ABOV.jpgJoin us for an enjoyable evening in the company of fellow RNA members and enjoy the artwork at ABOV Gallery as they host our October Business Social on Wednesday, October 18th from 5:30 until 7:00pm. They'll be serving up cocktails and hors d'ouevres-- you don't want to miss this great autumn evening of networking, artwork, and conversation in River North.

ABOV features works of art crafted from satellite data recorded from over 400 miles above the Earth. At first glance these images might resemble oil paintings or photographs. In reality, the textures found naturally on the surface of the Earth create the same depth, detail and touch of a skilled brush stroke. Nature leaves its mark and the ABOV artists "paint" that signature. In the near future ABOV will be releasing the first photographs from Stuart Black's "Shooting the Past" collection. These are photographs from cold war spy satellites from the 1960-1980s and Chicago and Lake Shore Drive will be the first images released. They're black/white and part of the ABOV Retro Satellite Photography series.

At the Business Social, business cards will be collected and two cards will be selected to receive 20% off of their first art purchase. (size restrictions apply).

Complimentary to RNA Members; Non-Members $15
