CRISTINA TORO: Alive on the Intricate Earth Under Trees

August 28 - October 7, 2009

SMITH GALLERY

Painter Cristina Toro was born in Peurto Rico and currently lives and works in upstate New York. "Her tender, bright, riotous canvases ...captivate with their abundant detail and their range of references. She makes paintings so apparently cheery and stuffed with information that they both soothe and challenge. The party of colors and patterns, the enticing figures and animals, pull a viewer in and serve up odd juxtapositions and pleasingly unsettling dissonances." - Cate McQuaid, The Boston Globe
