COLOR GRID RE-VISIONS
Solo Show of Collage Paintings by
FLORENCE WEISZ

RIVERSIDE GALLERY
Riverside Square Mall - Suite 201
360 Hackensack Avenue
Hackensack, NJ 07601

PRESS RELEASE:

The Riverside Gallery is pleased to present Color Grid Re-Visions featuring the collage paintings of Florence Weisz.

On view are 23 abstract artworks on paper that combine free-flowing organic forms within geometric structures. Ms Weisz has developed a unique medium using vibrant color pigments dissolved in alcohol and with them has created her signature collages in a process that is both intuitive and analytical — art that appeals to the heart and the intellect.

Born in New York, Florence Weisz works and lives in South Orange, New Jersey. After earning a degree in Fine Art from Douglass College, Rutgers University, she painted and studied in Paris, New York City and in Jerusalem. Weisz's art is in numerous collections including The New Jersey State Museum, Citibank, IBM, and The Port of Authority of NY and NJ.

She has created site-specific commissions for residential interiors, corporate and public spaces, including PSE&G, Schering Plough, Chubb Insurance and the Municipality of Be'er-Sheva. Her art has been on exhibition in the US and internationally in one-person and group shows at museums, galleries and alternative spaces. She is a recipient of a NJ State Council on the Arts Fellowship Award.
