XXL exhibit opens Saturday, November 21, runs through December 31
In XXL, a group show of hand-crafted furniture and monumental works fills the extra-large gallery space of Pia Sjölin Design in Suite 209 of the Shoppes at Farmington Valley on Route 44 in Canton. From larger-than-life representations of real-world objects to supersized abstract paintings and sculpture, works by the participating artists play with our sense of scale.

Jeffery Leitz, painting
Mike Detelj, painting

Works include a shimmering green blown-glass pear nearly two feet tall, created by Gilmore Glass, and a king-size bed by Thomas Denton. Among the paintings, a 17-foot vertical banner by emerging artist Mike Detelj incorporates influences from action painting to graffiti art.
An opening reception kicks off the exhibit, Saturday, November 21, 6–9 pm at the gallery.
Concurrently, in the Spotlight gallery niche, Fusion/Photo/Art showcases more conventionally sized photographic fusion images by Joe Galiette.
