Something Beautiful
Exhibition Dates: February 2nd - March 17th
Opening Reception, February 2nd, 7pm
This exhibition by painter Jennifer Rosengarten brings light and beauty into the gallery with several oil paintings, all with a devotion to capture breath and to expose the light that is all around us. Jennifer graduated from Wright State University with a major in Fine Arts in 1989. She then attended the Vermont Studio School studying with Bernard Chaet and Wolf Kahn before heading to Boston University, with a full fellowship, to study painting. At BU she worked with John Walker, John Moore and Anne Harris. She completed her MFA in 1993, and upon graduating she was awarded the prestigious Esther B. Kahn Career Entry Award.
"For the past few years I have sought a lightness and ease in my work. There is more white in terms of negative space and actual white paint. I used to find the light by working it through the dark. Now I find the light first and try to keep air inside the dark.
I just want to make something beautiful."
