Posted 11/17/99 - TWO LAMBERTVILLE ARTISTS TO SHARE SPOTLIGHT IN MILLENNIUM SHOW - Lambertville, NJ, (November 14,1999) ...Suzanne Douglass and Anna Bayon, two celebrated Lambertville painters, will exhibit recent works in a special Millennium show entitled Two from Lambertville, at the Hrefna Jonsdottir Gallery,24 Bridge Street in Lambertville. The opening reception is on December 11th from 6-9pm. The show will usher in the Millenium and close on January 3, 2000.
Bayon, best known for her lush landscapes of local scenes, is a native of Argentina and a transplanted New Yorker who has made her home in Lambertville since the early 1980’s. Educated in Buenos Aires, and later in New York at the Art Students League and the Frank J. Reilly School of Art, Bayon has not only participated in numerous prestigious area shows, including the Annual Phillips Mill Show in New Hope, PA, but has also been included in group exhibitions by the Trenton Museum, the New Jersey Center for the Visual Arts, the Museum of Modern art Argentina, Museum of Modern art of Brazil, and the Museum of Modern Art of Mexico as well as the Museum of Contemporary Art of  Spain. Her paintings hang in a number of important local and corporate collections as well.
Suzanne Douglass has lived and painted in Lambertville since 1971. She is one of the area’s best-known, widely collected artists. Her oils, noted for their richness and depth, have a lustrous opalescence created by extensive underpainting which makes them sought after by collectors from New York, Philadelphia Washington and beyond. Though still life has become her hallmark, she is also recognized for her impressionistic landscapes and her haunting portrait "heads" which have a mysterious, spiritual quality. Douglass has been a regular participant over the years in the annual ArtsBridge juried show at Prallsville Mill and the Phillips Mill Show in New Hope. Her entries at Phillips Mill won awards in 1991 and again in 1993 in the categories of Traditional Oil Painting and Representational Oil Pinting.
This special Millennium show marks the first formal exhibit in several years for either artist. " This is a really special event," says gallery owner, Hrefna Jonsdottir.
" We are very pleased to offer Two from Lambertville as our Millennium  celebration." The Hrefna Jonsdottir Gallery, 24 Bridge Street ,is open from 10-6 Monday through Saturday and from 11-5 on Sunday. For information call (609) 397-3631.
Members of the press are invited to attend the opening December 11, 1999 from 6
