George Perrou

Mod-Culture painter

Drawn to those shapes and colors as envisioned by Calder, Miro and Kandinsky, George Perrou has created his own style by imagining the everyday things he sees instead into his own colorful versions of reality...a style that can be best described as Mod-Culture!

Perrou is a distinctive genre' artist who has made the successful jump to the gallery scene, and is being snatched-up by collectors now in Dallas, TX and Palm Springs in addition to his hometown of Portland!  His work is both a unique narrative of colorful landscapes and structures, and made with a  technique equally as unique - which will not be easily copied...  George was a featured artist this season on OPB's Oregon Art Beat!  (watch Video here)

George Perrou will join collectors and fans to unveil his latest modernism-inspired paintings at a Wine and Cheese Reception in the Modern Villa Gallery on Saturday, May 2nd at 6PM.

Dates:

May 1-3:  "Spring Unveiling 2009” Art Festival, Cannon Beach, Oregon


 May 2nd, 6-9 PM:  Artist reception @ Modern Villa Gallery, 224 N. Hemlock #6, Cannon Beach, OR, 97110 (Map here)
