October 17- November 18, 2008
Opening and artist's presentation: October 17th 4-7p.m.
"Journeys" brings a sweeping collection of new work by Tatjana Krizmanic to B. Deemer Gallery, October 17 to November 18 2008. Tatjana's cheerful market scenes depict the bustle and abundance of a European, and now often American, Sunday morning tradition, where the market is both a celebration of the harvest and a social occasion. Café vignettes capture the intimacy and anonymity of café life, where we are all observers as we look out the window to passers-by, or at a couple sitting across from us. These works have a casual familiarity, and they speak of a delight found in taking time off, in joining with our friends and fellow city-dwellers in the simple pleasures of life. Like a breath of fresh air, and with a hint of the unknown, the exhibit offers a broad selection of whimsical landscapes and seascapes which transport us to the fields and shores of Tatjana's native Europe. These playful renditions feature interpretive colors and shapes reminiscent of French post-impressionism, where hue and texture express emotion and experience. Tatjana displays her own unique vocabulary of forms, marks and palette in these works that results in a kind of poetry: we are told of the sea as glimpsed when looking past local trees and flowers, or of an unfolding pattern of fields and farmhouses reaching into the distance. In all we find, as in her urban work, a reminder of life's variety and subtlety, observed with appreciation and joy.

The Light in the Air

August 16th - October 2008
Tatjana Krizmanic brings the sea and sky, dune and brush, water's edge, and fishing town's narrow streets to life in her recent show of Cape Cod inspired work, "The Light in the Air". In this new body of pastels and oils, Tatjana introduces a more subtle palette of colors and hues. When applied to familiar landscapes, these unusual color choices and formal arrangements result in an interpretive realism: the works describe the emotion and imagination that arise in the artist's own experienceóa sense of poetry found in ordinary places. They capture Cape Cod's distinctly dream - like quality. Anyone accustomed to Tatjana's style will find in this new body of work a greater presence of the artist's inner world, released on canvas and paper with skillful abandon.

Eleven Poems

In this collection of works Tatjana pays homage to some of the worlds greatest poets, whose words resonate with her own experience.

Surreal and inventive, her work combines the optimism of America with the more reflective pace of Europe. Not burdened by the need for painterly formalism, her consistent theme is the expression of joy, which infuses her unforgettable figures and landscapes. She sees this book as a dance, or partnership, and hopes you will enjoy these windows on love, longing, hope, appreciation and the fire of the human spirit.
