2008-2009 Kean U. Professor Exhibits at Blair
Steven Agin exhibits “New Painting and Drawings” now through March 7 in the Romano Gallery of Armstrong-Hipkins Center for the Arts; an artist’s reception was held February 7.
Agin, who resides in Delaware, N.J. (Warren County) is a painter and art professor at Kean University. He said, “My philosophy of art and painting is one which embraces all of experience personally. In an attempt to raise my subjectivity to a more objective level, I have studied western art history from paleo to contemporary as well as poetry and what natural science I can grasp. I love Heraclitus. My work tries to reconcile my desire to make something beautiful (as old as the Greeks) and to make something true (as new as America). I admire so many artists from the past - Delacroix, Piero, Cezanne, Ryder, Monk, Kerouac and Reznor and so many others. It is pleasurable to write their names but better yet to speak them.”
Gallery hours are Monday-Saturday, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m.; for information, call (908) 362-6121, ext. 5692.
