Tony Fitzpatrick: Recent Etchings
Davidson Galleries
Formerly a tattoo artist and semi-professional boxer, self-instructed Chicago artist Tony Fitzpatrick is considered a renegade in the contemporary art scene. His imagery is inspired by street life in Chicago, childhood encounters with Catholic icons, superheroes, industrialization and contemporary politics. Fitzpatrick's early artistic career focused primarily on printmaking, in more recent years he turned to large scale mixed media drawings, paintings and collages. This new body of etchings reflect his return to printmaking and his skill in creating small etchings with the precision of a needle on skin, revealing his personal vocabulary of enigmatic symbols. Fitzpatrick’s work can be found in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Art Institute of Chicago and many other public collections.

Cooper Edens Drager: Linearia
Davidson Galleries
Join Davidson Galleries as we reacquaint Seattle with a dear old friend. Acclaimed author, illustrator and painter, Cooper Edens Drager, especially noted and adored in the 1980's and 90's for his quirky children's books with playful color illustrations, now emerges from the studio with a different, yet familiar hand. Cooper Edens Drager began his writing and illustration career when coaxed by collectors that were stirred by his images and the narrative titles of his paintings. In this recent body of work, influenced by Paul Klee and Henri Matisse, and harkening back to his beginnings as a painter, expressionistic depictions of chairs, vases and airy fields of texture are explored. Images are rendered with Holbein oil sticks and gouache on paper to a dazzling effect, quite reminiscent of the breathy quality of the former illustrations for which Edens became so revered.

Lizt Alfonso Dance Cuba
Meany Hall for the Performing Arts- University of Washington Campus
"A performance style that blends ensemble perfectionism with strong individual expression, and a unique warmth and unforced sensuality." -Chicago Sun-Times

Like an expression of the melting-pot that is Cuban culture, Lizt Alfonso Dance Cuba combines elements of flamenco, ballet, and folk dance with Spanish and afro-Cuban rhythms. Director and choreographer, Lizt Alfonso, created the all-female company in October 1991 and was its principal dancer through 1998. It's been 10 years since we last had the opportunity to bring this critically-acclaimed troupe to Seattle, and we're thrilled to have them back.
