For the second year in a row, John Palmer Fine Art Gallery from Houston, Texas has had an incredible and successful showing at the international fair of contemporary and modern art, Art Chicago.
Gallery owner and Featured Artist John Ross Palmer enjoyed rubbing elbows with American royal Chris Kennedy and showing his vibrant abstract pieces amidst prominent galleries from around the globe. Visitors to the John Palmer Fine Art booth enjoyed his cohesive art presentation of three booth themes: Home, Family and History. In the Home Zone, the original paintings featured a landscape inspired by the Great State of Texas as well as "The Barn," his 2010 Art Chicago Catalogue signature piece.
In "Family," paintings honored notable individuals from his mother's Canadian heritage plus his sister Charlotte, a highly successful business coach and consultant. The pieces in this History zone were historic original paintings, many of which were contained in Palmer's three first published books: Deliverance and More than Words (2003), Escapism (2004) and Seven Years (2005). Those tempted to linger in the booth loved not only his vibrant Escapism pieces but also enjoyed a video montage where Palmer spoke in an unscripted fashion about his life, career and motivation to create art. Art Chicago honored John Ross Palmer by selecting one of his 46" x 40" canvas Escapism pieces as a winner of the Survey America award which honors a noteworthy American artist or movement in contemporary American art.
All passers-by Booth 12-649 saw Palmer's bold message spelled out for them: "Art is Healing."
