David D’Alessandris
In-Town Gallery presents Threads, a presentation of artwork by mixed-media artist David D’Alessandris. In images that are by turns playful and intriguing, Mr. D’Alessandris infuses line, color-- and yes, actual thread-- with dancelike movement. Threads will be on display until June 30, with an opening reception on June 6 from 5-8 p.m.
Review for Threads:
In his show, Threads, Mr. D’Alessandris’s images swirl with life, displaying a mastery of color and a complex sense of design. “Being an artist,” said Mr. D’Alessandris, “is a passion. It is a way of life that requires discipline and a commitment to creating. I work daily at my craft, driven by a fascination with color, texture, and depth of field. There is always a new idea waiting to be explored, and a challenging path to take.”
Mr. D’Alessandris earned his BFA at Indiana University of Pennsylvania and did postgraduate studies at Carnegie Mellon University. During a 30-year career in creative product development, his design work received numerous awards. He has also had many solo exhibitions of his fine art. His prize-winning paintings, prints, drawings, and decorative arts are in numerous corporate and private collections.
Showcasing the work of local artists, In-Town Gallery is located ‘Between the Bridges’ on Chattanooga’s North Shore at 26A Frazier Ave.
