Highlighting the 2007 Riverbend Art Fair is an exhibit of work by Saint Joseph, Mo. artist Dorothy Maginn. The show will include examples of Mrs. Maginn’s work in acrylic, oil, charcoal and mixed media created over the previous thirty-five years.
The exhibit at the Muchnic Gallery opens with a reception for the artist Wednesday, May 23 from 5 – 7 p.m.

Describing her work, Mrs. Maginn said, “I have tried painting peaches and pears and such…, but my work leans to the abstract.”
She hopes the work will provoke an emotional connection from the viewer. Mrs. Maginn added, “It has been said that everything (her art) suggests a point of mind at which life and death are real and imaginary, and that past and future, height and depth, come together.”

Mrs. Maginn studied art at
Missouri Western State University.
She has exhibited throughout the Midwest, including Kansas City, Omaha, Atchison and Saint Joseph. Her work hangs in homes and businesses in Missouri, Kansas, Georgia and Oregon.
