* Linnette Vázquez Polanco: The Reflection of the Soul (Fitchburg Art Museum)
 |
| LINNETTE VÁZQUEZ POLANCO: THE REFLECTION OF THE SOUL June 24 - September 4, 2016 Linnette Vázquez Polanco was the First Prize winner in last summer's 80th Annual Regional Exhibition of Art & Craft at FAM. She had just embarked on her artistic career in Puerto Rico when she moved to Fitchburg, Massachusetts where she now lives and works. The drawings in The Reflection of the Soul are rendered with such exacting realism that they almost appear to be photographs. They are not meant to be portraits of specific eyes, but are meditations on the emotive power of the human gaze even when entirely divorced from facial expression or body language. Polanco's images of eyes look directly into the real eyes of viewers, and are able to communicate powerful and nuanced feelings. This exhibition is generously sponsored by D'Ambrosio Eye Care. |
