Frank Habbas Art Show
Artist and longtime Washington resident, Frank Habbas is presenting his first solo exhibition at the Five Points Annex Gallery in Torrington from Feb 3rd to Feb 11th.
Gallery Hours: Tuesday-Sunday, 1:00-5:00pm
Opening Reception: Saturday, February 3rd (4:00-6:00 pm)
Entitled EVOLVING: A COLLECTION OF PAINTINGS BY FRANK HABBAS, the exhibition will showcase the range of styles with which the artist has experimented over time. Spanning his early, realistic works reflective of his background as a comp illustrator to more recent paintings that embody a dreamlike quality, the exhibition represents the evolution of the artist’s subjects, style, and viewpoint.
“My work has always been based on people and how they evolve. Our intellect and our physical being are constantly changing and growing. As I continue to paint, I find myself wanting to go deeper, to find something beneath the surface,” says Habbas.
