Third Friday Celebration
Unveils Art Exhibit
|
The
Cumberland County Improvement Authority
unveiled a new
public art exhibit
as part of the Millville Glasstown
Arts District Third Friday Celebration
on
June 15, 2007. The new “trompe
l’oeil” paintings were created
by Philadelphia artist Kyle Margiotta
and proudly display on the interior walls
of the Improvement Authority’s
offices at 2 North High Street. The event
marks the fifth anniversary of the former
Millville National Bank building’s
grand re-opening as the offices for
the Cumberland County Improvement Authority. |
The
bank building’s interior renovations include a re-creation of the facades
of the Weatherby Hotel and Kreamer’s Pharmacy, which were located across
the street from the Bank in the early 1900s. The windows of the facades feature
artwork by local artist Andrea Workman. The new paintings by Kyle Margiotta of
the “exterior bank building windows circa 1900” complete the interior
illusion of the buildings facing each other.
Margiotta was on-hand to unveil the new paintings, to answer questions, and to
display other pieces of his art. Since graduating from the University of the
Arts in Philadelphia, he has been displaying his hyper-realistic paintings and
drawings in galleries in Philadelphia, New Jersey, and New York. He has been
working in the arts as an illustrator, a fine artist, and an instructor for the
last 10 years.
