AMY BEECHER AT EYE LEVEL EXHIBITION SPACE
First in a Special Contemporary Art Series


New York, May 16th 2008


" The Eye is an oversensitive acquaintance with whom one must stay on good terms"


Eye Level at Victor Osborne opens with a solo exhibition of Amy
Beecher's work, curated by Gabriela Alva. The show marks the beginning of the atelier's efforts to foster new work by emerging artists.
The Exhibition space, is contained within a window that allows, the spectator's eye to participate both actively and passively with the various art forms displayed.

For its inaugural show, Eye Level presents the eclectic multimedia paintings and assemblages of Yale MFA candidate Amy Beecher.
Drawn to the nostalgia and romanticism of the old-fashioned workshop, Beecher will exhibit her work in the atelier’s window and interior workshop, seamlessly blending her own creations into the space. Viewers will discover her fabric assemblages hanging from racks and piled in corners amongst traditional tools of the hat making trade. Pointing to the commonalities between the artist's' studio and designer's workshop, the exhibition pays homage to the mysterious allure of the creative site.

This exhibition space hosted by Victor Osborne Atelier is another effort to connect Artists with their immediate environment, through art, culture, and commerce.

Beecher’s work is on view through the end of July with an opening May 16th at 8PM.
