FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


d berman gallery is pleased to present new work by Sandra Fiedorek and Naomi Schlinke.

Sandra Fiedorek's work consistently makes use of unique materials and processes, often for site-specific installations. Her current project is a series of portraits. About her work in general Fiedorek says, “I'm interested in allowing the viewer interpretive options." Her large mural can be seen above the baggage claim area at the Austin Airport. She is currently working on two large murals for the new Houston Intercontinental Airport Baggage Claim Hall.

Naomi Schlinke paints images caught between motion and stillness. In her new work she makes use of saturated colors and abstracted botanical forms suspended in space. Schlinke has exhibited in galleries in Houston and San Francisco, at the Dallas Visual Art Center and at the Contemporary Art Center of Fort Worth; and she was included in the Texas Fine Arts Association’s New American Talent 2001.

This exhibition opens on April 15, 2004 with a reception from 6 – 8 PM, and will continue through May 22, 2004. A gallery talk will be held at 1:00 PM on Saturday, May 1, 2004 (the first Saturday of the month*).
