Raleigh, NC: June 2007: Suzy Andron, a Raleigh, North Carolina artist, has taken an
innovative approach to her artwork, bringing the ancient form of painting polytychs
into the 21st Century. Andron's style, polytychs, is painted on multiple canvases;
however, each canvas must stand equally on its own and as part of the overall story
the polytych tells. Centuries ago, these large paintings were used as altarpieces,
depicting religious scenes.

Andron goes beyond common diptychs and triptychs (two and three panel works), with
as many as eleven adjacent canvases, often placing each canvas in a different
position than the one it aligns to. She connects the canvases in a unique way with
custom framing, creating new geometric relationships. The abstracts are expressed in
radical, but defined, perimeters that are stunning from a distance and intriguing
close up.

Currently, Andron's work can be seen at the modern Mexican restaurant and tequila
lounge, Jibarra, located in Raleigh, North Carolina, as well as in corporate spaces,
such as SAS Institute. For more information about Andron's polytychs, including
requesting a showing, please visit www.andron.com or call (919) 606-2817.

"Painting in the abstract allows me to reach deep into the wellspring of who and
what we are as people," explains Andron. "Polytychs gives me the means to paint
without boundaries, creating pieces that allow people to have unique experiences
when they see my artwork, which, I hope, resonates with them beyond words."
