Florida Biennial VI Purchase Award
The Biennial Six purchase award was given this year to Tampa based artist, Carolina Cleere, for her photo collage entitled State of Mine. This large haunting and mysterious work is a superb addition to the Museum of Florida Art's Permanent Collection. It is part of a series that draws upon Carolina's childhood encounters with Florida's natural wonders and tourist attractions that existed into the 1960's. Her work is layered with environmental concerns and the impending distresses they have on Florida's ecology. |
The Biennial Six Juried Exhibit continues the Museum of Florida Art's commitment to provide exhibition opportunities for all Florida artists working in a wide variety of mediums. Bernice Steinbaum of the Bernice Steinbaum Gallery of Miami was the juror this year. With over 30 years in the gallery business both in New York and Miami, her discerning eye surely selected some of the strongest works being created in Florida today. |

From 1996 - 1998 internationally known photographer Betty Press documented many cultural activities within the African American and Hispanic communities in and around the DeLand, Florida area. These photographs originally accompanied a feature article for the Daytona Beach News Journal newspaper that her husband wrote. These photographs helped Betty learn about the new community she had moved to after many years of working in Africa. Before the current ongoing exhibit, these photographs were exhibited at Stetson University.

Topographies: Sculpture by Barbara Sorensen
Topographies is a traveling exhibition of work by nationally recognized artist Barbara Sorensen. Sorensen is known for her large-scale sculptural installations, which serve as references to geological forms and the conceptual notion of the vessel. Moving from her original works in clay, Sorensen has recently focused her energy on large-scale works in metals and resins constructing environmental vessels, which focus on the relationship between humans and landscape. Curator Barbara Bloemink states, "Sorensen's sculpture celebrates the earth's terrain by replicating its processes, characteristics, and imagery. By learning the language and visual vocabulary of the earth's geology and processes, Sorensen's work metaphorically reminds us of the globe's wild, natural beauty and brings it to our visual consciousness."

Harold Garde: Painting 50 years
As an outstanding painter, Harold Garde's roots go back to the abstract expressionist moment of the mid 20th century. These strong influences have helped create his current unique style as a figurative painter. His mediums include paintings, monotypes, and strappos which are a self-invented process of transferring dried acrylic paint from glass to paper or canvas. He moves from simplicity of form to intense psychological works with an effervescent wit. Harold Garde is a moving force in what every artistic community he finds himself and always emphasizes his belief in the personal and social necessity of art.
