"Apples and Oranges"
Featuring
Claudia Fouse Fountaine
and
Alan J. Klawans
June 10 - July 4
Alan Klawans and Claudia Fouse Fountaine will be showing their work
together at Artists' Gallery, and their images couldn't be more
different than apples and oranges. All the artwork was created during
Pandemic, and each artist responded quite differently to the situation.
ALAN - "My art is my visualization of the Covid 19 Pandemic from March
2020 to March 2021. It is abstract and I have used some of the same
shapes over and over again within the various compositions to indicate
that the virus was present for many months---and still is. The medium
for my pictures is inkjet printing and I have varied the color to
indicate my moods during the various months of the cycle that I have
chosen to portray."
CLAUDIA - "My art is basically a celebration, of light, of color...of
Life, really. As the Pandemic wore on I felt less and less like
celebrating anything. At one point I stopped painting altogether,
hopefully waiting for a glimmer of joie de vivre' to return. I tried
focusing on memories of beautiful places, Nature, animals, and just the
objects around me. Eventually I was able to scrape together enough
paintings and my old creative enthusiasm began to return. May I continue
on that path!"
