Zenith Gallery: Nora Sidoine-Brown

Zenith Gallery:
This gallery has been around for many years, and helped usher many of the local well renowned contemporary artists forward. They were founded by Margery E. Goldberg who is still receiving awards for the work she's doing.

Mission Statement:
To promote exceptional artists at all stages in their careers and to remain at the forefront of Washington area art.

Artist and Artistic Statement:
Nora Sidoine-Brown
Sidoine-Brown's primary training is in architectural design. She has taught herself how to produce wonderful pieces of glass art so she can explore human motion and how it interfaces with different environments and times of tension. Her work has a huge range in forms, but all clearly show their meaning.

David's Thoughts:
Good Stuff. She can just add a curve and change a color and she produces a different piece (as in the waltz pieces) and show us a different part of human interaction. And her pieces are wildly different. I'm stunned at how different, and yet overwhelming effective her flat panels are (At the Bar). Despite my glowing praise, I think her work is a little commercial. I feel almost as if I could see the waltz pieces at IKEA. Almost.
