 s excited to present the exhibition Michael\, Where are You?  Altered Stat
 es of North America\, featuring recent paintings\, prints and mixed media 
 works on paper by Michael Kowbuz.    How one really looks at the world aro
 und us is at the heart of Kowbuz's vision.  Through his work\, he seeks to
  turn our mediated view of the world inside out.  Kowbuz first captures hi
 s subjects &ndash\; people posing with their vehicles\, fleeting reflectio
 ns in windows\, somber urban views &ndash\; in photographs.  Using a grid 
 and working square by square\, he transforms the mechanically-reproduced i
 mage back into something unique with subtle qualities of color\, light\, t
 emperature and texture. He hopes his work poses the question &ldquo\;What 
 is real?&rdquo\;  Originally from Canada\, Kowbuz received his Master of F
 ine Arts from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1996\; previous
 ly he earned a Master of Arts in Community College Teaching and a Bachelor
  of Fine Arts.  He is the Director of Continuing Education Programs and an
  adjunct faculty member at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts\, and
  co-proprietor of Cerulean Arts Gallery and Studio.    Michael\, Where are
  You?  Altered States of North America is on view November 18 &ndash\; Jan
 uary 8\, 2010 and is free and open to the public.  The opening reception i
 s Friday\, November 20 from 5-9 pm.  The artist will be available to answe
 r questions about his work Saturday\, December 19\, 1-4 pm with a gallery 
 talk at 2pm.  Additionally\, Michael Kowbuz will conduct a weekend worksho
 p &ldquo\;Ink Wash Drawing&rdquo\; on January 2 and 3\, 2010 from 9 am&nda
 sh\;12 pm.\n\nStart time: Wed-Fri\, 10 am-6 pm\nSat & Sun\, 12-6 pm
