Gallery 9 in Foscoe, NC, Features New Works of Wayne Trapp

Gallery 9 in Foscoe, NC, is presenting an exhibition entitled, New Works, by Wayne Trapp, which will be on view through the month of Aug.

Trapp is one of the South's leading contemporary artists. He has created and exhibited works of art for over three decades. His works can be found in many corporate and private collections throughout the United States and Europe.

Trapp has studied at Ohio State University, The Pratt Institute, and the Institute of Art in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, as well as studying calligraphy in Japan. His skill in calligraphy shows evident in his brush drawings. For Trapp, the dance of life and making art are one in the same. His art is a melding of materials into shape and form, which evoke a sense of magic and delight. As a painter, Trapp explores a personal vision. His Abstract Expressionist paintings are a result of a passionate approach to art. Most often inspired by music, Trapp's studio thunders with the sounds of jazz and classical.

This exhibit will showcase Trapp's variety of interest and skill. The gallery will hold Trapp's new oil paintings, stone sculptures, sculptural fountains and his original brush drawings. More work is available to be seen at his studio located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Vilas, NC.
