PHILADELPHIA -- We are proud to host The City & The Sea, a dual-exhibition, in Gallery 2 of DVAA and in Jed Williams Gallery, of artwork by Eric Schaeffer. This exhibition runs concurrently with the DVAA hosted exhibition in Gallery 1, Look at US.
In Eric Schaeffer’s words, “My ‘City and Sea Images’ are collectively a study in contrasting forms, shapes and colors. The views of the Atlantic Ocean seem endless on the shores of Long Beach Island. I find a certain serenity watching the sand and sea fade off into the horizon when walking along the coast. These peaceful scenes are a reminder of nature’s beauty. I have a contrasting feeling of place while walking the streets of old Philadelphia. Instead of endless vistas I am drawn to scenes just across the street. The interplay of rectangles and sharp lines of the man made world are softened by age and become a foil for nature asserting itself when tree shadows are cast onto building facades. The Sea, completely natural and the City seemingly opposite but still connected to nature.'
