Cynthia Gallagher "Studio Visit"
M55 Art
This event has ended.
Cynthia Gallagher’s work expresses her continual interest with the many contradictory sources from which her work is derived. The ongoing dance works to simultaneously unite and keep separate her interest in design, pattern and decoration as the source of the artists dialogue. Her visual conversation with the art of many cultures, notions of taste and formal structure represent the foundation of her working construct. The choice of materials for this exhibition: paper, paint, graphite, charcoal and oil pastel are essential to the language of strategy.
The artist has twice been the recipient of grants from the NEA and The New York State Council on the Arts. Her paintings, prints and drawings are in private, corporate and museum collections.
Ms.Gallagher has exhibited primarily in New York City and has shown her work in galleries and museums in the US. She has been internationally represented in Sweden, France and Venezuela.
She lives and works in New York City and currently holds the position of Assistant Professor in the Fine Arts Department at the Fashion Institute of Technology.
