From The Loft Artists Association:

The Fluid PalettePaintings by Lisa Cuscuna
March 19th - April 3rdOpening Reception Thursday, March 17th 6 - 8 PM

The Loft Artists Association is proud to present "The Fluid Palette" a retrospective of artwork created over the last 40 years by Lisa Cuscuna.

For Ms. Cuscuna the process of pouring thinned oil paint has been a part of her technique for the past 40 years. "Knowing when to inhibit or curtail the flow is essential and key to achieving a composition that is rhythmic and unfettered. Some colors are poured together but often one set of colors is left to dry before another set is applied, later to be enhanced with brushwork and palette knife," says Ms. Cuscuna during a recent interview.Lisa Cuscuna is a graduate of The Cooper Union School of Science and Art. A video artist and photographer for 25 years, her work is on display in various installations around the world including The American Museum of Natural History, The George H. W. Bush Presidential Library, the Petronas Discovery Center in Kuala Lumpur, and the International Olympic Committee Museum in Lausanne Switzerland. Her Oil paintings have been exhibited at the Loft Artists Gallery in Stamford CT, the "New Canaan Frame & Art Gallery", "Zorya Fine Arts Gallery" in Greenwich CT, the "Cate Charles Gallery" in Stonington CT, and "Rosenbaum Contemporary Gallery" in Boca Raton Florida.

Now in its 38th year, the Loft Artists Association is a non-profit organization dedicated to building connections within Fairfield County's visual arts community and introducing the general public to artists and their work. Their grassroots events attract thousands of visitors throughout the tri-state area and have been recognized by funding agencies, including the Connecticut Commission on the Arts, corporate and private sponsors, the City of Stamford and by visitors who return year after year.
