Aarhus gallery is excited to exhibit the lively color work of the talented Blue Hill artist Heidi Daub September 2-21. The public is invited to an opening reception on Friday September 5th from 5-8pm.

With a personal vivid style and recognizable imagery, Heidi's modernistic landscapes play along the border of abstract art paintings and representational painting.

"I am concerned with ordinary things and the extraordinary ways in which the ordinary shapes our lives. My paintings evolve from an introspection,... an awareness,... There is an aspiration to a holy moment so to speak. How we perceive and feel, the nebulous space between the physical reality of a given situation, person or place, and the perceptions we carry, the curiosity and non-linear ways of looking at time."

Heidi Daub graduated from Montserrat School of Visual Art, has lived and worked in Maine since 1984 and exhibited her paintings widely throughout New England since 1987. Heidi is represented by galleries throughout New England and her work is housed nationally in many private collections.

In 2008, Heidi has inaugurated the Women of Maine Visionary Arts Award to support women involved in audio, visual or literary arts who exhibit outstanding commitment and are inspiring to others.

The work of Aarhusians Kevin Johnson, Mark Kelly, Annadeene Konesni, Richard Mann, Wesley Reddick and Willy Reddick will also be on view.

Remember to come to town, relax and enjoy the evening with the extended gallery hours of the Belfast Friday night Art Walk.

?arhus Gallery is located at 50 Main St. Belfast, and open daily 10am-6pm. For more information and a slideshow of the current exhibit visit www.aarhusgallery.com or call 338-0001.
