Dear friends, artists and patrons, Frank and Dunya is happy to announce an exhibit of Tayana Brown's new work. In her solo show Tatyana Brown presents an original print collection depicting Seattle scenes, sensual figure compositions and charming capricious animals. One feels a sense of sweeping joy and ease examining black lines and shapes that transform into bodies, trees and animals. Tatyana reflects: "Nature, with its unbreakable connection to mankind's cycle of life, death and rebirth, physically excites and psychologically intrigues me and also provides the thematic basis of many of my works." Seattle became one the recurring themes in her drawings and prints. Native of St. Petersburg, Russia, she calls Seattle her home now. Wide range of printmaking methods makes this show particularly interesting. Tatyana's versatility stretches across many traditional printmaking techniques: etching, lithography, and silkscreen. She is an active member of Seattle Prints Art Association and the ArtsWest Artists Association. We cordially invite you to join us for the opening on the First Friday Art Walk in Fremont, September 3rd,2010 from 6 pm till 9 pm. The show will be on through the month of September. Hope to see you all, Peace Emiliya Image: Tatyana Brown "The Two" linocut "The Two"
Due to a network problem we couldn't announce our August show . Our apologies to the Artist. Despite that officially it's over , You still can catch on a "Faded Memories", a beautiful work by Alla Goniodsky. You can see all her work in the gallery at your convenience Her mixed media paintings emerge from theater sets and sketches to become an art form in their own right. Native of St. Petersburg, Russia, Alla was mesmerized by the architectural details appearing through rain and fog, snowflakes and frost, an atmosphere where it is difficult to separate dreams from daytime perception. So is her art – she mostly works at night on her original pieces – are a mix of the things remembered, figures fading into the soft nothingness of the background light. In artists own words, her "artwork starts to breathe, taking on a life of its own. I can then begin to feel it becomes dynamic, as its spirit reaches out to touch at least one person’s soul". Here is several pieces from "Faded Memories"
