New work by Marathon artist Georgina Hosek will be the subject of Key West Art Center’s next Featured Artist Show. The public is invited to the Opening Reception on Friday, February 19th, 5 to 7 pm. The exhibit will be on display, with original artwork and reproductions for sale, from February 19th through March 3rd.

Hosek, a graduate of the School of Arts and Crafts in Brno, Czechoslovakia was an artist-illustrator for the Czechoslovakian Academy of Sciences and and for the Archaeology Department of the Royal Ontario Museum, Toronto, Canada. Hosek has traveled extensively throughout the world exhibiting her oils and pastels. “I am interested in both realistic and abstract art and feel that a wide variety of expression helps maintain constant artistic growth.” Living in Marathon since 1975, where she founded the Pottery Studio, her images are based on years of travel, archaeology and her love of the ocean.

This exhibit is part of a series of Featured Artist shows by member artists at the Key West Art Center, a non-profit community art gallery located at 301 Front Street, and open every day from 10 am to 5 pm. Call (305) 294-1241 or visit www.KeyWestArtCenter.com for more information.
