Popular artist S.V. Medaris returns to Madison Public Library's Second Floor Gallery on Madison Museum of Contemporary Art's Gallery Night, Oct. 5, this time showcasing the lives of pigs in her solo exhibit: "The Whole Hog." Using her own hogs as well as neighboring farmers' swine and 4-H event pigs as references, Sue's art of the swine includes oils, pastels, intaglio and mixed media both large and small (8ft. tall to 3" x 4"). The crowning glory will be the 10ft. x 18ft. acrylic painting of a giant boar hanging in the library's stairwell landing (a la "Big Tiny") aptly named "Some Pig."

There will be an opening reception with refreshments on Friday, Oct. 5, from 4:30-8:30 p.m.

DISPLAY: Madison Public Library, 201 W. Mifflin St. Runs October 5-30, 2007.
