Three Treasure Coast artists with distinctly different approaches to painting come together this fall in Three Voices in Contemporary Art: — Between Image and Idea, opening November 5 at the MIDFLORIDA Event Center Art Gallery in Port St. Lucie.

Featuring the work of José Farinos, Linda Reymore, and Mickey Rudolph, the exhibition moves from figurative imagery to geometric abstraction to contemporary and modern impressionism. Rather than organizing the exhibition around a shared style, Between Image and Idea places three independent visual languages in conversation with one another.

What connects them is the act of looking. Across the exhibition, color, form, space, surface, and structure operate in very different ways, inviting viewers to move between works and consider what is immediately recognizable, what reveals itself gradually, and what remains open to interpretation.

The late nineteenth century saw a surge of fascination with Japanese art and culture, influencing visual art, fashion, landscape design, and theatre. The image of the geisha became especially iconic and when Giacomo Puccini saw David Belasco’s Madame Butterfly in London in 1900, he knew he had found the subject for his next opera.
Puccini’s Madama Butterfly, the tragic story of a fifteen-year-old geisha who marries an American sailor, features some of his most passionate music and continues to captivate audiences more than 120 years after its premiere.

In this talk, Vero Beach Opera Master of Ceremonies, Ian Campbell, explores the history of the opera’s composition and considers some of the questions involved in staging it in the 21st century.
