[Panels from the Scrambler series by Rosemarie Fiore]
Last Friday was gorgeous and a great opportunity to see some bright, dynamic, thought-provoking art.
Started at enoteca to see local artist Tammy Reynolds Citron’s show, “Reclaiming the Frame”. Vibrant photos of a tree, a reflection in water, and an Italian village were set behind a window and then the artist finished each scene up onto the grids and frame in acrylic. Your eyes bounced back and forth between the two media and between the dimensions of behind the glass and outside the window. It’s always interesting to see something 2-D painted on something 3-D like that. There were also dress forms made into showy lamps but I wasn’t into them as much.
