Art Seminars Thursday, October 27, 2016 - Art Seminar presented by Terryl Lawrence“Passing the Painter’s Torch” - The Wyeths Newell Convers - 1882 - 1945) Andrew Wyeth - 1917 - 2009) James Wyeth - July 1946 For nearly a century the Wyeth Dynasty has been a dominant presence in American art: N.C. was the foremost illustrator of his time who created visual images that brought enchanted tales to life; Andrew was primarily a realist who worked in a unique regional style; and James has a more public presence and has been witness to some of the most important moments of our time.The link that connects this extraordinary trio is far more than genes. Each man was driven by his own passion to find expression in his private world. They were aware of their heritage and the demands and rewards of belonging to this remarkably gifted family. What they shared was the ability to find their own uniqueness and the willingness to work enormously hard to achieve personal success. This lecture is filled with art, intrigue, and gossip. Time: 7:30 p.m. in the Imperial Room. Cost: $5 pp. No cancellations. Guests welcome.

Sunday, January 29, 2017 – Art Lecture presented by Artist Deborah Bigeleisen - Art Basel Miami / Art Miami & Satellite Art Fairs -an overview of the trends in the contemporary art market. This discussion is a wrap-up/summary of the trends and state of the contemporary art market based upon the art exhibited at the major Miami international art fairs that take place the first week of December every year. With the visual aid of a PowerPoint presentation highlighting the art, I turn the overwhelming chaos and confusion of over 30 venues into a cohesive presentation. My approach is very “down to earth.” It is from the perspective of a working professional artist and art consultant vs. that of a curator, art historian, or art journalist.Time: 3 p.m. in the Imperial Room. Cost: $5 pp. No cancellations. Guests welcome.

Thursday, March 30, 2017 - The "Art of Buying Art" presented by Artist Deborah Bigeleisen Do you buy art? Any kind of art? Do you know the value of what you are buying? Do you know the difference between a giclée and an archival pigment print? Do you know what defines “fine art?” This is an engaging and fun conversation about the multitude of questions to ask, and how to evaluate the answers, when buying original works of art or reproductions anywhere from auctions, to "fine art" galleries, to art on a cruise ship, to directly from an artist at an outdoor art fair or in their studio. You'll get the inside scoop on framing, on paintings coming in from Chinese factories, and the gimmicks dealers play with the art to entice the buyer. I have samples of all the types of art that will be covered in the discussion. Time: 7:30 p.m. in the Imperial Room. Cost: $5 pp. No cancellations. Guests welcome. A brief introduction to your speaker, Professional Artist - Deborah Bigeleisen: Deborah Bigeleisen is an internationally renowned artist whose paintings are sold through fine art galleries across the U.S. and at Contemporary and Fine Art Fairs. Her paintings are collected world-wide and are prominently included in private and corporate collections. Deborah is regarded as a master at her craft - with a vision rooted in the principles of fractals, and a technique rooted in the style of the Dutch master artists. Her paintings have been recognized with awards; have been accepted into numerous museum exhibitions - including the Boca Raton Museum of Art, the Platt/Bornstein Galleries at American Jewish University in Los Angeles, and the Williamsburg (Brooklyn, NY) Art and Historical Center. Deborah's work has been widely published in journals; and has graced the covers and inside pages of noteworthy art books and interior design magazines including Art & Antiques, Florida Design, and New Art International.
