On Saturday July 15 X.po.zur gallery (https://xpozur.gallery) will have a comfortable opening from 5 to 8 p.m. with wine, beverages, and light hors d’ouerves. Nothing fancy, just friends enjoying the art, the view, the people, the food, the wine. The public is invited and encouraged to attend.

Krueger wants his gallery to be a participatory gallery. And by that he means that he wants the space to be used by musicians, culinary artists, visual artists, writers, poets.

He says, “While our relationship with established art collectors is more definitive and specialized, our community mission is to create a more complete gallery experience within an interactive framework.

”The first artists being exposed at X.po.zur are Armando Bertoli and Estelle Nussbaum. On the Xpozur website, the following statement appears from Mr. Bertoli: “The viewer needs to participate. I believe: that the true underlying fabric of Reality exists only as possibility. It is only through the Observer’s mental faculty that form, structure, all the material aspects of perceived reality come into being.”

The casual opening date is Saturday July 15 from 5-8 p.m. at 263 Riverside Avenue in Westport. There will be a more formal, private event opening on Saturday July 22 about which Mr. Krueger is happy to inform you.
