New show in the windows – Nate Petterson Art

The Uneasy Everyday: by Nate Petterson

Nate Petterson is a painter, usually. But last year he spent a semester in the clay studio at the University of Minnesota and these bottles emerged…broken, misshapen, sometimes with faces and protuberances. They are uneasy even as they reflect the everyday experience of a discarded bottle of root beer. The show will be up through Christmas. be sure to walk by and view Nate Petterson art.
