NEW YORK, NY, May 10, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Superior Room Service and Fabulous Dreams Art Show Presented by Abstract Artist Susan Olmetti and Eye-wear Sculptors Mercura NYC. In Art Studio 219 at the landmark Hotel Chelsea in New York, an opening reception at 5:30 p.m. is designed to build on the momentum of contemporary abstract artist Susan Olmetti's 2008 art show. That show presented in the Hotel's Grand Ballroom, attracted hundreds of guests to this historic center of the art world. Her newest offering, opening July 16, 2009 will feature her latest works, "The Jonah Series". A self-arranged and produced event, an installation of her all-wearable art will also be on display.
Ms. Olmetti, in the role of curator as well as featured artist, will be joined by exhibitors Rachel Cohen-Lunning and Merrille Lichenstien-Cohen, sisters who together form Mercura NYC. Known for their one-of-a-kind style, they have designed an exquisitely futuristic collection of unique fantasy jewelry, metal fashions and table-mounted sculptures that truly compliment Olmetti's style. In preparation for the 2009 show, Mercura NYC has two original sculpture creations that are on their way to completion, along with many scintillating sunglass creations.
During the show, "The Jonah Series" by Olmetti and Mercura NYC offer observers insight into their art with heart, exposing the inner beauty of the artists within. The Tappan Z Gallery of New York proudly represents the Jonah Series. The artistry of Mercura NYC and Olmetti have been featured internationally in Inspire Magazine.
