AWARD WINNING ASSEMBLAGE ARTIST DAWN ROBYN PETRILIK WILL GUEST JUDGE

Assemblage artist Dawn Robyn Petrlik has been creating noteworthy work in NYC for over a decade. Her pieces range from large scale
theatrical designs (Radio City Music Hall, Broadway, Television) to
intimate landscape paintings (currently on view in Brooklyn), to live
installation works; most notably, "The Lonely Death of Esmin Green",
and "A Photo Op with Sarah Palin", both of which garnered worldwide
media attention in 2008. Described as 'part Michael Moore and part
Disney', Ms. Petrlik's work frequently returns to the theme of death
and our struggle with the world around us. Animals are a recurring
vehicle for her story telling, and her lifesize deer sculptures
utilize multiple materials that underscore their own creation. She is
happy to be able to be a guest judge at Gallery 364, where her sculpture
'Deer Down' won Best in Show last fall. For more information on her
