LAURA SPONG 2006-2010

The exhibition celebrates Laura Spong's 85th birthday and is accompanied by a exhibition catalogue with essays by artist and art critic Mary Bentz Gilkerson and if ART's Wim Roefs

Since her highly successful 80th birthday exhibition in February 2006, Laura Spong’s career has taken off. She had a significant presence in the Columbia, S.C., art scene before but is now easily one of the city’s most respected and popular artists. In the South Carolina Midlands, Spong, has become a household name among art aficionados, and her sales have increased accordingly. No longer is she simply the beloved and respected little old lady in the back at Vista Studios, the studio complex in Columbia’s downtown Vista district where she paints every weekday.



This show is equivalent to an old review and tribute artists. Although already 85 years old, still in the creation of more works. Nothing more than her name and works more persuasive for such an exhibition, so the designer with her name as the cover art and the focus of many works to pick out from a picture, strong colours, layout in the middle of the cover. Since the works selected colourful, background colours on the use of deep yellow, the screen will be too warming most impetuous, so use the black at the bottom to add depth.
