"Doing
business long-distance is always tricky, but Metropolitan Framing
makes it easy. Their staff is very attentive to the details when
I place my order, and they meet my deadlines. I've used Metroframes
for two shows now, and their mouldings are consistently cut exactly
to size and delivered promptly. It's very easy to install my oil
paintings into their floater frames with the hardware that they
provide. Their frames give my work a professional presentation at
a reasonable price."
Statement about the Artist/Artist's Work Using traditional
elements such as fruits or vegetables combined with objects found
in his home and studio, Michael Zigmond reinterprets the still life
with some contemporary and often comic twists. Zigmond has participated
in over 60 exhibitions in Boston, New York, the Midwest and West
Coast in the last 18 years. His current work evolved from an interest
in depicting interiors bathed in direct sunlight. Using this light
not only as a source of illumination but as a compositional element,
he focuses on intimate tableaus, often combining disparate objects
with a sense of humor and mystery of the world around him.
