FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Announcing the next exhibit for Glass Growers Gallery:
“Requiem For the Peten” Watercolors by Jamie Borowicz May 2 to June 10. The public is invited to attend the artist’s reception, Friday May 2 from 7 to 9 pm at Glass Growers Gallery 10 East Fifth Street Erie, PA.
Jamie Borowicz earned his Ph. D. in Anthropology. His dissertation was titled “Images of Power and the Power of Images: Iconography of Stelae as an Indicator of Socio-Political Events in the Early Classic Maya Lowlands”. A significant concurrent component of his anthropological studies is the honing of his talent and dedication to creating fine art. Mr. Borowicz received his undergraduate degree in art education from Mercyhurst College. The two disciplines of art and anthropology are evident in the body of work he created for this exhibit. The watercolors in this exhibit assimilate and reinterpret images of Mesoamerican art and culture. Within each painting, Dr. Borowicz may shift planar reference, commingle various organic patterns, and use evocative tone and color.
“My intention is to recreate the sensation of standing in the middle of the jungle surrounded by complex sensory bombardment. The simultaneous clash of smells, sights, and sounds enveloped into my memory and ultimately into the art you will see in this exhibit.”
