NEW BRUNSWICK, NJ, November 11, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ --The Alfa Art Gallery is proud to present "Art and Healing," the joint exhibition of Iliyan Ivanov and Michael Fenton. This exhibition is dedicated to demonstrating the role of the arts in the healing processes of individuals, ranging from traumatic experiences to the stresses of daily life. Ivanov and Fenton are inspired by the stories of self-healing in their own lives, and of people around them. The artists use art as a healing practice that is able to express that, which cannot be expressed through words.

About the Artists

Iliyan Ivanov received his education from the George Yanakiev Art Studio in Bulgaria and the National Academy of Design, School of Fine Arts, in New York City. He has exhibited in several solo and group exhibitions in the United States, Germany and Bulgaria. His affiliations include the Momenta Art Slide Registry, Artist Space Slide Registry and the Viewing Program Slide Registry at The Drawing Center in New York.

Michael Fenton is a representational-narrative painter who generally paints from his own experiences or his personal connection with the subject portrayed. After a successful career in the corporate world, he retired to pursue his love of art, painting in a variety of modes and mediums. His works range from Korean folk painting to realism to near-impressionism.
