Eugenio D’Melon and Israel Delmonte, both originally from Cuba, join forces in the exhibition titled “D & d Distillers”. Both artists look at society with a realist, at times, satirical eye. Eugenio D’Melon is a master fine art printer while Israel Delmonte is better known for his drawings and paintings. His work looks at displaced persons who having left their country are torn between their old and their new home and “the loneliness, lost dreams, sequels of a process of adjustment that will never end.”
The exhibition is scheduled to start on Thursday 12 April at 7 pm at the Mutual Gallery. The guest speaker is Claudia Hucke, Art Historian and Lecturer at the Edna Manley College for the Visual and Performing Arts. It is supported by National Commecial Bank, Carreras Group, Super Plus Food Stores, Capital and Credit Merchant Bank, Ideal Portfolio Services, RBC Royal Bank, NEM, BCIC, Scotia Private Banking Group, Island Mist, Kool 97 FM and Wray and Nephew.
The exhibition continues until 12 May 2012. Gallery hours are from Mon-Fri from 10 am to 6 pm and Saturdays from 10.30 am to 3 pm. The public is welcome on opening night and throughout the duration of the exhibition.
