FAB Gallery is pleased to host an exhibition by artist Karen Ann Myers. The exhibition will be on view September 22nd – October 22nd. Please join us for this exciting event!
Posing Beauty is an exhibition of large-scale oil paintings exploring the experiences of women in a media saturated world. Lush colors and textures surround figures ripped from contemporary culture and personal experience. Karen says she is, “inspired by the cult of beauty in contemporary mass media, and exploring how this world affects my central female figures. By highlighting the dualities of confident but confused women and flat but somewhat three-dimensional compositions, I strive to present a personal yet universal depiction of the world of women.”
