'Interaction and Fusion' Art Exhibit Opens at Burnsville Performing Arts Center

The opening reception for the new "Interaction and Fusion" exhibition at the Burnsville Performing Arts Center (BPAC) is on Thursday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The exhibit features the artists Geneva Costa and Sara Hanlon.

From BPAC:

Geneva Costa has been exhibiting as a professional artist for over a decade, and also works as an art educator teaching drawing and painting classes at the high school level. The paintings at the exhibit show a departure from other figurative pieces that Costa is known for creating, moving from a more realistic rendering of the figure towards abstraction of the entire piece.

Sara Hanlon, graduate of MCAD, has enjoyed more than four decades as a studio artist with recognition, awards, exhibitions and sales with artworks in private and corporate collections across the US and abroad. Hanlon is owner and resident artist of Mill House Gallery & Gifts in Chaska’s historic downtown and teaches and conducts regular courses through Chaska’s community education. 

Hanlon pioneered Polymeric Fusion® making art using a wide variety of plastics, reprocessed and bonded or fused together to make a work of art. Hanlon’s works are three dimensional with layered paint applications to reveal depth and textures.

The dates of the exhibition are August 1 through September 8.

BPAC Gallery Hours: Monday through Friday 9:00 to 5:00 pm, Saturday 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, Sunday 12:00 pm – 4:00 pm.
