We at Bryant Street Gallery In Palo Alto decided, we needed to blog ... and not just to announce current shows but to engage with the public about the work and all that it may possibly mean or suggest to you. WE want to know what you think! So don't be shy ... ask us.
Up now at the Bryant Street Galley is "WINTER" by local Bay Area artist Michael Buscemi ... The work is clean and crisp using india ink and collage with a snow like palette. Through to Jan 31st ...
I am always in search of the spontaneous forms that seem to spring from movement. I find myself always drawn to capture these forms as they emerge, caught in a moment of their evolution. I love the freedom of expression that occurs when a gesture made by me is translated through my brush to the surface I am working with.
This action demands a vigorous honesty that fills me with inspiration and appreciation for the process I am engaging in. When this works well, I am filled with an inner music, the beauty of something simple, yet complex appearing for the first time, being born out of no pre-conception.
