MODERNISM MONTH

By Rebecca Pikus

The annual Palm Springs Modernism Week which opens in February has become an international event — and once more proves that Palm Springs is an extraordinary Art Destination – it brings art lovers from all over the world.  This art form can be seen in paintings, sculptures, photography, architecture, fashion, & even literature.   Modernism really grew out of the changes & transformations in Western society in the late 19th and early 20th century, although “modern” Modernism is considered to be from the 1930s – 1970s.

In keeping with the many cultural events here in the Desert, Rebecca Fine Art Gallery presents “Modernism Months” from Feb. 6 – March 26.  An exciting lineup of Featured Artists includes Christina De Musee, Robert Reeves, Mauro Rosso, Federico Janni, David Bryant, & David Enock.  In addition, Guest Artists include:  Craig Zeigler, Greg Peterson, Jim Riche, Joe Novak, Mandy Main, Mario Pikus, Mark Peacock, Martins Cernecovs, Michel Bourquard, Paride Mirabilio, Sham Ibrahim, Sherri Breyer, Stephen Baumbach, The Henebrys, Tony Rizzo & William Dey.  You will see an exciting collection from these artists — painters, sculptors, photographers.

The Opening is Sat. Feb. 6, from 5-9pm.  Attendees will also be able to see 2 great dance performances by Simeon Den — one will be classical/jazz dance to “Bolero” in homage to Robert Reeves new 10-ft sculpture “Brekelle’s Bolero” and his traditional Japanese Butoh Dance.  The evening should be an amazing, not to be missed event!
