One hundred years ago, celebrated architect C.W. Dickey designed the historic Kaluanui Estate for Harry and Ethel Baldwin. Now the site of Maui’s Hui No‛eau Visual Arts Center, the iconic property is being honored this year with the Kaluanui Centennial 10×10 Exhibition, a juried gallery showing of 100 selected works. Artists were challenged to create two-dimensional and three-dimensional pieces that fit within a defined space of ten inches (10″x10″x10″).
With artwork in a variety of mediums – from painting to photography to ceramics and more, this gallery exhibit is a delightful look at the many ways creative minds interpret the ten inch space.
Several paintings line the walls, and the imagery of island life is a featured theme.
Three-dimensional works include sculptural pieces, ceramics, and glass.
Photography is given new life through the use of inventive design.
Mixed media and collage add a whimsical feel to the gallery.
Kaluanui is celebrated through artistic works inspired by the estate.
The Kaluanui Centennial 10×10 Exhibition is a colorful celebration of the artistic community’s appreciation for the historic charms of the Hui No‛eau’s iconic property. The show runs through Saturday, July 22nd and the gallery is open daily from 9am to 4pm.
The Hui will also be hosting a Kaluanui Centennial Celebration on Saturday, July 22nd from 10am to 2pm. The event will feature a family friendly day with tours of the property and art studios, interactive artist demos, local food trucks, and entertainment.
