Organic Metropolis

A collaborative exhibition 

between a painter and a sculptor

May 6 - June 11, 2017

Artists' Talk 

Sunday, May 14, 2 - 3 PM

Buckner and Ike define their exhibit: "Think humans are overtaking nature? Think again! Nature finds its way back into the heart and soul of the city in "Organic Metropolis."

Yuko Ike addresses the concept of the organic metropolis with impressionistic cityscapes as serene and vibrant as the nature scapes of John Henry Twachtman and Patrick George. She seeks to capture a moment in the ever changing organic world.

Lucienne Buckner's work embodies the same concept but from an inside out point of view. She imagines nature's invasion of the objects typical of interior design and urban living with a surrealist flavor.

In addition, "Mix of Six", a periodic rotating exhibit of members' work, will be on exhibit in May in the LAA's Phillips Gallery. This exhibit will include pieces by LAA members Pierrette Wagner, Elizabeth Agresta, Claudio Altesor, Deborah Bohren,and Margot Bittenbender.
