The Blackfriars Gallery Presents: “Reimagining: Faith, Hope and Love” by Deborah Joan Lanino

The Blackfriars Gallery 2301 Vine Street, Berkeley, CA, United States

Reimagining: Faith, Hope, and Love features approximately 20 paintings by Los Angeles based visual artist, Deborah Lanino, made between 2020 and 2024. One could say art is in her DNA, going back to Renaissance Italy. These selected works were inspired by an ancestral, spiritual and art infused pilgrimage that reflects a contemporary view of traditional subject matter seen in Renaissance art.
