Opening Reception will be held on Saturday, March 9th. About the Artists: Anna Casser (1943- ) Born in Verona, Italy, Anna Caser was educated at the Fine Arts School in Genoa, Italy. Her works can be seen in Italy, Europe, UAE, USA and Canada at important private and public collections. Inspired by Paul Klee, Caser covers her canvasses in loose washes of intense color on a ground of Venetian plaster made from marble dust obtained from local Italian quarries. Over these abstractions, Caser inscribes sketchy playful drawings through the paint and stucco. Willy Heeks, born in 1951, has gained a national reputation, exhibiting in New York, Los Angeles, and throughout the United States. He received his BFA from the University of Rhode Island in Kingston in 1973, attended the Whitney Museum of American Art Independent Study Program that same year and in 1977 he received his MFA from the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia, PA. His work has been acquired by the Peabody-in-Essex Museum (Salem, MA), Museum of Contemporary Art, (Detroit, MI), and the Cleveland Museum of Art (Cleveland, OH). His work is also in the collections of the Portland Art Museum (Portland, OR), Brooklyn Museum of Art (New York, NY), Corcoran Gallery of Art (Washington, DC), Museum of Modern Art (New York, NY) and San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (San Francisco, CA).
