Jay Maggio
Raised in New Roads, Louisiana, Jay Maggio developed an early love for
trees. His paintings are an homage to their majesty and grace. Set on
surreal and colorist landscapes, the isolated trees reflect a feeling of
oneness, inspiring a sense that we represent a small but important part
of nature and our universe.
Jay Maggio attended Louisiana State University, studying automotive
design, before graduating from Northwood University in 1982. This will
be his second solo exhibition with Pan American Art Gallery. He was
most recently honored with a solo exhibition at his alma mater,
Northwood University. His paintings have been collected by the Scottish
Rite Hospital of Dallas, the Turtle Creek Association, AIDS Services of
Dallas, and by private collectors throughout the U.S.
Darlene Wall
Receiving her BFA from the University of Texas at Austin, Darlene Wall
is a native Texan who has found inspiration for her landscapes from the
Texas Hill Country, Wyoming, Maine, and California. Darlene Wall
renders each painting with an atmospheric quality to capture her
personal emotions and experiences with these landscapes. Her studies of
light prove to be the most poignant and impressionable.
This will also be her second solo exhibition with Pan American Art
Gallery. Wall has exhibited throughout the US since 1995, receiving
awards from the Salmagundi Club, the Pen & Brush Award, and placing with
the Houston Civic Art Association each year from 1996-1999. Wall has
also been featured in two issues of Southwest Art Magazine.
Pan American Art Gallery, based in Dallas, Texas, specializes in art of
the Americas. Established in 1994, the gallery seeks to create a bridge
between North and South American cultures and to present and exhibit
artists from both regions concurrently. By dealing with emerging to
already established artists, as well as secondary market paintings,
sculpture, and works on paper, Pan American Art Gallery seeks to
contribute to the growing art community of Dallas. The gallery is an
active member of the Dallas Arts Dealers Association.
