Exhibit on Tour - Harold Garde: Painting 50 years!
Event Happens: Feb 22, 2012 - Jan 31, 2014
10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Tuesday - Saturday; 1- 4 p.m. Sunday. Museum of Florida Art, 600 North Woodland Boulevard, DeLand. As an outstanding painter, Harold Garde's roots go back to the abstract expressionist moment of the mid 20th century. These strong influences have helped create his current unique style as a figurative painter. His mediums include paintings, monotypes, and strappos which are a self-invented process of transferring dried acrylic paint from glass to paper or canvas. He moves from simplicity of form to intense psychological works with an effervescent wit. Harold Garde is a moving force in what every artistic community he finds himself and always emphasizes his belief in the personal and social necessity of art. The touring exhibition will provide even greater visibility for this significant Florida artist and for the Museum. www.MuseumOfFloridaArt.com (386) 734-4371 $5
