Paul Marioni Artist Talk at Bellevue Arts Museum

Paul Marioni will give an artist talk, sponsored by Northwest Designer Craftsmen, at Bellevue Arts Museum on Sunday, May 22nd from 2-4 pm.

Marioni’s strongest source of inspiration is his dreams, which he believes reveal a deep, universal truth – one unhindered by the ego. “Most of my work over the years has been painterly and figurative,” says the artist. “It is about human nature: what we do, why we do it, how we ornament ourselves, our heroes, historical moments, humor, sexuality, exotic and lost cultures, spiritualism without religion and, overall, a constant questioning. I purposely leave my work open to interpretation – I don’t want to tell the viewer what to think, but rather to cause them to think.”

Space is limited. RSVP here.
