Studio 55 featuring paintings by Nathaniel K. Gibbs (Harford Road, Hamilton)

Studio 55 Presents Solo Art Exhibition

Works by Nathaniel K. Gibbs

Studio 55
5529 Harford Road, Baltimore, 21214
410-444-0022

Studio 55 - Art Gallery is pleased to presents a solo art exhibition of oil paintings by well-known Baltimore artist, Nathaniel K. Gibbs. The exhibition will continue through the month of May and will include extended art gallery hours on Friday, May 6, from 12:00-8:00 pm for First Friday and Art Crawl activities. For further information and directions please visit the home page of this website or call 410-444-0022.

Nathaniel K. Gibbs (b. 1948) graduated from Frederick Douglass High School in Baltimore, Maryland and began his artistic endeavors as a fine arts major at the Maryland Institute College of Art. He continued post-graduate studies at the Schuler School of Fine Arts, and became interested in the painting techniques of “Old Masters” while studying under the highly regarded master of realism, Joseph Sheppard of Baltimore. In 1981, Gibbs earned a master’s degree in fine arts from the American University in Washington, D.C.

Gibbs’ work demonstrates his distinguished quality in classic representational art influenced by Diego de Silva Velazquez, Leon Bonnat and John Singer Sargent. His personal preference in subject matter is vast ranging and includes his original images of the buffalo soldiers of the civil war, as well as figurative composition, landscapes, still life and city scenes. His commissioned portraits of the former Mayor Clarence “Du” Burns, Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., Thurgood Marshall, Malcolm X and Abel Wolman have been added to the art collections of Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore City Hall and Banneker Douglass Permanent Collection.

May 6th @ 6:00 - Art Opening at Charmed Life Studio

“Is This The Answer To The Question?”

Group Show
Art Opening
May 6th, 2011
6:00PM to 10:00 PM

First, let me just tell you that this isn’t about you, it’s about me. Our love is too big for one person. I don’t know any easy way to say this, so I’ll just say it. We’re hosting a group show. Hear me out. We know that one artist at a time can work for some people; hell, it might even be what works for us, in the long run. It’s not what works for us in the month of May. We understand if this is a lot to take in right now. We hope that you can at least try it this one time. Who knows? Maybe it’ll be the best we’ve ever had.

May 6th, 6:00PM to 9:00PM, come down to the Charmed Life Studio and check out our first group show “Is This The Answer To The Question?”. We welcome all levels of experience, from the merely curious to those firmly entrenched in the fine arts lifestyle. There’s going to be live music by The Sean Heath trio and complimentary refreshments. No one is too old or too young. The whole thing is free, baby, just like love.

The Advanced Painting students from Harford County Community College have been invited to submit one painting for our first group show. Each student has been asked to submit a piece that exemplifies their search for artistic identity. The show will feature new work from the owner of Charmed Life Studio, Darl Gnau. The show will also feature work by Analise Luke, Bat Easter, Birgit Lujan, Devra Giles, Erin Sudeck, Gina Pierleoni, Gwyn Howard, Katie Stevens, Leah Werring, Liz Harrison, Mike Z, Rich Kaste, Seraphim Wilson, Stephen Howard, and Sunnye Warner. This show runs until June 3rd.
