Bent
Art Gallery Features Guest Artist Rachel Maxi
Bent
Art Gallery is pleased to announce nationally
renowned Seattle artist, Rachel
Maxi, will be showing work
alongside Michael Birawer through the month of July.
The exhibition opened for the 2011 Art-A-Whirl®.
Called “One of Seattle’s most important realists” by
the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, Rachel Maxi describes
her form of realism as “A
painter’s diary of the mundane. The magic moment
when light honors the most humble and empty constructs
of our environment.”
In a review of Ms. Maxi’s most recent show, “Oils
on Panel” at Seattle’s Gibson Gallery, The
Seattle Times wrote: “these oils on panel in
Maxi's hands, have a seductively warm visual appeal.”
Ms. Maxi, who has works in the Seattle Art Museum permanent
collection, will be exhibiting fine art prints of her
series, “Trucks” and “Pools”,
at the event.

2011 Saint
Paul Almanac Features Downtown
Saint Paul on Cover
Nationally
celebrated artist Michael Birawer’s fanciful
painting, “Downtown Saint Paul,” wraps
around the cover of the 2011 Saint Paul Almanac. Birawer’s
urban cityscapes reflect his interest in architecture
and the energy of urban communities: “Old buildings,
ornate details, decorative facades, and the bustling
of people and traffic are what make the most interesting
subjects to me and that is why I love to paint them,” said
the artist. He says of living and working in Saint
Paul that he’s impressed by its rich history
and “magnificent skyline.” Birawer feels
a strong connection to the city of his birth, adding, “Saint
Paul is a city I never feel lost in; it is always welcoming.”
