Like digital art and photography? A new exhibit will feature the works of two Santa Monica College professors.
The printmaking and digital prints of John Greco and Tom Lundquist — both adjunct art professors at SMC — will be featured at SMC in January.
“The general theme of my art has evolved from a strong romantic sense that art is life and life is art,” Greco said. “Art goes far beyond its physical representation and, through its essence, arouses the senses to knowledge.” He added that he centers most of his works around the human figure.
Greco has had his work exhibited in solo and group shows throughout the world, including the Armory Center for the Arts in Pasadena and the Lapis Arte in Salerno, Italy.
Lundquist said the images he created for the show, “follow the adventures of a mythical troupe of famous singing fish from Canada.” The images use, “a number of modeling and illustration programs and are printed on large inkjet printers,” he added.
The exhibit will take place at SMC Jan. 6 through Jan. 20 and will be held in the SMC photography gallery, located on the second floor of Drescher Hall, 1900 Pico Blvd. An opening reception is scheduled from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, Jan. 6. Gallery hours are noon to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
