Artisan 4100 Taps Local Artists for Collection

“New Growth, New Beginnings” by Janis Goodman

As with its sister project across the street, Studio 3807, developers of the Brentwood building worked with local artist John Paradiso to select the artworks.

“The Gateway Arts District is home to fabulous and talented artists; it makes it easy and fun for us to find art that is beautiful and reflective of the community,” said Landex Development CEO Peter Siegel.

Some of the art was commissioned for the development, which will open in February.

Erwin Timmers of Washington Glass Studio in Mount Rainier is creating a lit glass sculpture from recycled materials that will be incorporated into the building’s structural columns. Mount Rainier artist Valerie Theberge, who created a mosaic for the Hyattsville skate park, is making another for the courtyard.

And Mount Rainier’s Margaret Boozer-Strother, recently named “best local artist” in the Hyattsville Wire reader poll, scavenged the construction site during the excavation process for materials for a piece of art.

Other local artists featured include Shahin Talishkahn, Janis Goodman, Chris Bohner, Joe Hicks, Ellyn Weiss, Alonzo Davis, Laurel Lukaszewski and Robert Devers of Mount Rainier; University of Maryland professor Patrick Craig; Tom Hill of Studio 3807’s Portico Gallery; and Laurie Breen, Jodie Ferrier and Katie Dell Kaufman of Brentwood.
