Fair Haven artist Luba M. Caruso to Exhibit in NYC this July!

Luba M. Caruso was born into a family of artists. Both her mother and paternal grandmother were painters, and Caruso recalls her early experiences with their work as an absorption of artistic beauty. She attended Villanova and the Parsons School of Design, ultimately studying graphic design and fine arts. Caruso paints in oil, drawing inspiration from the Jersey Shore towns of Rumson and Fair Haven, painting both land and seascapes. “My style focuses on serenity,” she says, “through soft brush strokes, color composition, and a juxtaposition of the strength and power of water with the beauty of landscape.”

Caruso has painted local landscapes for many years. The soft brush strokes she describes form soft clouds looming above the water, hypnotic and alluring. Occasionally a boat bobs gently in the ocean or a local walks the beach, trailed closely by a loyal pet. “My art is a reflection of my everyday life,” she says. “Art is a way of injecting beauty into the trying demands of life.”

Luba M. Caruso currently lives and works in Fair Haven, New Jersey.

About the Exhibition

Dynamic Visions: A diverse range of artists creates many views of nature

While the artists in Dynamic Visions all use the outside world as a source of inspiration, the diverging paths they take to express that inspiration result in a rich and revealing collection of images. From making paintings that incorporate the earth itself as material to creating brightly colored abstractions in which nature’s rhythms are transformed into striking patterns, these artists take the essential qualities of land, sky and sea and reimagine them as part of their own personal visions. Alive to the many forms and moods that nature can take, each of them establishes a unique connection to the outside world, whether that means realistically depicting a sky or landscape, or uncovering the primal, abstract forms that lie beneath the surface. That variety can also be seen in the many textures and approaches that are on display, giving every piece a unique physical presence and providing each artist’s work with a strong individual signature. When seen together, their works constitute a many-faceted take on how we see the world around us.
