![]() FOUR X NORTHWEST: Anne Grgich, Ree Brown, Tim Fowler, Gregory Blackstock "Four X Northwest" celebrates a quartet of Seattle self-taught artists. OPENING RECEPTION WITH THE ARTISTS: Thursday July 7, 2005 - 6pm-8pm OPEN DAILY: Wednesday thru Friday, 11am-530pm; Saturdays 11am-5pm CLOSING: Saturday July 30, 2005 WHERE: Garde Rail Gallery - 110 Third Avenue South - Tel.206.621.1055 Anne Grgich has been showing internationally since the late 1980's and is the best know "outsider" artist from our region. Her books and paintings are rich, dark, and dense, incorporating many layers of collage and paint. Ree Brown has also shown his work since the late 1980's. His delicate gauche and watercolor portraits on paper of people, "no one in particular", can be disarming, and equally as charming as his tiny cat "mug shots", and spindly birds. Wood carver Tim Fowler has also been exhibiting since the late 1980's and is featured regularly in shows at the American Visionary Art Museum (AVAM) in Baltimore. His sarcastic wood "cartoons" comment on everyday life, religion, and politics. Over the last few years, Tim has been working with masonry, tile and concrete, and we'll be exhibiting his statues for the first time. While Gregory Blackstock has only been exhibiting since last year, he has been creating his "catalogues" since the mid-1980's. Working with pen and marker on paper, his duotone depicted subjects range from insects to jails, jet planes to crayola boxes. Gregory is a tremendous discovery that the art field is very excited about. |
