(Utica, NY – June 2014) From July 3 to 29 the Utica Public Library will host “Linked by a Common Purpose in Art.” This 2-person exhibition will display the works of Maria Grazia Facchinetti and Maria Rizzo.
A reception will be held July 15 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Rizzo will give a brief presentation and Q&A at 6:30 p.m.
Facchinetti and Rizzo are established artists from Carnate, Italy. These women are linked by a lifelong friendship and a common purpose in art: creating resonant pieces of work that speak to our humanity.
Facchinetti uses a special resin of her own invention to enhance her abstract works.
Rizzo’s paintings depict trees as emotional self-portraits. Together their exhibition creates a combination of light, color and symbolism.
The Exhibit is free to the public. Call 735-2279 with any questions.
