Artists’ Reception
The Urban Landscape
The Lois & Richard England Gallery at Iona is proud to exhibit “The Urban Landscape” from September 14, 2019 – January 16, 2020. Our Gallery at Iona regularly features artworks by local, vibrant artists age 60+. It is a platform that showcases our mission in action, and inspires creativity, community building, and self-expression in older adults.
The seven artists in this exhibition have a lot to tell…stories, memories, imaginations, and experiences. They show a vision of the city or town that touched them deeply and uniquely. No doubt these artists excel in their craft.
Whether abstract or representational, two-dimensional or free-form, each individual artwork transports us into a place where the scent of air is imagined, colors are experienced, and the vibrancy or stillness of the locale serve to inspire. View flyer here.
