Andrew Margolies Mezvinsky at G Fine Art

G FINE ART
September 1, 1-4pm
Labor Day weekend

If you are not out of town, than consider visiting the gallery on Saturday afternoon (the 1st) from 1-4.
Food and drink will be provided, as well as an opportunity to view the work of Andrew Margolies Mezvinsky
******************************************************************************
Mezvinsky’s work is created on fabrics that become sculptural, as folds create dramatic lines of light and shadow. The painted images on these multi-ethnic cloths are like pieces cut from unusual ecosystems, where absurd situations become real. They are places where hybrid beings thrive and call to mind genetic engineering.

The artist’s goal is to filter through and redefine the human form in his paintings. The physicality of the drape elements make is impossible to dismiss the works as windows to some imaginary space. They are real objects.

A graduate of the Glasgow School of Art, Mezvinsky is short listed for the Walker Contemporary Art Show at the Liverpool National Gallery in Liverpool, England. Most recently he was in the Peace Corps in Ghana where in addition to his duties, he created five “Glow in the Dark School” murals.
