JOHN TINDEL BRINGS HIS IMAGINARY BEINGS TO THE DEFOOR CENTRE

JOHN TINDEL BRINGS HIS IMAGINARY BEINGS TO THE DEFOOR CENTRE

WORKS THAT WILL INTRIGUE THROUGH THE END OF THE YEAR

Atlanta GA – The Defoor Centre will end the year in the Forum Gallery with local favorite John Tindel and his paintings. The collection will be up from November 7 –through December 31st with an opening reception on November 11 from 7PM to 9:30PM.
The event is free and all ages are welcome.

This exhibit aptly titled, Imaginary Beings is a collection of art based off the book by Luis Borges of the same title. Tindel explores the creatures dreamed by philosophers and writers. The show will also feature collaborative pieces with artists Sam Parker, Alex Feliciano and Michi Meko.

John Tindel was born and raised in the South has been a fixture on the Atlanta art scene since graduating University of South Alabama in 1999. His keen eye on design and color exposes the content of the imagery. He’s always working on a new view or angle to convey to the viewer pushing the envelope. With his design and marketing background Tindel has had success with fashion merchandising that was featured at Bloomingdale’s.

The Defoor Centre is located off Howell Mill Rd in Atlanta in the reviving Westside neighborhood, where a lot of local vendors that cater to the interior designers have been going to for years. The Defoor Centre has been a growing facility hosting major fundraisers to corporate meetings to private weddings all in house catering with a full bar. 100 years ago this place was a hospital for the soldiers fighting at the Battle of Peachtree Creek and to this day they are “still there.”
