Frania has displayed his
artwork in galleries at Berwick Hospital, Barnes & Noble Wilkes-Barre,
Luzerne County Community College, and Citizen's Bank in Forty Fort. He has won
"Best of Show" in the annual Rossetti Memorial Art Exhibit and received awards
in other exhibitions, including the Cider Painters of America. He also showcased
his works in King's "Emerging Artists" exhibition.
Frania will discuss his
craft during a meet-the-artists reception from 6-8 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 18, in
the Widmann Gallery, Sheehy-Farmer Campus Center, located between North Franklin
and North Main streets.
"My goal while creating
this exhibit was to explore the ways in which images and styles affect
observers," Frania said. "I use a variety of image scales, compositions, and
levels of realism. These works exaggerate the variety among them which also
serves as a comparison between them."
The exhibition is free
and open to the public. Gallery hours: Mon. through Fri., 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m.; Sat.
and Sun., as arranged. The Gallery is closed on national holidays and during
scheduled breaks throughout the academic year.
