Return to Nature: New Paintings by Michael Abrams

EMILY AMY GALLERY is pleased to present our second exhibition of the 2010 season, "Return to Nature: New Paintings by Michael Abrams." Growing up in Rensselear County in upstate New York would eventually have a profound influence on Michael Abrams’ artistic career, although he was not aware of it then. The views out his childhood bedroom window of the Hudson River Valley became deeply engrained in his subconscious and have since become the predominant subject of his work. The landscapes are loosely based on these Hudson River Valley vistas he remembers but are also partially fabricated in his imagination. The combination makes for atmospheric, luminescent and ethereal paintings created from layering glazes from semi-transparent to opaque. The result is a beautifully rendered edenic nature of Abrams’ own personal invention. City/State: Atlanta, Georgia. Art Gallery: Emily Amy Gallery. Artist: Michael Abrams. Contact Number: (404) 877-5626. Friday, March 26, 2010, 7:00 PM – 10:00 PM. 1000 Marietta Street, Suite 208 Atlanta, GA 30318.
