Joao de Brito featured artist at Many Hands Gallery

Many Hands Gallery in Capitola is currently exhibiting new and existing works by Impressionist/figurative painter Joao de Brito. He is the gallery’s featured artist, October 1 through November 30, 2006.

Fresh from his recent solo exhibition, Paths of Life, which spotlighted his latest landscapes and was held both at John O’Leary Gallery in Hayward California, and Thanassi Gallery in Provincetown Massachusetts, De Brito’s work returns closer to “home.” Home being the Santa Cruz location of Many Hands Gallery where its owner, Kate Nolan, spends most of her time -- “there have been no other works that I would rather spend time enjoying than those of Joao de Brito,” she says.

The paintings of this Portuguese American artist have been exhibited all over the world and his work is represented in museums and private collections in North America and Europe. Art reviewers, curators, gallery owners and others have commented on the effect his images exert upon the viewer. Come experience for yourself the transformative power of this painter’s singular vision.



The new catalogue of the exhibition Paths of Life/Passos da Vida, about the artist, is also available at the gallery.
