Established in 1979, Gallery West is the
oldest artist-operated gallery in
Northern Virginia. It represents
established and emerging artists
working in a broad spectrum of paint
media, as well as photography,
sculpture, woodturning and ceramics.
Creative Vision Television will provide a
showcase of their documentaries on
area artists Steve Fleming, Michael
Sprouse, Jason Horowitz, Catriona
Fraser, Giovanna DeSantis, Margaret
Huddy, Hilda Thorpe and Barbara
Dougherty. A slide presentation on the
large sculpture of Al Zaruba will also be
shown. In addition, area artists Lloyd

installation of the Vision Project
mosaics created by the artist members
of Gallery West. Januszkiewiczi will
produce a documentary on this project
for broadcast by Creative Vision
Television on their Cable TV Public
Access program about art and artists.
Photographer/painter Sharon Mason,
Gallery West's president, explains the
Vision Project's purpose: Everyone
knows that each artist renders the
visible world differently. But when a
number of artists collaborate on the
same project, the differences are
dramatized, and anyone can see what
each artist brings to the bare 'facts'
before their eyes.
