Compelled: Tanna Bellia & Bill Bishop

(510) 881-6735
Artists Reception: Saturday, March 24, 1:00-3:00pm. Assemblage, collage, oil on canvas and more. Both artists reside in the Bay area. Tanna Bellia is inspired by the art of the Bay Area figurative movement. The figurative movement emphasizes the figure, with a bold, improvisational color palette. Bellia says her work represents her desire to connect with the deepest levels of herself and "from that place that makes the unseen visible on canvas". Bill Bishop’s primary love has always been the single image. Bill’s work is informed by collage and assemblage—an aesthetic that creates something new out of existing, disparate objects—and by filmmaking, which is, essentially, obtaining and assembling the parts necessary to make an aesthetically coherent whole. www.adobegallery.org.
