Happy Tents by Linda King Ferguson
The Magnuson and Ferguson exhibit opens April 3 in both Upper and Lower Galleries, and spotlights the work of Diana Magnuson of Marquette and Linda King Ferguson of Munising.

Magnuson, who is an illustrator and artist, believes in detail and uses it to explore mythological themes. Ferguson uses a reduction of the visual to convey her meanings.

 “It’s about the very different external representations of internal reality that form the basis for all artists’ work,” said Pasqua Warstler, Bonifas Gallery and Education Director.

“Diana Magnuson has a very realistic style in that she works with recognizable figures, using them to form complex works with many meanings. Linda King Ferguson, on the other hand, has a spare, abstract style that she uses to transmit complex meanings. It’s a very interesting show.”

 The show will be featured in both Upper and Lower Galleries through April 26. There is never a fee to visit the Gallery or to attend receptions. Center hours are Tuesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m., and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday.

Magnuson and Ferguson is sponsored in part by funding from the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs. For more information, call 786-3833.
