Lisa Matrundola's Opening Reception

Lisa Matrundola was born the youngest of five children in Montreal, Quebec. Her parents immigrated from Italy and England in the late 1950s. As an adolescent, she enjoyed dance and representational drawing and painting. After earning a BFA from the University of Georgia, Lisa worked in Atlanta as a designer and illustrator. Amid raising two children, she established a custom cake bakery, renovated and managed several rental properties and taught group fitness classes, but something was missing. Lisa entered the 2016 Artfields exhibition, where she received one of ten Merit Awards. This recognition ignited a passion to explore themes of female identity through painting and sculpture. The work encourages conversations about our collective survival and coexistence on planet earth.

To be covid responsible, MINT is limiting the number of people within our 7,300sq ft space. Our normal occupancy capacity is 375 people but during this opening day, MINT is limiting the number to 50 people maximum. All guests are required to wear masks inside galleries and practice social distancing. Timed tickets will be for one hour. MINT staff will clean high touch areas. This exhibit and for sale pieces will be in our online store by April 24th.

For the past 15 years, MINT has supported, nurtured and exhibited Atlantas Emerging Artists. Please consider donating $15 towards our campaign to raise $25,000 so MINT can continue to show experimental contemporary art and help make Atlanta a national center for the arts. https://www.mintatl.org/donate
