of t�e
A story that began centuries ago with Russian Czar Peter The
Great continues as renowned Hollywood writer/director and
painter George Gallo and nationally recognized American
painter Don Sahli explore the three hundred year old connection
between the Legacy of the Great Russian Masters and today’s
resurgent American Representational and Impressionist art
movement.
Gallo and Sahli are honored to support the Vilar Performing
Arts Center and the 23rd Annual Beaver Creek Art Festival with
four days of painting and special events surrounding a benefit
screening of Gallo’s critically acclaimed movie, Local Color, an
inspired story of a young painter with his Russian master mentor.
From 1982-1985, Don Sahli had a comparable experience as
the last apprentice to Sergei Bongart, the great Russian virtuoso
painter. Gallo and Sahli will spend the week painting outdoor
locations around Vail and Beaver Creek, capturing local scenes
on canvas. To view these works, visit Vail Fine Art on Thursday,
July 29 and Beaver Creek Fine Art, Friday, July 30. Join us for
the following events.

JULY 31
July 29 – August 1, 2010
Dear Clients and Friends of the Arts:
An integral part of this special weekend will be the screening of
the award-winning film “Local Color” presented by Hollywood’s
celebrated international movie director and artist George Gallo.
He will be accompanied on stage by well known American artist
Don Sahli. The two men have much in common as you will see.
Be sure to see the attached schedule of events. On Saturday
night after the movie screening, a VIP event will be held in the
large backstage area of the beautiful Vilar Center. There, you can
meet George and Don in person, take photos, and ask questions
about their amazing artworks. Then I will personally display
and explain to you a number of stunning Russian masterpieces,
many of which have never before been seen outside of Soviet
Russia. This lecture in art and history will include delicious
hors de’oeuvres, champagne, and personal stories regarding
how I found the art in the huge landmass that is today called
the Russian Federation. Enjoy appetizers by Chef Michael
Wilganowski of The Osprey at Beaver Creek, and desserts by
the Columbine Bakery.
In conclusion, please join us for our July 4th weekend Grand
Re-opening of our original Vail Fine Art Gallery in the Solaris
