communities of the Tampa \/ St. Pete area. The artists exhibited their work in all three galleries.<\/h4>\n

Friday night the Lost Weekend was kicked off at\u00a0Gallery at 145\u00a0in St. Pete. Saturday, the crowd moved to the\u00a0Image Brewery\u00a0in Valrico, and on Sunday, the exciting weekend was celebrated at the\u00a0Silver Meteor Gallery\u00a0in Ybor City.<\/h4>\n

February 1998 –\u00a0The Mandragora Project<\/strong>\u00a0–\u00a0A Project designed by Joe Griffith of the Experimental Skeleton.<\/h4>\n

The MANDRAGORA Project has been a continuing practice for the last five years. It is an investigation into the myths and scientific history of the narcotic mandrake root. It is also a further exploration into how meaning is projected onto objects and the collapse of possibilities. The root, which resembles a little human figure, is multiplied and dispersed to remote places: fields, woods, back lots, and roadsides where they may be stumbled upon. The multiples are, however, designed to disappear.<\/h4>\n

May 2001 – A.A. Rucci “BARRIERS<\/strong>“<\/h1>\n

After more than a year, Image Brewery is finally exhibiting once again, celebrating its reopening with an installation of AA Rucci’s sculptural artifacts, illustrative text, reconstructive drawings and color photos documenting the recent excavation of a concrete road barrier in Tampa.<\/h4>\n

An added delight was an evening of performance with live music from local heroes Monkey Fist Hypocrisy<\/strong> (MFH) who later became Telephone Booth<\/strong><\/a> – Valrico’s first Electro Wave Recording artists. Special guest performance by Finn Bolam, as Monkey Finn Hypocracy.<\/h4>\n

This was the last official exhibition held at Valrico\u2019s Image Brewery. From that point on it returned to an artist studio for Bob Dorsey, the unofficial Mayor of Valrico.<\/h4>\n

After titanic anatomy lost it's space on Cass Street in downtown Tampa, there were a bunch of artists who were basically left without a home to show their work. There was Silver Meteor in Ybor and Gallery 145 in St Pete, but that was it for gallery spaces.<\/p>

Joe Griffith started Experimental Skeleton<\/a> in Tampa and that allowed us to continue developing projects. I felt like we could all benefit by having at least one more place to show work and I knew exactly where it should be. Valrico.<\/p>

It was July 1997.\u00a0I cleaned out my studio and sent an invite to as many artists as I knew, hoping to have enough interest to host a small exhibition. Since the space was only 25' x 25' I wasn't sure how many works I could hold, so I thought that a show of works on paper might be a good idea. I planned a barbecue for the artists, so the first show became \"Flammable Art<\/a>\". There were 27 artists exhibiting drawings, paintings, prints, sculptures, photos and writings in the brightly colored Image Brewery.<\/p>

A friend of mine brought home brewed beer for the opening, so I created bottle labels and applied them to his bottles. I think he sold them. Wish I had one for the archives!<\/p>

October 1997 - Jon Karl Holm was the first artist to show his work in the space after the group show. Merican<\/strong> -\u00a0An interactive installation of three dimensional objects that can be handled or rearranged to your liking and even used to express your own artistic ideas. There were antique exercise bicycles that you could ride, wooden boxes with unusual objects within that provided amusement to those who were brave enough to pick them up and shake them around.\u00a0Emily Cass from the Tampa Museum of Art showed up to see what was going on so deep in the Valley.<\/p>

November 1997- \u00a0The Lost Weekend<\/strong><\/p>

\"LostWeekend.Devon.Tiff\"<\/p>

Another group show that featured 45 artists. This time there were two other galleries involved in another great showcase of artistry. The exhibition was a three night event that bridged the art communities of the Tampa \/ St. Pete area. The artists exhibited their work in all three galleries. Friday night the Lost Weekend was kicked off at\u00a0Gallery at 145\u00a0in St. Pete. Saturday, the crowd moved to the\u00a0Image Brewery\u00a0in Valrico, and on Sunday, the exciting weekend was celebrated at the\u00a0Silver Meteor Gallery\u00a0in Ybor City.<\/p>

January 1998 -\u00a0TRIGONOMETRY<\/strong> -\u00a0a study from three angles -\u00a0A print portfolio between 15 Artists. 3 pieces each. 3\" x 3\". It was a beautiful and intimate installation.<\/p>

The show was organized by our beloved friend Stephanie Kohn. We miss her every day. Her work is featured below.<\/p>

February 1998 - The Mandragora Project<\/strong> -\u00a0A Project designed by Joe Griffith of the Experimental Skeleton.<\/p>

The MANDRAGORA Project has been a continuing practice for the last five years. It is an investigation into the myths and scientific history of the narcotic mandrake root. It is also a further exploration into how meaning is projected onto objects and the collapse of possibilities. The root, which resembles a little human figure, is multiplied and dispersed to remote places: fields, woods, back lots, and roadsides where they may be stumbled upon. The multiples are, however, designed to disappear.<\/p>
