FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Last year, Atlanta area residents were buzzing about Sheep Incognito - Contemporary Sheep Art with a Funny Bone. After long lines in 2007, Conni Togel's sheep exhibit will double the exhibition space and will return this weekend as a part of the Alpharetta Arts Streetfest in Alpharetta, GA.
ANDERSON, SC (CHARISMA-ART), April 11, 2008 - Contemporary sheep artist Conni Togel is counting down the days until Atlanta area residents will join in on the political fun and the comments on the human condition with her new Sheep Incognito exhibit at the upcoming Alpharetta Arts Streetfest. With her new display, sheep of all nations have finally found a voice - a smorgasblog of mutton so-to-speak.
Sheep Incognito will feature over one hundred originals and limited edition giclee art prints that will make everybody - even in this economic downturn - enjoy art and smile again.
Look out for "Passing Gas", "Out of Place", "The Black Sheep of the Family", "Tiki Baaa", "Bull-Sit", and many more...
When you talk with Conni Togel about her sheep on canvas, she describes them as "cunning allegories packed in woolly wrappings - juxtaposed between reality and fantasy, in a world full of silliness and wry observations".
For her, the sheep are "messengers of insanity and camouflaged comments on social and political happenings". "Sheep Incognito" is her response to the world's changes around us.
The exhibit can be found in Historic Downtown Alpharetta on Milton Avenue and will open on Saturday, April 19 from 10am to 6pm, and Sunday, April 20 from 10am to 6pm.
The creations will then travel South and East, making stops in Alabama, Maryland, New York, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Florida.
In addition to Sheep Incognito, visitors will enjoy original high-quality art from artists throughout the South. This colorful festival features live jazz and acoustical music, cultural arts performances, theatre in the park and festival cuisine. There is something for every style, taste and budget with items from the most traditional to the most contemporary.
Don't miss out on the wildest sheep that everyone is talking about - and you just might discover their hidden agenda before they move on towards other pastures.
Conni Togel will be available for news media interviews. Interested reporters should contact Peter Togel at 719-271-6422 by 4 p.m. on Friday, April 18, 2008.
