Between Silver Light and Orange Shadow: Paintings by Elena Sisto

By UF Art Gallery

"The young women in Sisto's paintings are simultaneously interactive and introspective. They reach out to relate and also give us a chance to look within."--Amy Vigilante "There is a happy resonance in these paintings with Matisse, who loved to make a picture gallery out of the material picture plane "behind" a figure. And, of course, there is the resonance between the easels, brushes, postcards, and paints that surround these young women and the menacing, crepuscular studio attributes of a raging, aging Guston."--Stephen Westfall Between Silver Light and Orange Shadow , an exhibition of paintings by New York artist Elena Sisto, presents 28 paintings created over the past 10 years. The exhibition traveled to the Freedom Tower Gallery of Miami-Dade College, the University Gallery at the University of Florida, and to Lori Bookstein fire Art in the Chelsea Gallery District of New York City. Elena Sisto teaches painting and drawing at the School of Visual Arts in New York. She has been a visiting artist at various institutions, including Bard College, Brandeis University, Smith College, Wesleyan University, and Yale University.
