Christy Grossmann: Something Lost; Something Gained

@ Vertical Gallery

2006 W Chicago Ave #1R, Chicago, IL 60622

Opening Friday, February 7th, from 5PM - 8PM

On view through Saturday, March 1st

Vertical Gallery is very proud to present ‘Something Lost; Something Gained,’ Chicago-area painter Christy Grossmann’s first solo gallery showcase.

‘Something Lost; Something Gained,’ which runs Feb. 7- Mar. 1, captures and celebrates the feminine mystique in all its myriad forms. The work draws insight and inspiration from milestones in Grossmann’s personal and professional life: in the months leading up to the show, she hit pause on a 13-year career teaching art to elementary school students, and gave birth to her first child.

‘Something Lost; Something Gained’ spotlights magical-realist portraits of enigmatic young women rendered in vivid acrylic hues. “I love to paint femininity — the flowing hair and the bright colors,” Grossmann says. “I have always been drawn to feminine energy, especially now. There are so many cool things about women and what we do.”
