Kotler Gallery presents MicroMacro by John Gurbacs

Tuesday, April 30, 2024
John F. Germany
2 East

The Arnold and Louise Kotler Art Gallery located inside the John F. Germany Public Library is proud to present MicroMacro by John Gurbacs. Through his work, John endeavors to discover new interpretations (and ways of) seeing the world. Inspired by Buddhist mandala paintings, his works reflect geometry in nature. John’s creative process consists of observing the environment from both a manmade and natural perspective. From these observations, he creates collages some of which result in images on canvas. John’s canvas art consists of oils, while his outdoor murals consist of latex paint. He explores the balance between chaos and order in the natural world.

Join us for a reception on March 16th from 2 - 5 PM funded by the Friends of the John F. Germany Library.
