ARTISTIC DIALOGUES by FUSEDChicago Artists

Artistic Dialogues is meant to illustrate the expansive artistic possibilities the encaustic medium can have. Artists were asked to submit two pieces that speak to each other using two different encaustic techniques (e.g., painting, accretion, photo transfer, monotype, etc).  The result will be two-fold, a dialogue between the artist and the viewer and a dialogue between the two art pieces. The two pieces can be interpreted as standalone or a diptych. 

Opening Reception: Saturday, June 21, 6-9pm

FUSEDChicago is an organization of artists in the Midwest who share an interest in encaustic, a method of making art using pigmented wax fused to a surface by heat.

FUSEDChicago artists are painters, sculptors, printmakers, and photographers who bring contemporary sensibilities to their art and use modern technology in creating their work. Many members are inspired by the qualities of wax itself - the brilliance of its colors, its tactility and malleability, the luminescence of wax layers, and the textural possibilities of its surface.

PARTICIPATING ARTISTS: Helen Dannelly, Bob Fesser, Paula Hiller, Laura LaRue, Cindy Lesperance, Jane Michalski, Carol L. Myers, Michele Thrane, and Neli Tzintzeva.  

Come experience a dynamic & exciting group exhibition featuring new works from the esteemed FUSEDChicago Artists!
