Description

This is beautiful work is part of a series of Chicago artworks that Dr Durst has created for the Chicago Artists Month, with a special exhibition at the Greenleaf Art Center on October 16th, 2015. Since the Chicago Artist Month coincides with the Chicago Architectural Biennial this year, the theme is The City As Studio.

To support the theme, Dr Durst has created Chicago Impressions to celebrate its architectural beauty. According to the Chicago Biennial Architectural web site:

The inaugural Chicago Architecture Biennial takes its title, The State of the Art of Architecture, from a 1977 conference organized by architect Stanley Tigerman, which invited leading American designers to Chicago to discuss the current state of the field. The Chicago Architecture Biennial will expand the spirit and scope of this event. It will invite both emerging and established practices from across the world to Chicago to demonstrate how groundbreaking advances in architectural design are tackling the most pressing issues of today. In this way it will enrich Chicago�s unique role in history as a crucible of architectural innovation. The setting for a succession of pivotal episodes in modern architecture and urbanism, and a context in which architects such as Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Mies van der Rohe developed revolutionary projects, Chicago will operate as a nexus for the ideas and practices that are driving global architectural culture in the 21st century.

This work shows the three flags: The Chicago City Flag, The State of Illinois Flag and, of course, the U.S. Flag flying in the wind with Chicago's famous Wrigley Building as its backdrop at sunset. As with most of his works, the artist strives to make the image three-dimensional to create an intimate magical moment. His works are also to create a sense of peace and harmony for the viewer. As a psychologist and heart-centered therapist, Dr. Durst has created visual experiences to connect to the heart.

Prints are available through Fine Art America, Fine Art Europe, Fine Art England and Fine Art Germany. They can be on canvas, metal acrylic, framed, gallery wrapped and even available as fine art greeting cards, throw pillows, etc. You can choose from one of 230 frames and 100 mats which can be used to create museum-quality masterpieces from any of my artwork.

To purchase a signed and hand-embossed Limited Edition, contact the artist directly from this site. Each one is hand glazed with many layers of acrylic paint and varnish to really bring out the beautiful colors and create a three dimensional effect. Thus, each Limited Edition of a fractal vision is a unique work of art and valuable as an investment piece.
