AMUSE YOURSELF BY MOUSING OVER THIS PICTURE

After more than a year of planning and a shocking amount of work involving 40+ artist/teams and scores of volunteers, Sarah Kavage and Nicole Kistler threw open the gates at "The Estuary" tonight for the opening reception of Duwamish Revealed. It was a picture perfect evening to stroll in the shadows of Christian French's hulking but languid shipping container sculpture, listen to Mark Johnson's resounding installation, and watch the premiere of Berlin artists Klaas Hübner and Lysandre Coutu-Sauvé's performance Clear. The sun set as Lori Goldston bowed an amplified cello hauntingly but few attendees seemed to notice, which seemed kind of fitting as the river exists for most at the periphery of Seattle's consciousness, a mere conduit for industry better not looked at up close. The aim of Duwamish Revealed is to bring it front and center, if only for the summer... but hopefully much longer.
