The American Tobacco Campus' Strickland Bldg. lobby is gearing up for a new exhibition, this one by North Carolina artist Bob Timberlake, whose career and gallery showings stretch over a four decade period. From the ATC's release:
Bob Timberlake is an internationally recognized realist artist who makes his home in Lexington, N.C. His illustrious career has included eight successful exhibitions at New York's prestigious Hammer Galleries, the Corcoran Gallery in Washington, D.C., the Frye Museum in Seattle, Washington, the North Carolina Museum of Art and the Isetan Gallery in Tokyo, Japan. He has received numerous honors for his work and his commitment to philanthropic endeavors including recognition from Presidents Carter and Reagan and Prince Charles. Timberlake has released seven books including The Bob Timberlake Collection (with text by Charles Kuralt).
Now a selection of Timberlake's work is coming to downtown Durham -- and the first twenty readers who are interested can get two free tickets to a VIP, invitation-only reception this Thursday night at American Tobacco's Bay 7, where the artist will be present to talk about his work.
There's only enough tickets for the first twenty respondents, so if you're interested, send an email to timberlakeatc@gmail.com to get tickets for you and one guest.

Did I win???? :)
