Beyond the Surface: The Art of Reverse Technique at Gallery of Modern Masters
Hillside- July 5th 4:00-8:00, Gallery of Modern Masters invites you to explore "Beyond the Surface: The Art of Reverse Techniques," an exceptional exhibition showcasing the mesmerizing technique of reverse painting on glass, plexiglass, and other transparent media. This unique art form will be highlighted through the works of distinguished artists, each bringing their singular vision and innovative methods to the fore.
Jamie Barthel elevates the traditional craft of reverse painting to luxurious heights with her luminous chandeliers and sconces. Each piece is a beacon of light, casting colorful reflections that dance across the room, embodying the delicate balance between light and art. Jamie remarks on the transcendent quality of her creations, "Please come by in the evening, even when we are closed, and see how they really glow. No matter the time of day, the beauty of these pieces shines through, illuminating their surroundings with an enchanting light." (Image "Santa Fe" reverse painted oil on glass)
Virginia Gabaldo explores the intersection of diverse forms and surreal textures. Her reverse-painted glass bas reliefs, formed by slumping layers of glass over sculptural shapes in a kiln, invite further exploration into their intricate layers and exposed surfaces.

Robert Ichter has perfected his technique of reverse painting on plexiglass over three decades. His abstract works are known for their rich layers of acrylic paint, which simulate the depth and gloss of layered glass, stimulating both thought and emotion.
