6:30 pm - Art Opening and Reception

The exhibit opening in the gallery will feature three very talented artists: Dawn Lee , Janell O'Rourke and Michael Mahnke.

Wine and lite fare will be offered by Roots Restaurant of Sea Cliff during the art opening and reception starting at 6:30, and following the film screening.

Artist, Dawn Lee has lived and worked on Long Island since 1990. She is from Colorado where she received her BFA in printmaking, and moved to Brooklyn, New York to study painting at Pratt Institute of Art. Later she received her MFA in painting from Long Island University. Her paintings, prints, and drawings are inspired by nature. They have been exhibited nationally and throughout the New York area. Ms. Lee is also a professor and Chair of the Art Department at St. Joseph's College in Patchogue, an art curator, and director of the Omni Gallery in Uniondale, NY.

As an artist Dawn Lee is intrigued by the creation of two-dimensional imagery. Most of her artwork is derived at through techniques involving painting, drawing, and printmaking. The landscape imagery depicted in her art emerges from personal exploration and revelation. She therefore spends quite a bit of time on beaches, mountains, and rivers watching. Through creation she expresses a sense of her experience. The subjects in her images are based in the natural world and refer to the integrity of form within an environment.

Janell O'Rourke works with both observed and imagined imagery. Most of her work comes about intuitively through the process of painting and drawing. She often finds forms and gets ideas about the piece as it develops. As she works she reacts to what is unfolding on the canvas or paper, in this way the piece begins to reveal itself. In her work she wants to express what is beyond the visible, beyond the tangible, and enter into a transitory world where moments shape and surprise how we see.

Michael Mahnke received his BFA at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, and has been a visiting instructor at Hunter College in NYC from 1997 to the present. Mahnke is a three time award recipient of the Wolf Kahn, Emily Mason Full Fellowship at the Vermont Studio Center. He has also been awarded the 1994 Grand Prize in the 18th Annual Nation Arts Club Student Exhibition in NYC. His works have been exhibited from Stockholm, Sweden to Corpus Christi, TX to New York and many places in between including the 2006 "Summer Show," at Gallery 82 in Sea Cliff on Long Island.

The International Arts Movement (IAM) is a non-profit arts organization headquartered in NYC, whose mission is to gather artists and creative catalysts to wrestle with questions of art, faith and humanity in order to inspire the creative community to engage the culture that is, and create the world that ought to be. IAM believes the world is not as it ought to be... We long for meaningful existence and involvement in our culture - to make our world a better place and to be part of a story greater than ourselves. The world needs artists and visionaries to lead the way in seeing beyond the trivial to the transcendent, bringing synthesis to fragmentation and hope to despair. IAM is guided by the belief that the Judeo-Christian story of creation and restoration is one in which all humanity participates and the foundation by which humanity can flourish.
