FIGURES & FORMS;
‘A Figurative Mixed Medium Exhibit At Albertini Arts’

WHO:
Albertini Arts presents a group show featuring Miami based artists:
Joseph Fischer, Fernando Ganas, Melissa Markowitz, Craig Morris,
Rachael Rendon, Rob Robi, Tony Rosca & Kris Steffner.

WHAT:
Curated by resident artist Kris Steffner the exhibition features various interpretations of the human form in an assortment of mediums and styles. Works range from more classical figurative to edgy sketchy pop pieces. While some focus on beauty, others are an obvious commentary on our culture’s obsession with it.

There are many striking images by this group of talented and creative artists; such as a collection of nude photographs depicting highly developed physiques, a series of graffiti style paintings with figures composed of geometric and free formed shapes, and some very intriguing mixed medium ceramic sculptures.

Albertini Arts are active participants in The ‘Wynwood Art District Second Saturday Gallery Walk’ hosting monthly cocktail receptions allowing patrons an opportunity to mingle with the artists & discuss the featured works. “Our primary goal as a gallery is to bring art to the public and make it more a part of daily life and I plan to surprise patrons with a series of future events such as live painting, poetry readings, live music, art dinners and much much more” states curator and resident artist Kris Steffner.

WHEN:
Artist reception with refreshments & hors d’ouvres from 7pm – 11 pm Saturday / March 8th 2008

On view: March 8th – April 5th from 11am – 5pm Tuesday through Friday and 12 noon – 7pm on Saturdays.

WHERE:
Albertini Arts is located at 190 NW 36 Street in ‘The Wynwood Art District’ just south of ‘The Miami Design District’ and 2-blocks west of ‘The Midtown Mall’.
