  • New Orleans, LA (1888PressRelease) April 14, 2011 - A reception featuring the work of New Orleans artist Jimmy Block has been announced for Saturday, May 7th, 2011 at Guy Lyman Fine Art on Magazine Street, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. The event is open to the public; refreshments will be served.

    The opening is scheduled to coincide with the traditional Magazine Street "art walk" held the first Saturday of each month during the art season. Other area galleries will be open as well.

    "Jimmy Block's work has always been innovative and intriguing," said gallery owner Guy Lyman. "He has taken some new directions with these latest mixed media pieces, and even those who have followed his artistic career are sure to be surprised."

    The pieces include collages, light sculptures and drawings, all with a geometric theme. "Geometry exists in everything around us," explained Jimmy Block. "My work is about the placement of objects in order that shadow can give - through light - motion to each object over time. With these works, I have also experimented with the combination of motion, light and color."

    Block's work has been shown at the Bienville Gallery and Ostriker Gallery in the past.

    For more details about the opening, please contact gallery manager Lindsey Roussel at info ( @ ) guylymanfineart dot com, or (504) 899-4687 dot
