MAKING WAVES | Spring Group Exhibition
Opening, 5pm - 7pm Friday, May 31st - June 22nd
As metaphor, to make waves is to take action, to step out of one’s comfort zone and embrace the unknown. An artist with vision is one who “makes waves”, is one who watches as closely as the poet for the meaning in the everyday. Visionary art can show us the extraordinary in the ordinary. And by it, we are suddenly caught surprised by a new experience of what we think we know.
Join us for our Spring Group Exhibition, Making Waves, including the inspired art of David T. Alexander, Christopher Benson, Lynn Boggess, Francis DiFronzo, Jeremy Mann, Lee Price, Brian Rego, Aron Wiesenfeld, and Kent Williams.

MICHAEL SCOTT | Preternatural Water
Opening, 5pm - 7pm Friday, May 31st - June 22nd
Michael Scott continues his decade long conversation with the the four elements of the landscape: Earth, Air, Fire and Water. The upcoming exhibition, Preternatural Water examines the properties and power of water to destroy or renew.
A long time resident of New Mexico, Scott has traversed the country visiting the US’s National Parks to start small plein air “conversations”, as the artist refers to his out of door study paintings. Many of these studies become mid-size and then large paintings reflecting the animate and spiritual power of America’s most remarkable landscapes.
In the painting “White Water and Broken Canoe” turbulent white water has destroyed the boat, itself a metaphor for any obstacle that has appeared in one’s life journey. While the canoe hints at discoveries waiting downstream, it also suggests an opportunity for resilience; one can rebuild the boat and prepare for life’s next challenge.
“The natural world is a great teacher and if we listen closely we decipher its language and learn how the spirit of the planet helps us survive.”
