$10,000

An inverted Eiffel Tower in place of the heel on a woman’s shoe. Drops of water strung on a needle and thread like beads. The moon suspended from a gong stand. These images, shot in evocative black and white, are just a few of the surreal, thought-provoking and rich photographs by Spanish artist Chema Madoz that are on display at Photographs Do Not Bend Gallery, 1202 Dragon St., Suite 103. Some are just strange, some radiate an unlikely beauty and some, such as a shot of a martini glass full of dark liquid strategically placed in front of a woman’s crotch, will make you snicker like Beavis and Butt-head. The solo exhibition is free to the public 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday through October 8. Call 214-969-1852 or visit pdnbgallery.com.

Tuesdays-Saturdays, 11 a.m.-6 p.m. Starts: Sept. 10. Continues through Oct. 8, 2011
