The Nancy Solomon Gallery, features , "Recent Work by Claude Simard."                           I attended an Art Reception on Friday the 23 of February. The opening was for the artist Claude Simard. The reception took place at the Nancy Solomon Gallery from six to eight . The gallery is located off of Monroe Drive in Atlanta. The exhibition is titled, "Recent Work by Claude Simard.                  The gallery was lit vibrantly with voices and laughter traveling through the night air.

A world where cows hang peacefully from ceilings and children skate rings around eternity.
