TNT
was Audart's second exhibition and included artists and designers from
Toronto, New York and Tokyo. The show opened on April 18, 1996
with
thirteen artists and designers participating. During the month of May,
the paintings of New York artist, Janet Cristenfeld; the paintings and
illustrations
of New York artist, Geoffrey Moss and the paintings of Jacqui Taylor
Basker
were added to the exhibition.
One
of Audart's largest rooms was converted to "The Pink Cafe" for the
TNT
show, and mannequins wearing brightly colored raincoats by New York
designer, Maximino, lined the walls. Another New York designer, Tracey
Carpino,
designed two Spring coats, with matching umbrellas, including the
"corporate" raincoat with
pinstripes and button-down collar. Returning artists,
Kenta Furusho and Suzyo Saito joined Taro Ichihashi as the three Tokyo
representatives
in this exhibition. Artists Alice Burton, Barbara McGivern and
Elizabeth
Myles Elliott represented Toronto.
Renowned
New York "mixologist", Dale DeGroff, designed a special cocktail for
the
TNT reception, which was served in Audart's salon, throughout the
evening.
