New Show Opens Jan 5!
Come experience the work of three amazing artists from the
Hartford Art School.
Opening Reception is Thurs Jan 7th from 6-8 pm.
Lawrence Roy: American Beauty
"The 21st century is not even a decade old. Living in suburbia has many connotations depending on who occupies the residence. A home used to provide a sanctuary from life's demands in the past, allowing all kinds of freedom, it was called the American Dream. With blended families, divorce and health issues, the Hallmark idea of home is in transition..."
Jessica Rosario: Perception
"As a young girl I was intrigued yet afraid of many usual childhood toys, such as the dolls and clowns that my friends played with. Images of these characters haunted both my waking life and dream state, and have now worked their way into my art...My images contain a touch of realism, distortion, and an element of fantasy. My work is comprised of self-portraits. Each portrait is different from the other and provides a portal into each character's individuality."
David Barsalou:

"In May of 2002 my wife Terry was diagnosed with Stage 3 Ovarian Cancer. She fought bravely for two and a half years, passing away peacefully at home on October 18, 2004. My recent work layers photographs and digital cyanotypes with text. Through experimentation and manipulation these images are combined into larger visual constructions. Removing pictures from their original context, transforms, and re-invents them. The images focus on my wife from childhood to her passing in 2004."
This show runs from Jan 5 to Feb 5, 2010. Exhibit hours are Tues thru Fri from 11-2pm.
