World Art - by Craig Hill



Michele Zalopany racism and economics collide in art

September 12th 2006 01:15
With September 11 just behind us I thought I'd focus on American Art over the next couple of days. Here's an interesting exhibition out of the US currently showing - 'the first solo show at Esso Gallery by American artist Michele Zalopany'.

An artist that I've folowed for a while Michele Zalopany is hell cool. Through her labor intensive pastel paintings, Michele Zalopany speaks of mysterious objects as a keen observer of the seemingly irresolvable problematic of the racial divide. Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, she bears witness to the disintegration of what was once the fulcrum of the American economy, as a result of the historic dilemma of institutional racism. Art has a strong, silent power of creating images that subvert the institutional language and each of Michele Zalopany's paintings add a new part to her grammar to make sense of the world.
