andrew bucci

Originally from Vicksburg, Mississippi, Andrew Bucci's (1922-2014) paintings are deeply rooted in the themes of Abstract Expressionism. He employs color and line to create masterful abstractions of both figures and landscape. Drawn from his life experiences in the modern South, Bucci's work cannot be limited by one category of abstraction. His paintings are bursts of pure color and graceful lines; they are fresh, uplifting, and energetic.

Maurice Alvarado’s glass sculptures are elegant, meticulously crafted and evoke a sense of the spiritual. Although idealized versions of the human torso, his sculptures clearly embody a spiritual presence. Alvarado’s goal is “to capture, in clear and multi-colored glass, the essence of the human and angelic figures, inspired by dreams I’ve had and emotional impressions I have of people and events in my life.”
