This small exhibition will highlight the recent work of Knoxville artist Mike C Berry. Considered a versatile painter who works in vibrant colors, bringing energy and rhythm to each work, Mike Berry creates urban compositions that bend and twist the cityscapes that have become his identifiable style. His paintings consist of gestural brushstrokes and pure bright color. Recently, he illustrated a children’s book, “The Curious Adventures of Wickl Wackl and his Friends” written by his friend Renee D’Elia-Zunino.

He was the 2007 Dogwood Arts Festival Limited Edition Print Artist and was awarded Best Visual Artist in Knoxville by the Knoxville News Sentinel Readers Poll in 2009. He has exhibited his work in numerous group exhibitions and a solo exhibition; Something Blue, in September 2017.

He earned a MFA from the Savannah College of Art & Design. He is represented by The District Gallery in Knoxville, TN and The River Gallery in Chattanooga, TN.

Mike is also the gallery manager for the UT Downtown Gallery. He and his wife Leah live in Knoxville, TN with their daughter, Orly.
