SUMMARY:Ronald Peetz: Work in Progress
DESCRIPTION:Ronald Peetz: Work in Progress \nExhibit: February 11 – April 2\, 2025 \nReception: February 14\, 6 – 9  PM (FREE) \nArtist Ronald Peetz has been a stalwart part of the regional art scene since the late 1960s. As an object maker and sculptor\, he delights in incorporating puns\, word play\, and irreverent humor into his work. Starting with his concept\, he chooses any one of the many media he employs\, to best make his idea come to life. In so doing\, his sculpture and mixed media pieces lean heavily towards social critique and parody\, blended with a lighter touch of humor and surrealism. Equally present is his interest in the history of art\, particularly his own 20th century inspirations\, from René Magritte and Marcel Duchamp\, to William T. Wiley\, one of his friends and mentors. \n  \nArtist Talk with Ronald Peetz \nMarch 15\, 1 – 2:30 PM (FREE\, $10 donation suggested) \nTalking with Ronald Peetz is much like his work – fun and full of humor. Peetz’s conceptual pieces are anything but dry\, as he uses materials such as baseballs\, violin cases\, and funerary headstones\, to underline his political and social messages. Join him as he talks about his days as an art student in the 60s\, inspired by artists such as Stephen Kaltenbach\, William Wiley\, and others. \n  \nSponsored by Helen Richardson. \n  \nThe Pence Gallery is open 11:30 AM – 5 PM\, Tuesday through Sunday (closed Mondays). \n  \nImage: Ronald Peetz\, “The Old Ball Game” \n

SUMMARY:Biophilia: Our Longing for Nature
DESCRIPTION:Biophilia: Our Longing for Nature \nExhibit: April 11 – June 4\, 2025 \nReception: April 11\, 6 – 9 PM \n  \nArtists for millennia have reflected upon nature as the inspiration and subject of their work. Our affiliation with animals\, plants\, and the wild spaces of our world is defined as ‘biophilia\,’ or love for living things. Twentieth-century naturalist E.O. Wilson offered the theory that humans are ‘hard-wired’ to build a complex relationship with the natural world in his book Biophilia (1984). In our 21st century world\, the question is how do we build relationships with a natural world that is under threat from climate change\, habitat destruction\, and other forces? \n  \nParticipating artists in Biophilia look to scenes both intimate and overarching for an understanding of the elemental forces beyond man’s knowledge. They point to the power of the earth’s resources\, and our need to comprehend their use and power. Other artists in Biophilia turn to animals for their symbolic and cultural resonance. The simple practice of painting en plein air\, directly in natural environments\, offers a continuing record of our need to capture the ephemeral beauty of landscapes that skirt our largely urban existence. \n  \nParticipating artists include Elaine Bowers\, Patrick Cosgrove\, Mark Goudy\, William Ishmael\, Carol Jenkins\, Linda Clark Johnson\, Qinqin Liu\, Liza Riddle\, and Marsha Schindler. \n  \nThe Pence Gallery is open 11:30 AM – 5 PM\, Tuesday through Sunday (closed Mondays). \n  \nImage: Linda Clark Johnson\, “Heat Wave” \n
