Eleanor Gilpatrick

HERE AND THERE

Opening Reception: Wednesday, November 6th, 6-9pm

 

Eleanor Gilpatrick's paintings are beautifully executed, sophisticated works of contemporary realism. An accomplished colorist, she has her own take on content and subject matter; above all, her intense energy shows through.

Despite commercial pressures, Gilpatrick refuses to make reproductions of her work, a policy greatly appreciated by her collectors. Here are works for the home, the office, or for display in other settings. Gilpatrick offers a varied portfolio of landscapes of the United States, Norway, Bulgaria, Italy, Spain, and her home in New York City, as well as nebulae, still lifes, and portraits.

People concerned about the human face of war will want to see her "In The World" series, which contrasts images based on press photos of Iraq and Afghanistan with her own American scenes.
