Grand Opening Reception: Wednesday, September 19, 2012 5:30 PM – 8:30 PM “Euphoria, as it relates to the human experience, can take many forms, evoking a multitude of emotions through stimulation of the senses.” -- Patrick Dintino Andrea Schwartz Gallery is pleased to announce a solo exhibition featuring new paintings and collages by Patrick Dintino. Through pulsations of color and pattern of imagery, Patrick Dintino expresses the notion of euphoria as it relates to the human experience. Intrigued by the individual’s response, Dintino explores these stimuli and how it expands the human spirit. He believes that through this experience of euphoria there is a heightened awareness of the connection between the inner self and the external forces of exhilaration. San Francisco artist Patrick Dintino received a B.A. from San Diego State University, and a B.F.A. and an M.F.A. from California College of Arts. In 2000, Dintino was invited as a guest artist to work with Sol LeWitt to create “Sol LeWitt: A Retrospective” at SFMOMA and received the prestigious Pollock/Krasner Foundation Grant in 2004. Patrick Dintino currently teaches at CCA. Andrea Schwartz Gallery was established in 1982 and is located in the South of Market district of San Francisco.
