Dear Friends,

Welcome to MB Abram Galleries.

We are delighted today to share with you the wonderful lithographs of June Wayne.

The June Wayne lithographs inaugurate a special MB Abram Galleries' feature on art with a water theme. Wayne, the founder of internationally celebrated Tamarind Lithography Workshop, has been appropriately called "the incontestable pioneer of modern lithography". We are thrilled that Wayne's participation allows us to introduce this series in such a meaningful and historic way.

Concurrent with Wayne's conversation, we enthusiastically present the second video episode in our Artists of the Seas series, this recorded in East New Orleans. Louisiana shrimp boat captain Trong Nguyen demonstrates the evolution of fishing from its ancient Vietnamese traditions.

Also please enjoy the continuing exhibition of contemporary needlepoint artist Jan Haag, which turns on its head the traditional concept of that art.

A selection of gallery art and artifacts remains on exhibit. Very shortly, this collection will be refreshed with art and artifacts from additional leading international artists exploring, as June Wayne has done so brilliantly, the mystery and inspiration of water .

Thanks for your continuing interest and support.

All best,

MB
