In the Small Works Room
Sept. 17, - Oct. 8, 1998

Walter Wickiser Gallery is proud to present a series of new paintings by a Japanese artist Masae Uezumi at the Small Works Room.

Uezumi's recent oil paintings are about the gentle, quite and peaceful side of busy Manhattan cityscapes, such as the trees in the Central Park, or windows from an antique building in the Greenwich Village. Her approach to the scenery is rather subtle than intensive that transforms from direct visual experience to her own personal experience, a world with its own specific colors that are different from the actual reality.

Uezumi had worked in many different places including Paris, Spain, Portugal and the United States. She had numerous exhibitions in New York and different parts of Japan, including Kobe, Osaka, Ashiya and Osaka.
