Tim (l) talks with Bill Dorsey at his opening
at The Gallery
|
Timothy
Davis, Owner and Director of International Visions
Gallery, has represented artists from all over the
world. While Tim has had several years experience
in researching, consulting, and teaching the arts,
it has been within the last six years, that he has
introduced fine original art by highly accomplished
national and international artists to the Washington
area through his gallery. The vast and wide-ranging
works that have come through International Visions
Gallery express reflections of life and cultures
in countries such as; Australia, Zimbabwe, Russia,
Kazakhstan, Bulgaria, South Africa, and Haiti just
to name a few. As the gallery’s founder, Tim's
vision is for the gallery "to be a vessel of
good will for all people who walk through the doors,
and to establish through art, a milieu that inspires
warm smiles and spirits." |
| He received his Master’s
Degree from the University of Illinois, where he
studied with artists Frank Gallo and Bill Carlson.
In 1979, he was awarded an Academic Fellowship from
the University of Illinois. Tim was then honored
by the National Endowment for the Arts with an Arts
Management Fellowship in 1984. He continued to work
for the arts in the Washington metropolitan area
as a consultant with the D.C. Commission on the
Arts and Humanities, D.C. Art Works Murals Project,
Council on Foundations, and Arlington County Arts
and Planning Commission. As a painter, his focus
has been to utilize themes that represent the changing
conditions of the human spirit and the interactions
of relationships between people. The colors used
in his work are very intense, creating a mysterious
environment within the painting and for the viewer.
He describes his work as "a personal understanding
of life, and the struggles of being alive on earth
in this space and time." He explores transparent
imagery, 3-D textures, and multiple layering of
paint in his compositions. Davis has exhibited widely
in Chicago and in the Washington, D.C. area. He
has many paintings in private and corporate collections. |
Our vision is to be a vessel
of good will for all people who walk through our gallery
doors, and to establish through art,
a milieu that inspires warm smiles and kind spirits.
Our purpose is to represent artists whose artistic
creations express unadultered reflections of life that
are neither autonomous, concentrated nor diluted- but
just are...
Our mission is to introduce fine original art
by highly accomplished national and international artists
to the Washington area and be a link between people,
cultures, and lifestyles.
