I am so very excited about this show - the largest so far in our very short history! The work in this show represents a tremendous variety of media - painting, photography, digital art, mixed media, metal, glass, acrylic, fabric, clay, wood, and ceramic! Amazing artists...fabulous art...inspired by shape, abstraction, geometry.

 

Geometry - squares, triangles, circles, ellipses, cones, cubes, and polygons ... length, area, and volume. Geometry frames our world and shapes our world. It brings order, organization, balance, symmetry, and asymmetry to our surroundings. Geometry is used by carpenters and astronomers as well as theoretical mathematicians. The concept of geometry is so simple and appealing that even young children seem to intuitively draw squares and circles and rectangles. Yet the concept of geometry is so complex that mathematicians and physicists may spend years studying applications and theories of one tiny aspect of geometry. Then there is the artist. When an artist's unique view .. of the world, of the self ... incorporates geometric shapes or focuses on natural or man-made geometric shapes, the result may be an amazing display of shape and color. Geometric abstraction can be daring, imposing, powerful, stark, complex, bold, or rhythmic.

Be sure to take a good long look at the work of Regina Davidson, Isabelle Hope Grahm, Susan Farrar Parrish, and David Stelle. They are this show's Artists of Distinction and will be showing more of their work as Gallery Artists in 2011. Read about them in the Gallery Blog.

 

Enjoy the show!
