Paintings and drawings.
Sep 8th - Oct 9th.

The Ambassador of Norway to the United States, Mr. Knut Vollebæk,
will open the exhibition at the opening reception taking place Thursday, Sep 8th, 2005 @ 6 pm.

Wenche da Cruz is a Norwegian painter from Kongsberg - a town in Norway famous for its rich resources of silver - hence the title of the exhibition: From Silvertown. But the images Wenche da Cruz presents is much more than 'landscapes' from this beautiful smalltown. Her goal is – though art – to create a dwelling place for people to enter into. With both seriousness and humor she works with figurative as well as with abstract motifs – with pencil, watercolors, acryllic and oils. She may seem ‘un-Norwegian’ in her use of symbols and admits that she has received a lot of inspiration through her many years living abroad in different parts of the world. We are happy to present Wenche da Cruz at Trygve Lie Gallery and we welcome you to attend the opening reception taking place Thursday, Sep 8, 6 - 8 pm, where Ambassodor Knut Vollebæk will officially open the exhibition.
