Journey to far away places and distant lands. Encounter a spirited few in the new exhibit, Distant Faces and Places at Riverdale’s only contemporary Art Gallery, Elisa Contemporary Art.
Our current exhibit explores abstracted landscapes and figurative work in paintings and sculptures. It is an invitation to escape into the worlds of our four artists and find a place to call your own.
From the art of Syracuse artist, Sharon Gordon, whose landscapes balance delicately on the fine line between abstraction and representation to the intensely pigmented exotic worlds of Canadian Artist, Marie Danielle Leblanc.
In the haunting paintings of Hawaii artist Connie Firestone, you'll sense a watchful presence and be captivated by the body and shadows of the wire mesh sculptures of Kaya Deckelbaum.
These four female artists create visions of alternate spaces and places to explore.

Thank you for sharing this info. Sounds like a good way to relieve cabin fever.
"Ars longa, vita brevis"!
My friend, if you seriously think this is porn I think you have some issues you need to deal with. There is nothing pornographic about this photo or the scuplture.

You may know about the Greek religion, but you're no descendant of Homer or Sophocles or Aeschylus or even Kazantzakis.
WOW - This comment goes straight for the heart.
"You may know about the Greek religion, but you're no descendant of Homer or Sophocles or Aeschylus or even Kazantzakis."
Please let me know what offended you so much to make such a statement. And by the way I love Kazantzakis.

You miss the point each time.
Wow! What happened to the "BOOBIE Downer" comments?
Is the blog now censuring comments it disagrees with (i.e. doesn't understand)?
This is ridiculous. I will not read this anymore. What an absolute abortion of a blog this is now. I cannot believe you are deleting comments. A slippery dangerous road you've taken, sir.
Get out of the blog business, Greg. You are a disgrace to the Bronx!
By deleting comments you don't like but leaving your defensive replies, what's left is pure nonsense.
Your 1/31/11, 2:39p.m. comment "if you seriously think this is porn" comes after a comment thanking you for posting the art show info. Makes you look like a complete idiot. When did "Thank you" become porn?
Too much ouzo, Greg???
