SAUSALITO ART FESTIVAL: GALA PREMIERE
“I was ready for another one of these society
snoozers with pip-pippers pipping about summer
homes and trips to Aspen, burdening the artists with
cute quips, glassware clinking, a flugelhorn zither
piccolo ensemble droning Tibetan laundry dirges in
the background... but noooooo. This is one get-
down kick-ass music and dance extravaganza, and,
I might add, probably one of the better kept Bay
Area art party secrets (we all know the Sausalito Art
Festival; we don't know the Gala Premiere). It's a
show opening unlike any I've been to-- fast,
energized, lasting well into the night, and it's good
good good! For the gastronomically impaired,
there's plenty of smoked salmon, fresh oysters, filet
mignon with spinach and 'taters, skewer chicken
over rice, pasta with sauteed fresh vegetables, and
mountains of desserts. For those who prefer
drinking dinner, there's bars out the ying-yang. Burp.
So let's talk art. Sure, you've got your typical art fair
medley of happy art, bright art, trick art, clever art,
gimmick art, goofy art, amusing art, eyes-staring-at-
you art, furniture art, clothing art, jewelry art-- and
pretty much all of it is at or near the top in terms of
quality, with a healthy percentage weighing in at
outstanding. The artists come from everywhere, both
nationally and internationally, and basically comprise
the cream of the creative Bedouins…”
