Luis Amer
Bustling Afternoon
Oil on canvas
21” x 26”
DE Fine Art Gallery is pleased to present the finest examples of representational painting, drawing, and sculpture in the Southeast.
This month we feature the works of Luis Amer who’s bold, fresh, and alluring colors hypnotize viewers and bring landscapes and scene paintings to another dimension. Amer’s style is often compared to the French Fauvists, including Matisse and Derain. However, one truly cannot call him a Fauvist as he has enhanced the style with detail and action, giving exuberance to his work.
Also on display will be works from our portfolio of European artists. ______________________________________________________________________________HAGEDORN FOUNDATION GALLERY

Mixed media on panel
40” x 40”
Located on a quiet little street in Atlanta’s Buckhead neighborhood, Huff Harrington Fine Art is a little oasis of art, carefully curated and displayed in a warm and cozy ranch house. Each of the gallery’s seven rambling rooms is a neutral backdrop for the gallery’s every-changing selection of representational, abstract and impressionist art. Owners Ann Huff and Meg Harrington work with a number of emerging and mid-career American and French artists who paint in a variety of styles and media.
On the walls Thursday, July 2nd: new work from Marti Somers. Imaginative, whimsical and beautifully composed, these large mixed media paintings on panel reveal layers upon layers – not just of paint and mixed media, but of connections, coincidences and contradictions. Also hanging: new work from Lorraine Christie, Onyeka Ibe, Angie Renfro, Melissa Payne Baker, Elise Morris, Jim Seitz and other gallery artists. ______________________________________________________________________________LAGERQUIST GALLERY

Curtis Ames
Serolith Reverie
Mixed media
48” x 36”
Lagerquist Gallery, Atlanta’s oldest gallery dealing in original fine art, is pleased to feature new work by one of the gallery’s new artists, Curtis Ames.
After receiving his B.F.A. from the University of Georgia in 2002, Curtis Ames worked as a multimedia artist creating paintings, sculptures, and installations exploring the evaluative process of identity. Much of the artist’s work is varied in style, media, and format. Throughout the painting process, layers are wiped away, etched, scratched, sanded, repainted, etc. until the artist arrives at an acceptable version of the inspiring experience. Imagery is simplified and the illusion of space is left vague and incomplete to allow viewers to create their own narratives based on their own personal experiences.
Curtis Ames’ work is in numerous private and corporate collections, and he has participated in several local public art opportunities, including Art in Freedom Park (2005). In addition, his work has been exhibited in numerous solo and group exhibitions in gallery both nationally and abroad, including the New Life Shop in Berlin, Germany.
Mr. Ames’ work can be seen during regular gallery hours and new work will be featured on First Thursday + Buckhead on July 2, 2009 from 6 – 9 PM. ______________________________________________________________________________Richard Harris

Using rich, warm toned color and fluid brush marks, this new exhibition of primarily smaller works smoothly transitions between an expressionistic approach to landscape and predominately abstract interpretations of the genre.
