In the month of April, DAAS Co-Op Art Gallery & Gifts is featuring a collection of pieces submitted by artists from Southwest Florida who responded to an invitation posted on the venue’s website. The exhibition, entitled Iconic, honors legendary icons in the entertainment and artistic industry, from all times.

The opening reception is scheduled for Friday, April 2 from 6 to 9:30 p.m. in conjunction with the monthly Fort Myers Art Walk. The exhibition will be on display through May 1.

Artists were challenged to turn their love for legends like Marilyn Monroe, Myles Davis, Elvis Presley, Rita Moreno, Maya Angelou, Madonna, Bob Marley, to name a few. Their creations incorporate imagery that clearly represent the icon, whether in portrait or suggestive.

DAAS Co-Op is a boutique style cooperative art gallery operating in the Butterfly Estates campus in Fort Myers. The member artists operate all aspects of the gallery, including administration, curation, sales and maintenance. The cooperative was established in 2016 and is one of the few art galleries of its kind in Southwest Florida.

Exhibition receptions are held every first Friday of the month, featuring individual and group displays. Artists interested in membership or exhibiting as guest artists should contact the gallery through daascoop.com or in person during business hours.

The gallery invites all Southwest Florida art collectors, supporters and enthusiasts to join them for the opening reception on April 2. DAAS Co-Op is located at 1815 Fowler St. in Fort Myers.

The gallery’s temporary business hours are Wednesday to Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. More information about the venue and how to become a member can be found at www.daascoop.com or by calling 239-590-8645.
