April 2012, Joe Giacalone

General Meeting at Davis Library, 6400 Democracy Blvd, Bethesda, MD, at 2:00. 
Dianne Bugash had to cancel, so we had our own
Joseph M. Giacalone discussing...

What is the common thread through graphic design, advertising art, photography and sculpture - into fine art?
 
Fifty-four years experience as a technical, graphic, and award winning advertising artist, he is now a fine artist. Joe was the founder and president of Renaissance Communications, Inc., a full service advertising agency serving commercial and government clients in the Washington, D.C. area.

Joe’s presentation started with examples of poster illustration and photography produced by his agency. One of the posters included Arnold Schwarzenegger when he was the Chairman of the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports. Other examples were award winning design and original art illustrations.

Joe brought his own paintings to show his evolution from realism art to abstract painting.
 

 

The June speaker was introduced.
