 Magnifica Terra

September 4th- October 27th

The exhibition will showcase artists appreciations and interpretations of our awe-inspiring surroundings, both natural and man-made. The landscape as a subject for painters has been long standing favorite. For some it is the engaging experience on being surrounded by their muse, for others it is a longing for a distant place while diligently working in a controlled space. Paintings of the space we inhabit and have yet to visit speak volumes to the relationship we have with the greater world, it’s humbling while intimate. We are part of something synergistic, a cycle, a constant change. Part of the greatness of capturing a scene is that it is eternally secured, now a moment in time encapsulated and celebrated for others to enjoy beyond that which happened just once. This collection of works give a not only an appreciation for the skill and talents of the artists but an opportunity for the viewers to look through a unique lens at something glorious and yet often taken for granted.

Informally Acquainted

May 9th- June 27th

A group exhibition exploring form as subject by contemporary artists. The collection of artworks addresses issues of self-identity, body type acceptance, intimacy and aging. Working in various mediums from timeless practices to exploring new materials and techniques, artists evince their appreciation of the human figure. Some exercise mastery of classic renderings of the subject while others seek expressive interpretations and inspirations of the all so familiar forms, albeit infinitely unique.

These modern examples of a classic motif naturally register with us because what we recognize is most familiar, a variation of the material self. These are moments in the finite life of another being, stilled and eternalized, sometimes celebrated. A story is told, energy is felt, and technical skills are admired. The intimacy of engaging a portrait or figure painting will always be reflective, enticing, and esteemed, from the experience the of artist to that of the viewer.
