Exhibit: "Part and Parcel" The story of D.C.'s art scene--and every other city's, for that matter--is one of constant openings and closings. Not just show openings and closings, which are part of the business, but gallery openings and closings, which are part of the larger business cycle. The strong survive, and the weak bemoan the lack of funding for the arts. As a meditation on the cost of doing business, Part and Parcel at The Fridge falls somewhere between the two frames of mind. "The expression 'part and parcel' is used to reference something that must be done or accepted as a part of something else," writes the curator. "Without the venue to sell works on a small scale, many artists wouldn´t have the means to create some of their more substantial works." Each display in the exhibit features two pieces of art. One of them is a large piece, and the other is a smaller piece wrapped like a parcel. Potential patrons can buy either one. If you opt for the mystery art, be warned: It stays where it is until the exhibit ends. To Dec. 10 at The Fridge, 516 1/2 8th St. SE. Web: thefridgedc.com
