Next month the Ricco/Marseca Gallery will be presenting Silhouette Vessels, an exhibition by Gallery Stock contributing artist Bastienne Schmidt.
Schmidt used polymer paints mixed with espresso coffee on paper to create this beautifully abstract thirty painting series which is based on images of ancient vases. The exhibition’s opening reception will be held on MAY 17th from 6-8PM and will run until June 16, 2012.
“Already acclaimed for her photography, Bastienne Schmidt’s recent paintings continue to reflect upon the themes of womanhood, female identity, and domesticity on both a deeply personal level and a broader cultural level.” – Richard J. Friswell, Editor, Artes Magazine
