Last Week to See Michal Zaborowski's "H20"
ne...@nevinkellygallery.com
Please stop in to see new paintings by this award winning Polish
artist. The exhibition, titled "H20" depicts ordinary people in
everyday activities associated with water. Gallery owner Nevin J.
Kelly describes Zaborowski as "a romantic impressionist with a
contemporary voice; Zaborowski is one of the most talented painters
working in Poland today." The artist's paintings depict what Kelly
calls the "nobility of the mundane." He paints ordinary people in
ordinary activities, but he gives them such heroic import that one is
compelled to look at them. He finds such beauty in these ordinary
events-a man and a dog in a boat, or a woman with a toy balloon - that
we wish we could trade places with them. The artist's palette is
subdued. There is a mixture of beauty and a gnawing sense of
melancholy in his paintings, a combination so common in our everyday
lives that we almost fail to notice it. Zaborowski reminds us that,
even in moments of personal darkness, a moment of sublime beauty is
just around the corner.
H2O will be on view in the gallery through November 11. Select images
of Zaborowski's paintings are available on the gallery's Web site:
