In Memory of Donald Longabucco 1939 – 2019
Don
Longabucco explored many different types of artistic techniques over
the years. His work started with figurative oil paintings and
watercolors, then changed to abstracts, and finally to paper collages.
His meticulously cut out small pieces of paper
create a riot of disconnected color at first sight, but actually
require concentration and quiet as the viewer peers at individual pieces
and paths within the total work. He built each collage organically as
he worked.
Mr. Longabucco was among the founding members of Arts on the Lake and was part of the Visual Arts Committee, setting up and participating in the two shows presented at AotL each year.
Mr. Longabucco sadly passed away on December 4, 2019.
