Berger Presentation,
Friday 10th May, 10 am refreshments, 10:30 am presentation.
Dutch Golden Age Painting, 17th century.
Christian Quintin
The new Dutch Republic was the most prosperous nation at the time and
led Europe in maritime trade, science and art. A distinctive feature of
the period is the quasi absence of religious paintings. This lecture
will feature high resolution images of art and treasures from the past.
Please join us on this beautiful journey through time with amazing and
often largely forgotten masterpieces.
Christian Quintin was born in the town of Saint Brieuc, on the northern
coast of Brittany, France. He studied at the Beaux Arts Academy in
Paris before moving to the United States in 1981. His pen and inks
drawings, oils and pastels paintings have been exhibited in many solo
and group shows. Christian was represented by the famed Vorpal Gallery
in San Francisco and New York, which gave its first U.S. show to M.C.
Escher. He has been the recipient of numerous public commissions and is
represented by the Lorin Gallery in Los Angeles. He also has presented
over 40 Art and History lectures.

Art Share
1 pm Monday May 20th
Art Room, CAC
Join us for the next Art Share meeting, and bring some art work to
display and talk about, or just come to see what others are doing.
On April 15 the art share group was well attended and included a
wonderful artist/presenter named Larry Cannon. Not only did individual
participants share their work but they were also treated to a
presentation by Larry about how basic art principles can serve as a
beacon and inspire us when things go awry in an artwork.
Do you want to hang your art in the Card Room and Room G at the Berger
Center?
For years, our members have hung their art works in Room G and the card
room at the Central Activities Center. There was a hiatus in the Covid
years, and ever since few artists seem interested in displaying their
works at these sites.
We decided to change the process a little, to see if any of you might
respond to this opportunity. We currently have our artists and
photographers displaying their works for two month periods in the foyer
of the Oaks Restaurant at the golf club, and are thinking a change to a
similar system for the card room and room G might be more attractive.
Three artist/photographers, one in room G, one in each of the two
sections of the card room, would hang and display their works for two
months at a time. This would give each artist/photographer an
opportunity to display more works at one time for possible sales, and
to hang them in arrangements they preferred.
If you want to participate, or have other comments, send Phil Wilkinson
an email at the association's email address, members@oakmontart.com.

The art in the foyer of the Oaks Restaurant has changed.
For the next two months Dianne Hansen, Larry Cannon and Julian Lifschiz
will have their works hanging there. Check out the work as you go for a
meal or a meeting there.
