Exhibition Oil Paintings, Drawings & Sculpture

Reception Thursday, May 17th, 5-7p.m.

The noted Japanese artist Tazuko Fujii has been exhibiting her art for 60 years and yet the art she creates remains always in touch with both the spirits of these times and the spirits of the past. Her artistic career began with the study of KANA, the Japanese phonetic alphabet originating in China in the Kan Era. Tazuko Fujii has incorporated this beautifully executed form of brush writing into her drawings, paintings, collages and sculpture as well as in the artistry of her letters to friends and family.

May is the perfect month to see an exhibition of Tazuko Fujii's art for her work evokes the spiritual beauty of nature that Sakura or the cherry blossom symbolizes in Japan. The abstract imagery of Tazuko Fujii's fine... [ Read all ]

Oi Sawa
Exhibition
Oil Paintings on Tin and Drawings
Dates June 5- June 23, 2012
Reception Thursday, May 17th, 5-7p.m.
Chelsea, NYC: Viridian Artists is extremely proud to present the 12th solo exhibition of Oi Sawa in its new space at 548 W 28th Street. Her exhibition of "Oil Paintings on Tin and Drawings" extends from May 15th to June 2nd, with an opening reception Thursday, May 17th, 5-7p.m.

The noted Japanese artist Oi Sawa has made a unique choice of materials in her artmaking. For years she has created oil painting on tin and drawings on film and paper. Her images too are unique in that they transcend the influences of both Eastern & Western art, focusing on abstract structures in black, grey and silver that utilize architectural imaginings.

One senses an Escher�like vision combined with the influence of cubism in her complex rendering of space that create both a geometry of images as well as a sense of three dimensional structures. Originally inspired by reflections on a stovepipe in her studio decades ago, she uses tin with a signature approach that has intensified and matured over the years. The artist... [ Read all ]

Chelsea: Viridian Artists Inc. is pleased to present the exhibition “"Iris a la Warhol" by artist BERNICE FAEGENBURG. The show opens April 24th and continues through May 12, 2012. In celebration, a special reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, April 28th, 3:00-6:00pm.
A graduate of the Tyler School of Fine Arts of Temple University, Bernice Faegenburg is an artist committed to experimentation and incorporation, constantly learning new creative skills that include egg tempera, Japanese brush painting, photo transferring and a variety of methods of printmaking. Her most recent addition is digital photography printed on canvas which she then alters by hand.
In addition to being fascinated with process, Faegenburg's art evolves out of her travels & life experiences. This predominately new body of work is informed both by Warhol's silkscreens and the skies of Puerto Rico. In a recent trip there, the artist found herself enthralled by the constantly changing skies and cloud formations, returning w... [ Read all ]
