RADNOR, Pa. (Feb. 1, 2011) — Cabrini College hosts “Bouquet Skyships,” a free exhibit of 17 oil paintings by abstract artist Dennis Bertram, Feb. 15 - March 31. A reception with the artist is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 24, 5‑7 p.m.
“Bouquet Skyships” explores the spontaneity, mysticism and beauty of life. These abstract concepts are represented through skyships that uniquely resemble a city skyline, flowers and structures breaking apart from one another.
Bertram has exhibited at Eastern Michigan University’s Ford Gallery, and in group shows at the Gallery One Visual Arts Center in Ellensburg, Wa., and with the Buffalo Society of Artists in the Castellani Art Museum in Lewiston, N.Y. He studied drawing and painting at Buffalo State College, Buffalo University and the Steve Carpenter Studio in Rochester, N.Y. He earned degrees in medicine and public health from Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, Mo., and Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md.
The exhibit and reception are in the Grace and Joseph Gorevin Fine Arts Gallery on the second floor of Cabrini’s Holy Spirit Library (610 King of Prussia Rd., Radnor). Admission is free. Gallery hours are Monday-Thursday, 8 a.m.–10 p.m.; Friday, 8 a.m.–8 p.m.; Saturday, 9 a.m.–4 p.m.; and Sunday, 1–10 p.m.
