{lanyop} lagniappe small art gallery
'Teddy shamans' are little assemblage pieces by Larry Matthews that change throughout the month of the exhibit which will go until the 31st of march.
{lanyop} lagniappe small art gallery opens only at night - when the sky is dark. Work is viewed only by candlelight making for an intimate encounter with the works in the blackened gallery. This is the concept for all shows (generally) at {lanyop} and live piano music played by the gallery owner/curator (Larry Matthews) accompanies the works.

An interview with Larry Matthews from the show on the 23rd January 2010: Larry Matthews has recently opened a new gallery space LAGNIAPPE (pronounced LAN - YOP) in an obscure little location in behind the Mou Very Bar on George St. Only open at night (in fact - only in hours of darkness) the intimate little space exhibits "Miniature Art" which one examines under candlelight. A wonderful little surprise and an interesting discussion of the gallery's genesis.
