Dear artists and friends of the gallery!

We are delighted to bring you

Our June Online Group Art Show "Moments"

Within the realm of art, time ceases to exist as a linear progression. Instead, it becomes an impression, allowing artists to freeze a single moment or a thing, preserving it in all its glory. In our mesmerizing "Moments" group art show, the selected 65 artists showcase those instances that have left an indelible mark on their art practice and their lives. It is through their various artistic expressions that we get to witness the power of art to immortalize fleeting moments of significance. From ordinary everyday objects that mean so much to them, the joy of a shared laugh with friends and family, the silent solitude of a sunrise, and the complex emotions woven into the fabric of human existence and psychology. This art show is a celebration of the extraordinary concealed within the familiar, a reminder that within each moment lies boundless inspiration, contemplation, and wonder.

We are happy to announce that Joanne M. Meurer our Solo Show winner from "May Flowers" premiers her show today and the show runs from June 1 to 30th, 2024.

You can view the show on our Website.

Joanne M. Meurer is the creative director and founder of ReInvent Strategies, Inc., a boutique marketing and branding firm located in NYC. She brings over two decades of corporate branding and strategic marketing expertise to New York City's entrepreneurial landscape. As Creative Director, she ensures businesses authentically represent themselves in print and online, fostering their unique identity. Joanne's impact extends beyond marketing; her Acrylic Mixed Media works have been displayed at several galleries across NYC and Brooklyn, solidifying her presence in the artistic community.

Joanne's commitment to the arts is evident through her involvement with BWAC and "Art on The Terrace," which demonstrate her dedication to fostering artistic expression. Currently represented by NYC Arts Empire, her artwork has been displayed on the NASDAQ Billboard in Times Square, Big Screen Plaza in Midtown Manhattan, and several KIOSK throughout NYC, further underscoring her significance in both the marketing and art spheres.

"Exploring beyond the confines of traditional art, I embrace the challenge of sculpting three-dimensional forms that mirror the depth of my personality and aspirations. Like a master craftsman, I mold form and substance into expressions of dimensionality, inviting viewers to journey beyond the surface and uncover the hidden layers beneath. When you encounter my work, what may initially appear as a distant tableau soon reveals itself as a vibrant tapestry of complexity and nuance. With each brushstroke and every note, I invite you to delve deeper into the kaleidoscope of my soul—a realm where light and shadow dance in harmony, where chaos and order merge to form a symphony of expression. In every moment, in every creation, I rediscover myself—a seeker, a storyteller, a dreamer of boundless possibilities. Through my art, I invite you to join me on this timeless voyage of discovery, where the journey is as infinite as the creative spirit itself."

Congratulations Joanne and please enjoy her show everyone!

Elevate Your Artist Bio & Statement With

HMVC’s Gold Standard

We are very happy to announce that we have implemented a new service called "Artist's Writing Aid."

We are well aware of how artists struggle with writing Artist Bios and Statements because we review them every month. Many artists do not realize that their Artist Bio and Statement are a gateway to the art world and unfortunately many end up missing out on good opportunities because of poor writing.

So why not let us help you tell your story in a way that resonates, captivates, and elevates your artistic identity.

With our "Artist's Writing Aid", we provide you with a white glove mentor service by:

★ Uncover Your Unique Voice: We’ll conduct interviews and research to understand your artistic journey, inspirations, and aspirations.

★ Craft a Compelling Narrative: We will transform your experiences and thoughts into engaging narratives that captivate your audience.

★ Tailor for Your Audience: We consider your target audience—whether it’s galleries, collectors, or the general public—ensuring your artist bio and statement resonate with them.

★ Edit and Refine: We provide multiple rounds of revisions to ensure your bio and statement are perfect in every way.

Together, we’ll take your artistry to new heights!

HMVC Gallery New York is now offering you the opportunity to have your own solo show on our ArtPlacer virtual platform for a month. Because the artists in our community are at various stages in their careers, we have created three different plans for you to choose from Plan Manor, Plan Palace, and Plan Castle.

This is an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in doing a Solo Show with us.

Visit our ongoing Virtual Solo Shows.

This service is by request only so if you would like to know more you can contact us via the contact form or email us at [email protected]

Kind Regards,

HMVC Gallery New York
