The New Jersey Meadowlands Commission’s Flyway Gallery will host an exhibit
featuring oil works and sepia sketches by local artist Bobbi Brick
during June.
Bobbi is also known by her former and current married
names, Pagani and Cammarano. The exhibit, “Inside/Outside,” runs from Monday,
June 7, through Thursday, July 1. A
reception for the artist is scheduled for Sunday June 13 from noon until 2:30
p.m.
More images and more information follow.
Brick, a Ramsey resident and former longtime North Caldwell resident, said her observations of vistas,
valleys, landscapes and oceans are profoundly influenced by nature.
“As I paint
a portrait I peer inward and translate the subject’s emotions and feelings into
the final painting,” Brick said. “The form, direction of line shape and the
tonality of color palette are meant to evoke an emotional response from those
who view my work.”
Brick, who said she began painting at age 3, ran a
textile design studio for 40 years before returning to her first love, the fine
arts.
Her works have been displayed in numerous juried shows in New Jersey and galleries in New
Jersey and Massachusetts.
She has received several
honors, including the 2009 Jeanne Sasslow Award from the West Essex Art
Association and the 2008 First Prize for oils from the Bergenfield Arts Festival
Coalition.
The Flyway Gallery is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday
through Friday and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The gallery is located
at the Meadowlands Environment Center in Lyndhurst,
within DeKorte
Park, the home of the NJMC.
The park encompasses one-square mile of wetlands, nature trails and water views
– framed by the New York
City skyline – and is a great place for bird watching and
enjoying nature in general.
Directions to DeKorte Park are available in the left-hand column of this blog, or by calling
(201) 460-8300.
