Dreamscapes such as this richly-hued piece have put Michael G. Moore on the global map. He was invited to show in the 2003 Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte Contemporanea in Florence, Italy, as well as the Woburn Gallery in Bloomsbury, London, after he was discovered through Northwest Louisiana Art Gallery, the site he founded in 2002.
In an interview with Jennifer Flowers for the Shreveport Times, Moore said he is using acrylic instead of casein at the moment. He is at work on the biggest pieces of his life, one a 72" X 72."
In May he will show his large canvasses at Cafe des Amis in Breaux Bridge, Louisiana.
Moore will show works on paper at Prima Tazza, 8835 Line Ave., Shreveport, Feb. 14-March 11.
Similar to his recent canvasses, Moore's online work has been heroic. He has fashioned pages for over 40 regional artists and has made it a dynamic site. Last year he and I determined to offer the Critical Thinking section of the site as a forum for local writers.
Rebecca Hudsmith, Michael Parker, Noma Fowler-Sandlin and I have been published for the past year through Moore's art site.
Today Moore is spending increased time painting and the Critical Thinking section writers are using blogs to publish stories and photos. Nonetheless, we are linked and indebted to Moore's catalytic thought and friendship.
