VOTE TO MAKE ALLIE POHL'S"IDEAL WOMAN - FUSCHIA CARYATID" PERMANENT IN FLORIDA

Plus Gallery artist Allie Pohl now has her spectacular sculpture "Ideal Woman - Fuschia Caryatid" on view in Winter Park Florida as part of their "Art on the Green" exhibition.  The city is allowing the public to be proactive in helping them select which artists work will be purchased and become a permanent part of their collection.  You can help Winter Park become one of the coolest cities in the US by voting for Allie's work, just go online to http://cityofwinterpark.org and click on the Art on the Green logo, and then click on the "Vote" tab on that page.  The rest is self explanatory, but remember to add 32789 as your zip code, as it is for local voters!

In addition to Allie's recent outdoor exhibition in Florida and bathroom exhibition in LA, she was also recently featured on actress Zooey Deschanel's happening new site "Hello Giggles," the ultimate destination for "smart, independent and creative females."  Pohl definitely fits that bill perfectly, read her latest interview on the site at

ALLIE POHL'S LATEST "CARYATID" FEATURED IN FLORIDA'S "ART ON THE GREEN" OUTDOOR EXHIBITION

We can't think of anything in the world more tantalizing than coming across Allie Pohl's latest "Ideal Woman - Fuscia Caryatid" sculpture composed of her trademark Ideal Woman forms in chrome, particularly in a beautiful outdoor park-setting. It's almost too good to believe, but that's what folks in the city of Winter Park Florida will get to experience from now though March 1st of 2013 as part of their prestigous juried program "Art on the Green."  Eight sculptural works by artists from around the country are on display in Central Park and on the lawn of City Hall in downtown Winter Park. The works on view were selected by curator Olga Viso, Rollins College graduate and executive director of the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. Along with Allie's spectacular sculpture, the exhibition features works by Russell Bellamy, Doug Makemson, Dale Rogers, Carolina Sardi, Chris Scala, Barbara Sorensen and Bill Woods.

 This is just another notch in Allie's impressively growing belt.  She is also currently involved in a more intimate, yet thoroughly Allie, installation of new photographs in ?Hot Seat? at the Bano Gallery inside Blicher Gallery in Los Angeles.  The fact that the venue happens to be the bathroom in the gallery in no way detracts from the caliber of her work, take a look at

MORE OF THE ALLIE POHL COLLECTION COMES TO PLUS GALLERY

Plus Gallery artist Allie Pohl is quickly becoming recognized on a wide level for her compelling concept centered around the theme of the "Ideal Woman."  She has bridged across platforms that involve both high-art, retail and even environmental installation, the latest of which has now come to Plus Gallery, along with a selection of her scintillating ceramic works.  Pohl's "Ideal Woman: Fence" is another limited edition item with extreme versatility.  The components of the fence can be combined into expansive areas, or as we will have them displayed on occasion outside of Plus Gallery, in their singular modules to contain an object or area.  Stop by to see them for Denver Arts Week, along with the rest of her expansive collection including a wide selection of her popular women's necklaces.

Pohl's significant press profile is growing along with the stature of the institutions who have caught onto her talent, including the Orlando Museum of Art in Florida which will feature Pohl alongside some of the greatest contemporary artists of all time in the upcoming exhibition "XX/XY: Gender Representation in Art." A profile in the most recent issue of the Orlando Arts Magazine had this to say about Pohl:

"Born and raised in Winter Park, where her family still lives, Pohl considers the Orlando area home though she currently resides in Colorado, where she recently earned a Master of Fine Arts at the University of Denver.  She will be in good company in XX/XY - the 60 pieces will include work by Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe and Georgia O'Keefe.  Not bad for an artist who's only 26." - Terry Godbey, November/December, 2010
