Exhibitions

This group exhibition will showcase a wide variety of the gallery's internationally recognized and emerging artists who will all have one- person exhibitions at the gallery in 2012.

Painters Kris Cox, Marcia Myers, Lynda Lowe, Hung Liu, Robert McCauley, Linda Christensen, Judith Kindler, Jonathon Hexner, Jenny Honnert Abell, and Theodore Waddell showcase their own unique styles. Kris Cox uses pigmented wood putty to create topographical  fields on weathered surfaces. Marcia Meyers, who passed away in 2008, transformed  the ancient technique of frescos into modern terms.  Lynda Lowe experiments with the interplay of image and word on both her paintings and sculptures. Liu's mixed media works make use of anonymous Chinese historical paintings and photographs. Robert McCauley explores animals and nature by depicting birds, animals, fish and other creatures in different ways and different circumstances. Linda Christensen derives strength of every day occurrences as subject matter. Judith Kindler is a multidisciplinary artist working in sculpture, installation, photography, and photo-based work embedded in rubber. Jonathon Hexner creates his pieces using destructive elements such as gun powder and detonation cord. Jenny Honnert Abell creates dreamlike mixed media imagery on old book covers. Theodore Waddell's lifelong career as a rancher inspires his painting of live stock in the Montana and Idaho plains and mountains.

Ceramic sculptors Margaret Keelan and Jun Kaneko are recognized world wide for their unique language of surface marks and patinas. While Margaret Keelan's ceramic figures have rough, wood-like surfaces with distressed glazes,  Jun Kaneko's large scale ceramic dangos have pristine, smooth painterly glazes. Bean Finneran composes cones, nests, circles and lines with hand rolled ceramic curves. Glass sculptors Nicolas Africano and Therman Statom display their different uses of the same medium. Jane Rosen, sculptor of birds and animals displays her raptors in stone and glass. New Media artist, Deborah Oropallo, international known since her inclusion in the Whitney Biennial,works with historical and contemporary images.
