Examining the Fine Print

Lithographs. Serigraphs. Monographs. And more. The art of printmaking is on the gallery walls.

In the simplest of terms, it's all about transferring an image from one surface to another.  But, the endless possibilities of the print - line, color, form -begin and end with the artist.  Examining the Fine Print features the work of four contemporary printmakers:                   Laura Brown (Minneapolis, MN),                                                                            CathyJean Clark (Neillsville, WI),                                                                                   Jayne Reid Jackson (Madison, WI) and                                                                                 Kathleen Kuchar (Hays, KS).

People, Places, Plants, Paint.

 LocFaces and facades.   Locations and Locals.  People to see and places to be. Paint is the vehicle for these artists; people, plants, and places are the destination.  Leonard Nagler (Appleton), Nelson Reinhardt (Cincinnati), and Ann Singsaas (Stevens Point) show us how paint translates into a person, place, or plant in three distinctly different styles.

Refigured

We We have Refigured our infamous In the Flesh exhibits. Organic form and movement are expressed in drawings and sculpture.  Human forms come alive in the sculptural work of Nila Petty.  Karla Mirick’s drawings utilize emotion and energy to evoke emotional reactions. This is a “body” of work you won’t want to miss!

This exhibit will include turned, carved, and hand-built artworks created from felled trees that grew in Marathon Park. Art for sale will raise funds for CVA and Marathon County Parks Foundation.
