The Paris
Gibson Square Museum of Art selected two of Hooshang Khorasani's paintings
for its 19th annual Art Exhibition and Auction in Great Falls, Mont.
Beginning
March 14,2016, an exhibition of all art selections was presented in
three of the Square’s main-floor exhibition galleries,
with the auction following April 9.
Hooshang's
works are both acrylic on canvas: "Elegant Runner," a 36x36-inch
abstract, and "Colors of Nature," a 24x36-inch floral.
Paris
Gibson Square, one of Great Falls' oldest and most beloved landmarks, has
served as a center for learning and growth for more than 100 years. The
sandstone structure was completed in 1896 and served 34 years as Central High
School and 45 years as Paris Gibson Junior High before closing its doors in
1975.
In 1977,
community volunteers renovated and reopened the historic building as Paris
Gibson Square. Since then, the museum has provided a dynamic program of exhibitions,
classes, lectures, tours and performances designed to nurture the region's
creative spirit.
Proceeds
from the auction went to support the museum’s exhibitions and related educational
programs.
