Landscape, Nature and Space
Reception: Friday, February 22, 6-8pm Bucheon is pleased to present a group show of artists who explore imagery from nature, as a way of finding something new to communicate visually. The show will open Friday February 22, 2008 with a reception for the artists from 6–8pm and run though March 22, 2008. Margaret Wall-Romana often starts her large scale oil paintings by referring to a simple flower or a lifeless bird to take her off into an adventure with her work. Eckhard Etzold photographs displays in natural history museums, and airbrushes the image using the possible distortion of the photograph with the color or perspective to his advantage for his art. Chicago based artist Mary Lou Zelazny literally pieces her ideas together by creating exquisitely detailed collage which she has mastered over the years and accomplishes a complete and surprising vision. Minneapolis painter Gregory Euclides composes what appears to be traditional, and romantic landscapes and pushes the image by crumbling and contorting the paper. They take on a well crafted sculptural appearance along with the elements of the formal landscape. We’re excited about this show to bring todays artists working on a universal theme that can become challenging during any period of time. Other artists invited so far include: Lucho Pozo, Cynthia Hooper, Kirk LeClaire, Ian Kimmerly
