GALLERY HOUSE IS PROUD TO PRESENT “EARTH” (Fine Art Group Exhibition)
Opening Receptions:  February 25 & March 6, 2010 and by appointment
 
Two original paintings will be raffled off with the proceeds donated to MillionTreesNYC

Brooklyn, NY: Gallery House is proud to present “EARTH,” an environmentally themed group exhibition. This exhibition in both form and function is meant to celebrate and highlight the challenges our planet is currently facing. It is critical for our own survival that we learn to put a priority on the environment’s needs. Many of us have become so immersed with day-to-day responsibilities and possessions that we have begun to neglect the stage that our lives play out on. “EARTH” refocuses the viewer’s attention to nature through the medium of art.
Two receptions will be held during which one original painting will be raffled off with the proceeds donated to MillionTreesNYC, a public-private initiative between the City of New York and New York Restoration Project to plant and care for one million trees across New York City by 2017. The gallery will be open by appointment from February 5^th through March 12^th.

About MillionTreesNYC
MillionTreesNYC is a citywide, public-private initiative with an ambitious goal: to plant and care for one million new trees across the City's five boroughs by 2017. By planting one million trees, New York City can increase its urban forest - our most valuable environmental asset made up of street trees, park trees, and trees on public, private and commercial land - by an astounding 20%, while achieving the many quality-of-life benefits that come with planting trees.

The New York City Department of Parks & Recreation (Parks) will plant 60% of the trees in parks, on streets, and in other public spaces. The other 40% - coordinated through New York Restoration Project (NYRP) – will be planted by private organizations, homeowners and community organizations. Parks and NYRP are working with community partners to assess tree planting opportunities on schoolyards, public housing campuses, health care facilities, business districts, commercial and residential developments, front yards and other private lands.  For more information about MillionTreesNYC, visit www.milliontreesnyc.org or call 311.

GALLERY HOUSE IS PROUD TO PRESENT STYLE OF NATURE
BY JONATHAN LEVY

50% of all proceeds go to Council on the Environment of New York City (CENYC)
Brooklyn, NY: Gallery House presents STYLE OF NATURE by Jonathan Levy

Gallery House will open its doors to the public with a solo exhibit Style of Nature by Jonathan Levy.  After July 24, the gallery will be open by appointment. Through Jonathan Levy’s work (www.styleofnature.com), he attempts to glorify Mother Nature and her creations. His paintings reflect imagery found in nature, representing mankind’s collective beginnings marked by the patterns and movements that exist around us. Ranging from the repetitive design of a flower, to the rhythm and flow of the ocean, Levy’s work, through subject matter and process, reflects the unpredictable temperament of nature. In the spirit of “green,” Gallery House is marking its Grand Opening by donating 50% of the proceeds to CENYC. “Our partnership with Jonathan Levy and Gallery House for Style Of Nature reflects a shared vision of preserving the natural beauty of New York City,” said CENYC Executive Director Marcel Van Ooyen “Like Jonathan’s philosophy, everyday CENYC staff, volunteers, and the youth we serve roll up their sleeves to create and preserve green spaces, plant trees, and restore habitats and shorelines in hopes of contributing to a healthy environment.”
