Reception set for Artitudes featured artist Bauer

Press release

Artitudes Gallery will host an artist reception for Jim Bauer's show, "Brain Salad Surgery," Friday, April 12, from 6 to 8 p.m.

Bauer was born and raised in Havre. He said he enjoyed art classes throughout his elementary and secondary education. While in college at the University of Chicago, Jim took three semesters of studio art for his humanities course. He continued to enjoy creating art after he got out of school and developed his own style in acrylic paint.

Because of glaucoma, his style has changed over the years, but he continues painting abstract art in bright colors and bold strokes as his eyesight fails.

People are invited to come to Artitudes in the Atrium Mall April 12 for refreshments, live music, artwork and conversation.
