Architecture Exhibit, Greenwood Lake

A longtime New Jersey resident, graphic and ink artist Bruce Young attended the Newark School of Fine and Industrial Art in the late sixties, concentrating on painting the human form in oils. For the past fifteen years, Young has been concentrating on pen and ink drawings of architecture.

Most recently, his focus has been directed to scenes of New York City, which he feels is “an endless source of vibrant subject matter.” He also works in pastel, graphite, oils and watercolor as well as airbrush art.

The Greenwood Lake Public Library welcomes back Bruce Young for the month of February. His black & white works were displayed in the Library’s Works of Art Gallery in 2019

& 2018.

Bring a friend and come and see them at the Greenwood Lake Public Library, 79 Waterstone Road, Greenwood Lake.

The Works of Art Gallery at the Greenwood Lake Public Library features a new local artist every month. If you are interested in showcasing your work, contact Adult Services at 845-4778377 ext. 111.

Artist, publisher and curator Robyn Almquist is the founder and creative director of ArtKill Catskill magazine, and is deeply involved with Catskill Art Space (CAS) through her work on the board, teaching CAS Kids, and as Interim Executive Director.

Almquist combines painting, collage, and printmaking to confront the intractable subjects of environmental destruction, gun violence, wealth disparity, political polarization, and power. According to the artist, “despite new technology and creative thinking, the current power structure ensures that solutions to these problems will not be found.” Almquist attempts to make a difference by creating a dialogue between those who value love and community and those who admire power and greed.

Allison Maletz, a contemporary mixedmedia artist, is a Professor of Drawing at Marymount Manhattan College and teaches watercolor and drawing classes online through 92nd Street Y, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and Lessonface. Her notable exhibition venues include the Liverpool Biennial, Zoo Art Italy, the Royal Watercolor Society in London, Brooklyn Botanical Garden, the National Arts Club, the Denny Gallery, Moscow Museum of Modern Art, Fresh Window, and the Florence Griswold Museum.
