Opening: Monday, May 23 at 7:00pm

On view at the SACI Gallery, in Florence, Italy, May 23 through June 17: A series of archival pigment prints created by Betty Wilde-Biasiny. The artist began making these prints on a trip to Florence in 2008. Later, during a longer stay in the Tuscan coastal town of Camaiore, she made en plein air watercolors and drawings in both urban and rural environs. She became interested in the eternal spaces and framing that embrace both architecture and nature, essentially nature framed by architecture. Her work is characterized by the merging of past and present time into colorful schemata.

Betty Wilde-Biasiny is an artist, curator, and associate professor of visual art at SUNY/Empire State College in New York City. Her primary art forms are painting, traditional printmaking, and digital/archival pigment printmaking. She received the Individual Artist Award from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation in 2000. Exhibitions include The Painting Center, New York City; Usdan Gallery, Bennington College, Vermont; and the Bronx Museum of the Arts, New York City. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Ohio University, Athens, Ohio and a Master of Fine Arts from Columbia University, New York City. She was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and lives in New York City.

The SACI Gallery is open Monday to Friday 9am-7pm, Saturday and Sunday 1-7pm.
