Has the murderer been framed? In Ito Briones’ new solo exhibit, “A Murder in Bruges: Cast of Characters,” you can be sure they have been… but whodunit?
When he’s not working as physician-scientist, Dr. Ito Briones can be found oil painting or writing fiction. The August solo exhibit perfectly brings together Briones’ strengths in one exciting art-exhibit-turned-murder-mystery. Briones invites YOU to be the detective and solve the mysterious murder of The Tattoo-man. Keep reading for how to be entered to win one of Briones’ paintings.
The Setting: Bruges, Belgium.
The Victim: The Tattoo-man, a 35-year old male covered neck to thigh in tattoos, working as a professional a model for a local Bruges art school.
The Suspects: More than 20 characters – most of them with a possible motive to kill the Tattoo-man.
The Detectives: Inspectors Edward and Nicolas Luttwak.
The Clues: Autopsy report indicating the victim drowned, a baseball bat covered in blood matching the DNA of the victim, the Tattoo-man’s wrist watch stopped at 9:34, a ruby necklace, a blood-stained glove, a blood smeared violin.
View the exhibit through September 2, but make sure to place your guess for who the murder is before August 30.
