Erica Norelius: Natural Places & Urban Spaces
Mar. 1 – Apr. 28
Erica Norelius’ new series of work offers an in-depth dive into the natural spaces of the Golden State, reaching from the coastal cities and desert areas, north towards Oregon. The quiet presence of man is often seen in small intrusions such as power lines and roads. Equally compelling are her captivating cityscapes, which capture the busy highways and urban street life of Oakland and San Francisco.
Gina Werfel & Hearne Pardee: Fragments
Feb. 9 – Apr. 2
This exhibit highlights recent paintings, collages, and drawings of Gina Werfel and Hearne Pardee, who have recently retired from teaching at UC Davis after having spent more than 20 years teaching art, in addition to maintaining busy studio practices. Despite the differences between their respective work, they each approach their practice with the intent of layering or fragmenting multiple points of view or perspectives.
Bussie Parker Kehoe: Lucky Seven
Mar. 5 – 31
This month, we are featuring work along the stairway by mixed media artist, Bussie Parker Kehoe. This series incorporates seven colors of old house paint and seven distinct assembling styles.
