About the Item

John Constable RA was an English Romantic landscape painter. He believed that imagination and emotion were an important part of artistic expression and so incorporated these tenets into his lush, idyllic scenes.

    Located in New York, NY
    Michele Zalopany was born in Detroit, Michigan. She attended the Columbus College of Art and Design from 1973 to 1974 and the Cleveland Institute of Art from 1976 to 1978. She earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the School of Visual Arts in 1981. Through her labor-intensive mezzotints, Zalopany employs realism to depict fictitious scenes, bearing witness to the disintegration of what was once the fulcrum of the American economy in Detroit. Zalopany’s work is widely represented in many public and private collections in the United States and in Europe including The National Gallery of Art, The Yokohama Museum of Art, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Walker Art Center, The Museum of Fine Art in Boston, The Cleveland Museum of Art, The Royal College of Art in London, and numerous others. Her work has been exhibited in galleries that include P.P.O.W., John Good...
