Through The Years... People from Many Places

"My show will include images of people I have seen when traveling or living in other countries. My work reflects my journey as an artist. Exploration of various techniques and mediums has helped me expand and improve on my skills. Acrylic is my primary medium. I like to experiment with color, paint application, and adding collage for texture. I have always found people interesting and loved the variety that is found in the many cultures around the world."

Temple of Zone
|
New Zone Gallery will erect the “Temple of Zone”. An art of shelter that is more than providing shelter from the physical elements. It is about providing a shelter for ideas, and beauty, by allowing the philosophy of individuals to be expressed in a sheltered space, protected from the criticism of others will be completed and erected in time for the opening of the
“Salon des Refusés”. |

New Zone Gallery is back again this year at the Whiteaker Block Party by organizing a Community Painting Project. It is a free public painting event. In 2019 we will have (2) 5’ x 8’ and (1) 4’ x 8’ canvas for the public to freely express themselves in the visual arts. Acrylic paint, brushes, sponges, oil crayons, markers, commercial and handmade stencils, and acrylic graffiti spray paint. And a large custom made easel to support the canvases while painting. All ages are encouraged to participate on these large canvases. New Zone's Steve La Riccia will be on hand to stamp out dog tags on his "Oppenheimer's Enigma" machine. The Project went extremely well last year with lots of public participation and words of appreciation. The final paintings were exhibited in the Eugene Main Library for a month in April 2019 for all to enjoy. Just as 2018, we will be located on Van Buren between 2nd & 3rd Av. In front of 245 Van Buren. Come join us Saturday Aug 3, 2019 12pm - 8pm for this fun social art experiment!
