Event Description
The Sylvia White Gallery presents their latest exhibit "Brilliant Paintings & Amazing Ceramics" Guest Curated by Betty Ann Brown.
Opening Reception, Saturday, March 13, 4-7pm
Exhibit Runs: March 10- April 3 , 2010
Sylvia White Gallery is pleased to present "Brilliant Paintings & Amazing Ceramics" guest curated by Betty Ann Brown. This eclectic selection was created by a diverse group of Southern California artists: Craig Antrim, Holly Boruck, Jenny Calaba, Patsy Cox, Madden Harkness, Steve Horn, Linda King, Erika Lizee, Jim Morphesis, Michele Ogilvie, Milo Reice, Sandra Rowe, and Blandine Saint-Oyant. The artworks range from meditative abstractions to erotic flowers, from surreal clay and glass creatures to poetic reinterpretations of historically resonant subjects. The paintings and ceramics are connected by a shared sensual engagement with the materials and processes of art, whether paint or pencil or porcelain; pouring with abandon or drawing with precision. They direct us beyond this quotidian existence to the imaginative realms of spirit and fantasy.
Guest curator Betty Ann Brown is an art historian, critic, and curator. A professor of art history at California State University, Northridge, she has written books about women artists, Surrealism, and how artists are stereotyped in the mass media. Her last exhibition was at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art. Brown is currently working on a retrospective exhibition of the work of performance artist and painter John White.
