Who: Vernon Public Art Gallery


The Vernon Public Art Gallery welcomes Winfield-based artist Richard Suarez,
with an opening reception celebrating an exhibition of past and recent
works, which opens March 21st, 2013.

 

Suarez, a former Professor of Sculpture at the UBC Okanagan, will exhibit a
large body of drawings and paintings for the first time at the Vernon Public
Art Gallery. The exhibition quantumspaces, consists of three bodies of two
dimensional works: mixed media drawings on panels, pen and ink drawings on
paper, and a suite of ball point pen drawings on polystyrene. Based on the
juxtapositions of geometric elements over the volumetric renderings of
architectural and anthropomorphic structures, the exhibition's focus is on
drawing as the main means of artistic production. 

 

"We are excited to have Richard exhibit quantumspaces at the Vernon Public
Art Gallery. His background is extensive, everything from architectural
design to silversmithing as well as drawing and painting. His work has a
distinctive and recognizable style, something that can be enjoyed by all
audiences because the level of interpretation varies and it is aesthetically
pleasing at the same time." said Dauna Kennedy Grant, Executive Director,
Vernon Public Art Gallery.

 

quantumspaces will be on view at the Vernon Public Art Gallery from March 21
- May 23, 2013. Members and the public are invited to attend the opening
reception on Thursday March 21st, from 6-8pm, where the artist will be
present and open to questions about the exhibition.
