Art on Symmes hosts expatriate artist Angie Reed Garner, July 19

Art on Symmes will host a reception with Angie Reed Garner, who will be delivering new work to the gallery, 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, July 19.
Garner, of Lexington, Ky., is a second-generation narrative figurative painter. She has been exhibiting actively since 1996 with nine solo shows in the United States, Europe and the Middle East.
Garner’s favored theme is the fragility of identity and belonging, that which makes social life possible, according to information provided by Art on Symmes. Her work explores gender, place, continuity and discontinuity of self, marginality, the refusal of self- alienation on saturated, symbolic canvases.
From an intellectual and activist concern for social justice, Garner also creates installations using resonant materials such as currency, vintage Americana, and toys.
Garner currently resides in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.

Sounds as if this will be an exciting show. Her colors are so lovely and the subject matter most interesting.
