An oil painting, entitled "A Visit to the Armor Shop," from "Man at Work: The Eckhart G. Grohmann Collection at Milwaukee School of Engineering" will be on display in Bilbao, Spain, according to MSOE.
The Bilbao's Fine Arts Museum has decided to honor one of the city's greatest artists by holding an exhibition in his honor. Fifty pieces by Eduardo Zamacois y Zabala, have been lent from collections around the world, including one from MSOE.
The painting was part of a donation to MSOE by Grohmann in 2001. MSOE's art museum is currently getting a makeover, but will have a space for "A Visit to the Armor Shop" when its stay in Spain is complete. The Zamacois exhibition runs from Oct. 17 through Jan. 28, 2007.
Originally from Des Plaines, Ill., Heather moved to Milwaukee to earn a B.A. in journalism from Marquette University. With a tongue-twisting last name like Leszczewicz, it's best to go into a career where people don't need to say your name often.
However, she's still sticking to some of her Illinoisan ways (she won't reform when it comes to things like pop, water fountain or ATM), though she's grown to enjoy her time in the Brew City.
Although her journalism career is still budding, Heather has had the chance for some once-in-a-lifetime interviews with celebrities like actor Vince Vaughn and actress Charlize Theron, director Cameron Crowe and singers Ben Kweller and Isaac Hanson of '90s brother boy band Hanson.
Heather's a self-proclaimed workaholic but loves her entertainment. She's a real television and movie fanatic, book nerd, music junkie, coffee addict and pop culture aficionado.
