Santa Clarita Artists Association member, Olga Kaczmar, presents a one-woman show at Canyon Theatre Guild (CTG) throughout May and June 2019.

“I’m very pleased to be invited to show my work again,” said Kaczmar.  The display will include landscapes, florals, people and animal portraits. This will be a new collection in oil, watercolor, and pastel during the run of ‘Moonlight and Magnolias’ and ‘The Importance of Being Earnest.’

In her earlier advertising career, Kaczmar created layouts and renderings for patent applications, ads, exhibits and brochures. Her computer-generated famine-genocide posters have been shown in the USA, Canada, Ukraine, France, Australia and United Kingdom.

‘Moonlight and Magnolias’ is an epically hilarious small-cast comedy about the making of Hollywood epic ‘Gone with the Wind’ which was inspired by actual events!  ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ is Oscar Wilde’s enduring Victorian comedy about mistaken identities and relationship hijinks, now proved to be a timeless classic!

“Reality Optional: The Unhinged Wit of Phil Althouse” features digital work from Los Angeles based artist Phil Althouse who is fascinated by the challenge of telling a story and injecting humor and theatrical timing into a single still image.

Phil Althouse is an award-winning fine art photographer based in Los Angeles. Originally from the San Francisco area, Althouse moved to Hollywood and spent the bulk of his career in the film and television industry. The comedy and drama of “the industry” has informed his photography ever since.  He became fascinated by the challenge of telling a story and injecting humor and theatrical timing into a single still image. In 2010, one of his nature images was chosen from a field of 45,000 for an exhibit in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C. One reviewer called his body of work “An extraordinary mix of classical photography, inventive modern imagery and devilish eye for humor.”

Guests attending this free reception on Thursday, April 18 will enjoy light refreshments and have an opportunity to meet the artist from 7-10 pm. The exhibit is on display from April 17 to May 15.
