Recent 20x200 edition-maker Scott Listfield, whose work will appear in a group show later this month at Jen Bekman Gallery, is included in icons + altars, a group benefit show opening TONIGHT (Friday) at the New Art Center in Newton, MA.

icons + altars features work by 106 regional artists who have created work specially for this exhibition + sale to benefit the New Art Center. Artists respond to the themes of "icons" + "altars" in many media including painting, drawing, photography, mixed media, ceramics, + sculpture.

Scott's painting, 7 Eleven (above), is instantly recognizable for its irreverent humor and juxtaposition of the surreal and banal. The painting, along with the other 105 pieces in the show, will be sold using a ticket system for $250 a piece. The money raised will benefit The Center's public arts education programs.

If you can't make it out to the opening tomorrow night, or to the show which runs through December 13th, you can still check out a selection of work from the show online.

Prints of Scott's edition Waiting Dangerously in Rio, are available from 20x200 in all sizes!
