When you walk into the gallery this August you could find yourself in the midst of the latest exhibit,
“uncertainty is possibility” …
deborah harris and Sae Kimura have been creating a collage out of cloth in response to a recent paper collage series that mixes Picasso and Caravaggio.
Gallery curator harris recently took two of the noted painters’ compositions, Guernica and The Entombment of Christ, merging them into a large collage. Segments of this work are now on display in the main floor Genesis Gallery where she and her assistant Kimura are recreating the images from many scraps of fabric, currently scattered across the space.
Another of the gallery’s unusual features is the development of exhibitions during opening hours; allowing visitors to witness the process.
Join Gallery Curator Deborah Harris and her assistant Sae Kimura as they create cloth “collages” in response to a series of works that mesh two well-known paintings by Picasso and Caravaggio.
And in the east Genesis Gallery, enjoy mixed media pieces by Terry FitzGerald including “The Tombs”, “Spilt” and “Rise Up” along with poetry by Harris.
Terry FitzGerald’s approach to art is to express what he is seeing around his world and then try to put that on canvas. He compiles his paint through organic methods and adds structure to the canvas with strange and interesting articles he has collected. Together the work is titled A Matter of Spirit, and is exhibited alongside sculptures by Floyd Kuptana and other artists.
PLEASE NOTE: The gallery will be closed Sunday, August 17 through Monday, September 1 and reopening on Tuesday, September 2.
