Art of Business at Laguna Gloria
Business and art have always learned from each other. Creativity is creativity after all. And both human activities require it.
Sara Patuel and Victoria Osborne
The Art of Business yokes the two by displaying and auctioning works of art by executives from Austin companies, profit and nonprofit. Proceeds go to the Austin Museum of Art and the HBMG Foundation, which, not coincidentally, promotes creativity.

The late afternoon light softened and refracted around the ancient villa at Laguna Gloria on Thursday. While MoPac and the Blue Suburbans played outside, easels on the ground floor held paintings, photographs and other works of art by the likes of Sloan Foster (HBMG, Inc.), Victoria Osborne (Tapestry) and Zvi Yaniv (Applied Nanotech).

I didn’t stay late, but I shared some choice conversations with folks, such as playwright Kirk Lynn, just returned from triumph with “Method Gun” at the Humana Festival in Louisville, Ky., and other kind souls.
Dale and Natalie Glover
