A Daughter's Heartfelt Gift for Mother's Day
Artist Karen I. Hirsch is giving a posthumous gift to her mother this Mother's Day. This is the first Mother's Day she is spending without her mom, Anita Hirsch, who passed away in October. Anita was also an artist. She attended art classes at a local community college into well into her '80s. As far as artistic sensibility – like mother, like daughter. Karen's colorful digital abstracts parallel her mother's brightly hued paintings. Karen is dedicating her this art exhibit to her.
Chicago, IL, May 05, 2013 --(PR.com)-- The Millennium Fine Art Gallery will be presenting the fine artwork of artist Karen I. Hirsch in a show titled “Shape, Rattle & Roll” running from May 3, 2013 through May 31, 2013. The opening reception will take place on May 10 at 5:00 PM - 8:00 PM. The gallery is located at 8 South Michigan Avenue, Suite 2103 in Chicago, IL.
"Shape, Rattle & Roll," is an exhibition of contemporary artwork with the common denominator of form, and texture. Color is another important element for much of this work. The images originate from photography and from digital art. The pictures, whether made in camera or in computer, exhibit balance in composition, yet simultaneously give a sense of movement. The abstracts are musical in the way they flow.
