"Get Lost" at Artists' Gallery this November
beginning 11·11·11
"Get Lost"
featuring Beatrice Bork and Joe Kazimierczyk
Nov 11 - Dec 4, 2011
Opening reception: Saturday, November 12, 5-8pm
Landscape painter Joe Kazimierczyk and animal artist Beatrice Bork
invite you to "Get Lost" this November as they explore the outdoors
through their art. Get lost in a moment, in nature, in discovery - "Get
Lost" at Artists' Gallery.
Both artists do much of their work in nature. Kazimierczyk revels in the
peaceful scenery of New Jersey's farmsteads and back roads and
translates the experience with his talents as an oil painter. Bork's
love of birds and animals comes through in wonderfully detailed
watercolor paintings that place her subjects into artistic harmony with
their natural surroundings.

"We both literally do get lost in our work," says Kazimierczyk. "In the
search for and exploration of our subjects, and in the act of creating
our artwork."
"My interpretation of ‘Get Lost' is in the sense that you let go of the
everyday stresses and become one with where you are, tune in by tuning
out - really seeing what's right in front of you." says Bork. "Often that
leads to finding so much more about nature, and in turn, about
yourself."

"Losing yourself in Beatrice's or Joe's world is a wonderful way to
spend some time," said Gallery spokesperson Laurie Nicholson. "Theirs is
really soul-renewing work. I believe Joe's poetic landscapes might
actually have the power to lower your blood pressure, while Bea's
thoughtful portraits of animals reveal a wisdom and serenity that warms
the heart."
Please join us for an
opening reception on Saturday, November 12, from 5-8pm.
There will be a closing reception, "
Coffee and Conversation" on Sunday, December 4, 2-5pm
