"City Life" at Cleveland Artists
Foundation
Artists, interpretations of Cleveland city scenes and urban life
are the focus of the Cleveland Artists Foundation's City Life exhibition,
opening November 20, 1999 at the Beck Center for the Arts at 17801 Detroit
Avenue in Lakewood. Curators Gloria Plevin and Patricia Brigotti selected
paintings, wood cutouts and fabric assemblages that convey a rare, human
quality for this colorful and vivacious show. (left: Virginia Maloof-Cascarilla,
