2019 March 1 to April 30 Artist’s View Exhibition

Artist’s View is an exhibit displaying the work of artists coordinated by Mina Greco Hall. Their works cover a wide range of subject matter and each artist brings their personal viewpoint to this collection of surreal, abstract, and nostalgic representation of the world around us. After learning the basics, join the featured artists in their series of experiments with color, shape and form.

 

MINA GRECO HALL

          

“I began painting in my teens and studied in private schools in Taranto, the Italian port where I was born, soon having an exhibit in the Taras Gallery in that city. I participated next in Lipari, Sicily in 1956; in Rome in an international exhibit; and in various other Italian cities such as Termoli, Campobaso, Ligure, the Brera Gallery in Milan, etc.

“In the early 1960’s, I emigrated to the US and made Lansing, MI my home. Several newspapers and books in Italy and the US have carried pictures and my information. From Lansing I received a silver medal at the Cannes International Art Festival in France in 2005, and in the same year, the prestigious Szepmuvestzeti Museum in Budapest, Hungary, included me in an international exhibition. I also exhibited in the Louvre Art Museum, in Paris, in an international exhibit, in 2005.

“My autobiography entitled From Italy to America with Love, was published by Xlibris in 2012 revealing my life as a child in WWII in Taranto, Italy, as well as my artistic career there and in Michigan.”

Andrew Peterson: Gnosis

Andrew Peterson PosterAndrew Peterson: Gnosis
April 5-27, 2014
Opening Reception: April 6, 12-4pm

Andrew Peterson is an artist based out of Lansing, Michigan. Each piece in his Gnosis series has its own unique meaning and provides a multilevel viewing experience. There is an underlying theme of monism, of oneness, that carries through most of Andrew’s work. Some work is purely emotional expression, while others combine the philosophical and the spiritual. Andrew explores how often one looks solely at the big picture, missing the details. He forces the viewer to look deeper, staring into every detail, delving into the image, getting lost in it.

The image as a whole is made more powerful and meaningful by the small details, and the details are made more powerful by the overall image.

Andrew is influenced by everything he sees. He is influenced by artists Salvador Dali, H.R. Giger, and M.C. Esher.
