In this collection of paintings, artist JOAN MCNAMARA explores familiar places with a new intimacy.  The surface is pierced as she dives into the water and swims through the reeds and rocks, COMING UP FOR AIR in the sun, then resuming the search.   The essence of an image is revealed with a clear voice.  Space is defined with a quick line, gesture, and the application of paint with large strokes of color.  Repetition of circles, lines and planes are stretched overlapped, juggled and manipulated to create visual vibrations that are uniquely personal.

May 30th - June 21st 

In the First Prize winning painting "Kitchen Story," Katherine Kurtz captures a sense of the sadness of childhood. Set in a kitchen as a toddler might view it, the vibrant reds and pinks of the painting are expressively countered by the scraffiti used to suggest both the figure of the child and an undefined mystery. Of 212 entries submitted to GoggleWorks, 79 works were accepted into the show and juried for prizes.

Kaleidoscope: Annual Associate Members Show

Each artistic endeavor is a microcosm of ideas and shapes and colors, paradoxically limitless beyond its own borders. It evolves with time, with angle of tilt, with eye of the beholder.  Come join Associate Members of the 3rd Street Gallery as we explore the unbounded potentials of Kaleidoscope.

We were happy to finally get to see the studio of Leah Reynolds last week. We've been meaning to do it for quite some time now. We have been amazed by her work. There is such a sense of wonder when you walk through it. Check out this short vid we shot while visiting.

We're happy to announce that Leah will be having a solo show at 110 CHURCH. More details to come.
