"Knots"
(A Social Commentary) Through the work of Gadi Zamir To meet Zamir
is to experience a warm smile, a kind word, and a soothing voice. To experience his artwork, is to surrender one's blind
eye to issues societies face the world over. As jarring as the meanings behind his work may be, Zamir creates beautifully
intricate art from recycled wood using stain and wood-burning techniques, also incorporating found objects. However,
his ultimate belief is good will triumph over the evils in the world. Zamir was born and raised in Israel, and has been
living in Cleveland since 1999. "My
art has become a manifestation of my inner fears, love and thoughts appearing right there [in the wood grain] before my eyes." The opening night for Gadi Zamir's art exhibit will be Friday, August 13 from 6pm-9pm. The evening will
include refreshments, a chance to meet several of the artists on display at The O, and live music. The show ill run until
September 18. So come out and share, it's good to have an opinion at The O!
Instincts, The O Gallery's current show will run through
the end of July. Natalya Romanovsky is the featured artist. Natalya sees beauty in the world and sets out to capture
through paintings that stress harmony between color and form. "Art should always have a little mystery in it,"
she states. There is a mysterious and intriguing ambience exists in her paintings. Phantasmagorically, it leaves the
viewer to find a simple meaning of life in each work.
