TYNDALL GALLERIES - CHAPEL HILL, NC
"BETWEEN THE EYE AND THE FIRE"
"There were many great exhibits in 2004, but one that stood
out was the colorful take on modern art by sculptor Mary-Ann Prack
at Tyndall Galleries back in February. Prack's stoneware clays are
shaped and glazed intuitively, but come out very aware of Matisse,
O'Keefe, Miro, and to an extent, Picasso and Kandinsky. Being able
to conduct a modern art orchestration while retaining her own style
is what makes Prack's work memorable."
- Doug Stuber, Visual Arts Critic, Independent
Weekly, Durham, NC.

"HERSTORY 2004"
"Mary-Ann Prack's sculptures resonate pure harmony, balance
and the relentless positive spirit of humankind. Simple in form
yet endowed with a profound sense of ancient wisdom, they are sublime
and full of wonder. Prack is an artist who reaches deep within herself
to evoke universal themes. That is why I selected her work to receive
an Artist Showcase award in the Manhattan Arts International "Herstory
2004" competition/exhibition."

International, NYC, NY.

"O' APPALACHIA: ARTISTS OF THE
SOUTHERN MOUNTAINS"
"I haven't been this excited about an artist's work in a long,
long time. Mary-Ann's
sculpture affects me in so many different ways...and always with
total exhilaration;
intellectually, spiritually and emotionally. The essence of her
creations is really quite magical and her mastery of the medium
exquisite!"
