The vibrant colors of this Fauve-inspired, four-panel, acrylic on canvas depict the artist’s neighborhood in four seasons from four directions at four different times of the day. Using a similar composition, each panel is anchored by the green spire of the Saint Patrick’s Cathedral and the converging lines of a central street leading to a distant vanishing point near the mountainous horizon.
The El Paso native Marcus has worked as an independent artist since 1990, has mentored many artists while maintaining the Hal Marcus Gallery from 2000 to 2010, and has also generously donated artwork from his personal collection to the El Paso Museum of Art by artists such as: Manuel Acosta, Kate Krause Ball and Berla Emeree.
Parking is available at the Convention Center Parking Garage, Mills Plaza Parking Garage and the Camino Real Hotel for a fee. Limited metered parking is available on Main Street.
