"Our Parents and Uncles all got their mortgages from World Wide Financial." Melanie & Benjamin Brown Avoid the . coming recession. Paintings, Drawings At Robert Kidd An exhibition of new pain- tings by Moe Brooker and drawings by Glen Michaels 0 will be on display at Robert Kidd Gallery through June 6. Moe Brooker's abstract h _paintings reverberate with `vitality and color. As with all his work, Mr. Brooker's new paintings take their cue from urban graffiti and jazz. An ad- mirer of the great age of jazz, Mr. Brooker infuses his pain- • tings with rhythmic calli- F—graphy, hot color and a sense of structural form that is reminiscent of the underlying beat of good jazz. Mr. Brooker grew up in Philadelphia. A very specific influence on his work is the 0-, urban wall, often plastered with posters, public an- ' nouncements and graffiti. Mr. Brooker is intent upon cap- ° turfing in his paintings the changes that take place in these layered walls over time — the wearing away of posted materials by weather and vandalism and the addition of new, unrelated printed mat- ►ter and graffiti which creates a richly, rhythmic surface. Glen Michaels is a Detroit- area artist who- is known for his sculptural assemblages Oband major public commis- sions. This exhibition, however, will focus on Michael's drawings. Some are studies for sculpture; others reflect the musings, the vi- sion and the thoughts of an artist who is a Renaissance man. Michaels' interests and knowledge are wide-ranging, encompassing history, music 0 and science as well as art. His vision and sensitivity of ap- proach are clearly visible in • this series of drawings. _ Robert Kidd Gallery is at • 107 Townsend St., Birm- ingham.
