Fountain Street gallery opens its first Pop-Up exhibit, Making a Painting: The Blue Tarp Project, featuring the work of Joseph Fontinha.

The show highlights a variety of recent projects from the artist’s work, including painting, drawing, installation, video, and studio recreation. Several portions of Joseph’s recent work from The Blue Tarp Project, Blue Box Theater, and Fake Studio will be exhibited and the artist himself will be re-creating his studio experience as a live part of the exhibit.

For a few days Fountain Street Gallery will be his studio as he explores art’s potential in capturing truly authentic experience.
