Come on out and celebrate with former Lakewood resident, Tom Hoitsma, as the KRISTY STUBBS GALLERY hosts his first Dallas one man show in 2016 this Thursday from 6-9pm. This is the first time eight of his new large works (and some smaller works) will be seen together.
Working in the SOHO New York art scene of the early 1980’s introduced Tom’s to a huge group of up and coming artists including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Cindy Sherman and Jenny Holtzer, all of whom showed at The Barbara Galdstone Gallery. However, his primary influences continue to be the Abstract Expressionists he was exposed to in College, under the guidance of Harry Gaugh PhD. In the mid 1980’s Tom moved to Dallas, Texas and expanded his vision through creating television programming. In addition to his painting he has produced a variety of award winning television series including “The Texas Music Scene” which continues to air throughout the country.
