BY KIM COOL FEATURES EDITOR
Kicking off its 50th anniversary season, the Venice Art Center will present a show featuring the work of photographer Clyde Butcher, possibly the most famous artist in Venice. Friday evening, Nov. 7, Butcher’s daughter, Jackie Butcher Obendorf, will present a short documentary film about her famous father at the show’s opening reception. Obendorf came to Florida with her parents in 1979, starting her own business in 1987. Traveling the state, she became a self-taught retail marketing expert. Within eight years, she had added many tourist-friendly products to her original line of postcards, had more than 30 employees, warehouse space on Warfield Avenue in Venice and a tenant — her father. It was in that vast warehouse space that Butcher built and installed the first of several of the enlargers he uses to create his giant-size black- and-white photographs. Two years later, Obendorf sold her business to devote full time to the promotion of her father’s work. Today, Butcher is known throughout the world, and exhibitions of his work have been displayed in museums throughout the United States and Europe. Large, framed black-and-white photos grace the walls of the Above, a scene at Casey Key by Clyde Butcher. Venice Regional Medical Center and several other major buildings.

Each fall, he organizes swamp tours from his Big Cypress Gallery. Proceeds from the walks are donated to environmental causes. The artist will be available to sign books and other items the evening of his talk to benefit the art center. Admission is limited to 150 for the barbecue and swamp talk. At press time, fewer than 25 tickets remained. Call the center at 485-7136 for reservations.
Venerable VAC Few organizations have aged as gracefully as the Venice Art Center. Its first decade was rather nomadic for there was no permanent location until the group, then known as the Venice Art League, signed a $1-a-year deal with the city for the land at its present location on South Nokomis Avenue. The first building was a 5,000-square-foot box-like construction by retired architect Charles Mink. Please see ART, 2B
