POISE, POSTURE AND PROFANITY @ Artchitecture



Exhibition: POISE, POSTURE AND PROFANITY

An exhibition by Andrea Heimer and Arabella Proffer

April 24 - May 17, 2009
Opening reception 7-10 pm Friday, April 24, 2009


"Poise, Posture, and Profanity" is a dual exhibit featuring the works of Arabella Proffer and Andrea Heimer. Despite their different styles and technique, both artists share a love of portraiture with loose references to history and pop culture. Their common themes of feminine power, fashion, beauty and design can at times even contain a hint of the sinister. Arabella will be debuting a new series of her fashionable punk and gothic aristocrats, this time consisting of miniatures. Andrea will be exhibiting recent works from her "Voyeur" and "Pulp" series; voyeuristic watercolors painted from the perspective of a camera lens aimed at her subjects and bright, dramatic acrylics of red-lipped women inspired by the pages of romance comics.
