FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Cepia Club Introduces Artist Kurt Devine

          The Cepia Club’s Bizarre Bazaar in Centuria, WI, introduces Osceola artist Kurt Devine, on display now. Devine, who studied art at UW-Milwaukee in the late 1970s, uses a precise hand to produce his original, “vi-brilliant”-colored lyrical abstract landscapes. A man of reserved humility, Kurt Devine orchestrates a creative sight in detail for his selection of non-sequitur line forms and anti-geometrical shapes, transposing color into waves of bright light with all the qualities of a banging nebula on paper, canvas and wood. The use of acrylic, watercolor, and pen compose the unified mediums of his works now showing at Bizarre Bazaar Store located within The Cepia Club.

          A Club Friend, Kurt Devine has added a major distinction to The Cepia Club LLC’s community arts and artist initiative. The Cepia Club/Bizarre Bazaar is located on the main drag (Fourth Street), downtown Centuria, 6 miles east by north of St. Croix Falls on WI St. Hwy 35. “I think his art work will be a valuable asset to the Bizarre Bazaar, and a contribution to the intrinsic value of culture in Centuria,” said store intern manager, Angie.

          The Cepia Club promotes a culture of local community grounded in the people bonded by life experience to the land. Such a connection, the Club says, are the roots of neighborly fellowship with the past, present and future memory, all leading toward a goal of peace, unity, liberty, and freedom for those who think and act in the greater interest of the whole.
