This upcoming show at the Gualala Arts Center celebrates nature and the environment while involving the viewer to see nature in new ways. Some of the selected artists have incorporated aspects of the Sonoma/Mendocino coast, while others will install site-specific works. These are not the standard flower paintings÷all the art selected for this juried show are unique and ground-breaking. Another first is the display÷both the indoor Burnett Gallery as well as the beautiful trails outdoors will be used to display the artwork.While it is always interesting to see the work of local artists, especially in non-traditional ways, this show will also introduce artists from the Bay Area and other parts of California. Participating artists are Karl Anderson of Sea Ranch, Marlene Aron of Oakland, Dwight Eberly of Sea Ranch, Jeanine Grimes of Cotati, Dodd Holsapple of Santa Monica, Ursula Jones of Sea Ranch, Brigitte Micmacker of Sea Ranch, Marion Patterson of Gualala, Ann Savageau of Davis, Richard Skidmore of Sea Ranch, Harmony Susalla of Gualala, and Wendy Testu of San Francisco. Several cash prizes will be awarded by local environmental organizations. Few art centers occupy such inspiring natural settings as the Gualala Arts Center÷it is an ideal place to showcase an exhibit such as this. The Environmental Art Show is sure to become a popular annual event. The opening reception for the artists will be on Saturday, September 18, from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. The show will remain up through October 10. View photos from this exhibit! |
