Abstract Art Blog: Upcoming Exhibit in June

Bipolar Dementia Art Chronicles

"I just finished your book; it was compelling and so emotional and candid. I resonated with so many things, from large to small, and thank you for being so honest." --Nancy M. If you are interested in the life of an artist, issues of depression and bipolar disorder, or the challenges of caregiving for elderly parents, I think you will find this book a moving account of one woman's experience with all three.

You are invited to view my art this June in a 3-person exhibit, The New Abstraction, at Hopper House Art Center in Nyack, New York. I'll be showing with Hilda Epner and A. Lebowski, and we will be discussing our work and philosophy during the reception on Sunday, June 3rd, from 2 to 5 pm.

It's hard to plan a show when you haven't seen the exhibit space. I am planning to bring as many paintings as I can fit into my Honda Element (after taking out the back seats), so that I will have enough to choose from when we hang the show on Friday. Nyack is a 4-5 hour drive, so Adrian and I will leave on Thursday and stay through Sunday's reception.

I want to include my latest work in this show, and to focus on the red/orange/greens. These are some of my favorite colors, but they are sometimes hard to photograph, so they look best "live" rather than on a computer screen. Here are a few I will bring:
