NAPERVILLE, Ill. (May 18, 2015)-North Central College will showcase the work of four Chicago artists in a collaborative exhibit from June 19 through Aug. 8.
Titled "Pseudonym," the free exhibit will be on display June 19 through Aug. 9 in North Central College's Schoenherr Gallery at the Fine Arts Center, 171 E. Chicago Ave. The featured artists-Michael William Foster, Jaime Foster, Barry Dwyer and Andy Christopoulos-will greet visitors and give a collaborative painting demonstration at a reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, June 19.
The exhibit will feature separate works by husband and wife duo Michael William Foster and Jaime Foster as well as paintings created together by all four artists.
In 2014, the artists formed BJAM, a collaborative effort of the Chicagoans using the first letter of their first names. Born from the love of painting, the group creates visual harmonies for their audiences. Working together on the same canvas, each artist contributes a dynamic effect for a piece of artwork. Michael's data-driven post-modern elements, Jaime's abstracted environments, Dwyer's style of emotional portraiture, and the constructiveness of Christopoulos' work all combine to create something unique in every work of art.
