CHROMA ART EXHIBITION Property of Light

Curated by Debbie Dickinson - JULY 6 – AUGUST 3, 2023

Artists Bring Light to Foster Care Children

Let there be light by sending kids to camp. Ten artists collaborate to enrich the lives of children in the foster care system with a new exhibition benefit. The Felix Organization, founded by Emmyaward winning casting director Sheila Jaffee, and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Darryl McDaniels AKA DMC will shine at Chroma: Property of Light Exhibition. Featuring the best of ten contemporary artists and curated by gallery owner/supermodel/actor, Debbie Dickinson in alliance with Myra Scheer of SiriusXM, “Chroma” will debut at Calligaris Chelsea from July 6th until the 3rd of August. Dickinson was inspired to exhibit a group of working artists who use their imagination, memories and observations from real life while realizing their interpretations of color. Featuring bold figurative and abstract pieces that use one base color and highlight other hues to enhance their inventiveness, “Chroma” has to do with light, how it enriches and changes color and, ultimately, our lives.

CHROMA: Property of Light emerges. To showcase this integration, the show will feature the return of Bryan LeBoeuf, Bill Buchman, Evan Sebastian Lagache, Geraldo Perez, Iran Issa Khan and introduce Byron Keith Byrd, Eva B. Gorson, Mary Reid, Matt Stock, and Tatiana Lisovskaya.

Proud Supporters of The Felix Organization: A portion of the proceeds from Dickinson Gallery art purchases will benefit children in the foster care system.

Exhibition Artists

BRYAN LEBOEUF – Born on the Gulf Coast in rural Louisiana before moving to Colorado where he earned a BFA at Fort Lewis College. After moving to New York City in 1998, he received a Master’s degree from the New York Academy of Art in 2000. Since his first solo show in New York City in 2003, his work has exhibited throughout the United States and as far as the Beirut Art Fair in Lebanon, and the U.S. Embassy in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Since 2008 and his first museum show at the Morris Museum in Augusta, Georgia, other public collections which have acquired his work include The Forbes Collection, The Flint Institute of Art, as well as the Princeton University Art Museum. He models, positions and crops his figures to construct the impression of unseen space; viewers must imagine why a figure gazes beyond the edges of the canvas. Although his technique and subject matter may appear traditional, his art implies modern psychological and social themes. He is a painter whose work focuses on illusion driven by narratives, which often aim to ultimately remain open-ended.
