Adele du Tertre Fine Art is pleased to present the paintings of Gary Komarin and Soledad Salame.

Both artists capture the fundamental spirit of Enviroscapes: their work reflects the aesthetics and influences of our environment on the human race.

Born in Manhattan in 1951, the son of a Czech architect and Viennese writer who fled the Holocaust, Gary Komarin received a graduate teaching fellowship at Boston University where he studied with Philip Guston. Komarin was offered his first University teaching position at Hobart & William Smith Colleges in 1978. He has subsequently taught at The University of Oregon, Southern Methodist University, and The University of Iowa.

Salamé received her B.A. degree in Science and Humanities in 1972 in Santiago, Chile and has been the recipient of several scholarships, awards, and grants, including the Pollock Krasner Grant. In 2001, she created a solo environmental installation in the National Museum of Bellas Artes in Santiago, Chile, entitled "In the Labyrinth of Solitude." From 1999 to 2000, she participated in "Latin American Still Life, Reflections of Time and Place" at the Katonah Museum of Art and El Museo del Barrio in NY.
