Gallery 4463, Acworth's preeminent art gallery, will be exploring Unknown Landscapes in May, as artists Gail Koornick and Suzanne Cooper Morris exhibit their work in a featured show.
Gail Koornick is an award-winning artist intrigued by "the world of structure that surrounds us all," be it natural or man-made. Her latest works represent pathways through the artistic process as well as roadways through a portion of her life. The texture of her work represents all the things one might want to reach out and touch in nature. Her goal is to have "the viewer wander along with [her] in [her] travels."
In contrast to Mrs. Koornick's "structured" approach, Suzanne Cooper Morris paints organically. The abstractions on her canvasses, inspired by natural asymmetry, leave the viewer to draw his or her own conclusions about when and where the stories take place. In her latest works, Mrs. Morris, an award-winning artist, has been incorporating found objects (wire, metal, rubber) into her nebulous landscapes, adding a striking industrialized texture.
The opening reception for Unknown Landscapes, featuring local didgeridoo player Tim Morris, is scheduled for Saturday, May 5th, from 6 - 9 pm at Gallery 4463.
