Tom Forrestall's painting hangs at The Armory show

Tom Forrestall's painting of a figure in a landscape scene on the far right.

Dad's egg tempera painting was chosen as one of the pieces to be exhibited in the Contemporary Canadian Art show in The Art Dealer's Association of Canada booth at Pier 94 at The Armory 2011. The painting was loaned by his Toronto gallery Robinson Kinsman, who had this painting in a one- person show of dad's a few months back.


I visited the booth on the very busy Saturday afternoon to see the painting installed and take some photos of dad's beautiful painting. The imagery in this egg tempera painting is a quiet scene of downtown Dartmouth. Here are some shots of the booth (above).

Here's an overview shot of part of the Armory from the stairwell that leads to the modern wing on Pier 92. This are is mainly contemporary European and South American galleries.
