Knowledge is Power!
The paintings, wood, metal and stone art works of Smiley Ismael Cazarez went on display the evening of Friday May 16th at the Café on A Art Gallery and Cultural Arts Center.
Smiley is a very prolific artist who uses a broad range of materials in his themes, including his personal appearance in the Indian Dance of the Mask Spirit. His mask was composed of antlers, huge feathers and Spirit Face. Adding to the emotional drama, a two-drum drummer pounded out haunting beats as Ismael whirled onto the floor captivating the audiences attention. Some of the children found it riveting, while a few of the younger ones seemed a little frightened with the visual realism.”*
