Abstract landscapes
Regina Tumasella was born amidst the soft grandeur of New York’s Catskill Mountains and has always been attuned to the natural world. A MICA graduate whose paintings were featured in a recent New York Times profile of the Baltimore art scene (https://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2010/09/23/travel/20100926-SURFACING-2.html) her paintings clearly recall landscapes while remaining almost wholly abstract.

European creativity and American experience
Are people really seeking to understand the artist himself - the who, the how, and the why? Do they want to connect with the way an artist perceives and interprets reality and thus creates a new reality. What if their questioning is not as much with regard to the result but the reason of creation?
I have no intention giving any explanations to specific pieces of mine but feel that it might be noteworthy to explain the way I call them to life.
At the art academy of Trier, a college lecturer almost disbelieved my facing an empty canvas and not having a vision of what I intend to paint, until he saw and encouraged my working process. What he did want me to do though is work in series for the benefice of evolution.

Quelque Part dans le Monde
Three Swans
Sarah Morris (b. 1967 –London). Morris has been internationally recognized for her complex paintedabstractions and films, which are derived from the close observation of thearchitecture and psychology of urban environments. In her paintings she uses colorsand geometries that she associates with a city’s unique aesthetic vocabularyand palette, as well as its character and energy. Her main interest has beenreserved for major cities and the industries, activities and behavior therein.As a result of their particular cultural, commercial, and political conditions,the cities’ appearances differ markedly, and she treats each as aself-referential system. The artist creates a montage of scenes from everydaylife, distinctive architectural features and media images that reflect theofficial image of each city, and arranges them in a rhythmically editedsequence.
