New exhibit opens in galleries
Sept. 23, 2009
The Farnham Galleries will feature the work of George Rose Sept. 23 to Oct. 16.
A reception and gallery presentation featuring the artist will be held Sept. 24 from 5 to 6 p.m.
Rose’s paintings in this show will reveal nearly fifty years of influences and experiences. Rose sometimes works from direct observation and other times from memory and invention. He believes that successful painting is the result of some innate talent, a well-grounded education with emphasis on drawing, a tenacious work ethic, a rage to create and knowledge of and feeling for the beauty and living relevance of the painting tradition.
Rose has taught painting and drawing on the college level for 35 years. He received a BFA at Washington University, St. Louis, and his MFA at University of Colorado with additional schooling at the New York Studio School, New York City, and the Yale Summer School, Norfolk. Rose began his teaching at Missouri State University. He has also taught at Boston University, Northwest Missouri State University, Maryville, the New York Studio School, and the Chautauqua Institute, New York.
Over the years, Rose has exhibited in competitive, invitational, group and solo shows, primarily in college and university galleries throughout the Midwest and the northeast United States.
