| Julia Clinger AOL CITY GUIDE BOSTON TOP PICK Tsunami Relief Benefit Local artists stage a benefit at Art Attack for victims of the tsunami. All proceeds from sales and performances will aid disaster relief efforts. For those staggered by the stories coming out of South Asia, there's an innovative outlet for empathy -- and charitable donations -- at tonight's Tsunami Relief Benefit. Marshaling the forces of area musicians, crafters and artists, Somerville's Art Attack hosts a multimedia soiree for those touched by the tragedy, which has claimed more than 150,000 lives and affected countless others. Art Attack is the fledgling venture of Philadelphian artist Heather Somershein, whose curatorial eclecticism is evident in its selection of fashion, fine arts, crafts, accessories and furniture. The gallery has quickly evolved into a salon for Somerville's diverse constituency of artists, many of whom will donate their performances and proceeds at this evening's bohemian benefit. Among those lending a hand will be clarinetist Todd Brunel, pianist David Maxwell, folk singer Guy Mendalo, graffiti artist Caleb "Sonik" Neelon, jewelry designer Amy Peterson (of Doodle Ink), Cubist painter Russell Freeland and photographer Jonathon Follett. -- |
