House Fire in Tampa Heights at 408 Hugh Street
Early monday morning there was a house fire at the home of Davey & Sharon Zeigler in Tampa Heights. At around 3 a..m Clint Bowers, next door neighbor was awoken by noise & flames coming from the electrical panel. He quickly alerted the Zeiglers and they were able to escape with no major injuries. The Red Cross has found temporary housing for the family. Please, let this be a warning to all of us. I know these old houses can get really cold but please follow these few tips. Don't fall asleep with space heaters running. Make sure if you do run space heaters to have them pull off of separate breakers. If you have keyed deadbolt locks leave your key in them when you go to sleep. Test your smoke alarms, etc.

Reviews?
Anyone been to Ella's yet? The Independent? Care to tell us about your experience? Send it in!
I'm curious about The Independent and meant to go in there myself on Friday night, but the storm stopped me. The only thing I seem to hear with frequency is that it's expensive. Can anyone comment?

The Independent
Our Seminole Heights neighbors to the north of us, have finally got their own version of St. Pete's famous beer hall, The Independent . They are having a "soft opening" tonight (Oct. 8) and the "Grand Opening" on Friday. So if you like good beer / wine and conversation feel free to stop by and check it out. Make sure you grab something to eat before you go though, because they are not currently serving food. ( Might I suggest Grass Roots or Ella's) The Independent is located at 5016 N Florida Avenue (Just south of Hillsborough Ave)

Robles Park
As a child growing up I the Tampa Bay area (Brandon) there were always three things that stood out to me while traveling on the Interstate 275 North/South through Tampa. The Sulphur Springs tower, the steeple of Seminole Heights Baptist Church and the beautiful park that abutted the interstate close to Downtown Tampa. Little did I know that as an adult I would find myself living a block away from this park that I now know as Robles Park.
I now enjoy jogging & walking through the park several times a week, with an occasional basketball shoot around now & again. Of course in the fall there are Youth Football practices on the north end (Robles Park Wildcats) but for the most part Robles Park is rather peaceful with a few fishermen present. I am not quite sure what kind of fish they are attempting to catch, but there is a “Beware of Alligator” sign posted on the ponds perimeter. Although after many days at the park, I have yet to see this alligator. The most rewarding part of being at the park is seeing all the bumper to bumper traffic stuck on the Interstate trying to head east on I-4 back to the ‘burbs. It reminds me of why I enjoy living in Tampa Heights and makes me glad that I do not live in Brandon anymore. So if you haven’t been to Robles Park lately, you should give it a go before the days get shorter. Hopefully I will see you while I am circling the pond.

New show at Beu Acier PRINTS
BLEU ACIER INC.
109 WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE TAMPA, FL 33602 TEL/FAX: 813 272 9746
_____________________________________________________________
NEW EDITIONS
OPENING RECEPTION: FRIDAY DECEMBER 12, 2008, 7 - 10 PM
December 12 through February 14, 2009
OPEN STUDIO SATURDAY DECEMBER 13TH FROM 1-5PM
TECHNIQUES DEMONSTRATED AND QUESTIONS ANSWERED ABOUT PRINTMAKING TECHNIQUES.
Bleu Acier is proud to present their new fine art print editions published during 2007 and 2008 in celebration of our 5th anniversary here on Columbus Drive.
The artists in this exhibition have been working with Bleu Acier since the beginning. Several have been working with me for over 2 decades, each print becoming a new piece of a complex oeuvre in motion. The making of an original print is a collaborative alchemy of culture, character, talent, weakness, strength, understanding, accident, hazard, knowledge and questioning. The final goal being the arrival of the artist’s image on its desired support, with the least amount of compromise of the artists thought process. A print must have the same power as an original work of the same artist, printmaking techniques being just another option on the palette of image making. In contemporary creative methods the necessity of collaboration is very present. Whether it be the waterfalls of Olafur Eliasson, funded by the Public Art Fund in New York City, where there were a large number of collaborators to realize this project, an artist with an assistant in order to stretch a large canvas, or an artist desiring to make a print in need of a printer, the impact of collaboration in contemporary image making is important and more and more visible. Collaborative studios of all kinds have opened in recent years devoting themselves to the realization of image through a team effort.
The work exhibited in this exhibition travels through a range of techniques; lithography, etching, direct gravure, photogravure, woodcut and monotype.
The artists included in this show are: Hervé DiRosa, Sylvie Eyberg, Dominique Labauvie, Diana Leavengood, Steve McClure, Claudia Ryan, Peter Soriano, Bernar Venet, Theo Wujcik and Marie Yoho Dorsey.
My guests for this show are Regional Artists Debra Jo Radke and Judith Salmon who have been working at Bleu Acier, and the students from the Printmaking Studio class at The New College of Florida in Sarasota that I have been teaching this semester.
Please bring a bottle to share and come have a piece of cake.
Certain prints will be offered at a special pre publication price for the opening, and during the month of December.
BLEU ACIER INC. is an active fine art print publisher, print atelier, gallery and live-in loft that functions at the intersection of private and public space where art and the city keep company. Bleu Acier exhibits works in all disciplines by emerging, mid-career and established artists from the U.S. and Europe.
Gallery Hours: Saturdays 1 – 5 PM and by appointment For further information contact Erika Schneider 109 WEST COLUMBUS DRIVE TAMPA, FL 33602 TEL/FAX: 813 272 9746 BLEUACIER.COM
