Inspiring Architectural Art

Observe one of Ottawa’s newest architectural wonders from an entirely new perspective. From May 8 to 23, Wallack Galleries will feature a solo exhibition by local artist Sheryl Luxenburg entitled The Elusive Window Reflections Of The Ottawa Convention Centre. Luxenburg specializes in hyper-realistic watercolour and acrylic painting. Her paintings, which can easily be mistaken for photographs, are visually astounding.

The intricate precision, detail and skill that go into every piece reflect Luxenburg’s dedication to the technique for over three decades. This collection of work studies the aesthetic interaction between the surfaces of the Ottawa Convention Centre and the Westin Hotel. On each canvas, Luxenburg captures the patterns created on the reflective glass surface of the Convention Centre’s exterior.

A portion of the proceeds from painting sales will be donated to the University of Ottawa Heart Institute Foundation. Whether you are an art aficionado or a newcomer to Ottawa’s art scene, Luxenburg’s talent is sure to impress. For more information, visit: sherylluxenburg.com
