Hurry down to Arcadia Cafe in Old Greenwich where the current exhibit ends Friday. I am particularly taken by the art of Chile-born Michele Krauss and her use of color and texture and her manipulation of light.
If you miss it, her exhibit goes to the Silvermine Guild Arts Center in New Canaan starting Saturday through June 5.
Dear Mr.Lincoln:
Happy to read you like my work! For the same reason I use the opportunity to share with you that I’m the 3rd place winner at the prestigious Annual Competition of the Silvermine Guild Arts Center located in New Cannan.
“Art of the Northeast is one of the regions oldest exhibitions showcasing the richly diverse talent of work created in the Northeast,” says Gallery Director Jeffery Mueller.
Throughout its history, Art of the Northeast has been a platform for both established and emerging artist, many who have gone on to receive national acclaim. Jurors have included major critics, curators and directors from some of the most influential contemporary art institutions including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, MOMA, The New Museum of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum.
The juror, Mr. Douglas Dreishpoon, chief curator at the Albright –Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York (one of the nation’s oldest public arts organizations who’s commitment it’s to be one of the world’s best and most dynamic modern and contemporary art institutions)has worked in museums for more than twelve years as curator.
I had exhibited nationally and internationally and my works are at private collections worldwide.
The juried competition/exhibition opens on Friday, May 8th with an awards ceremony open to the public and will run through June 5th, 2009.
