Flemish Still Life / Scott Royston Solo Exhibition. "I think of myself as primarily a figurative painter but over the past This is a collaboration of work that is done in a very Dutch, Flemish and Trompe l'oeil style, which is the style I generally paint in. I wanted to include a range of different subject matter ranging from simple still lifes to more complicated Trompe l'oeil pieces to themes that have more deeper meaning. As a Christian, I have been doing some pieces that have a very faith driven theme using metaphor and surrealistic symbolism to convey the story or meaning behind the piece."
Through November 24

Robischon Gallery
Opening Reception, 6- 8pm
Concurrent Solo Exhibitions: Paco Pomet Endings; Painting Walter Robinson Promises, Sculpture; Tom Judd Altered States, Mixed media;  Gary Emrich, DIBS, Video installation; and Terry Maker, Cure All, Sculpture installation. Solo exhibitions featuring artists Paco Pomet (Granada, Spain), Walter Robinson (Santa Fe, NM), Tom Judd (Philadelphia, PA), Gary Emrich (Dever, CO), and Terry Maker (Louisville, CO). The painting, sculpture, mixed media and video installation works on view symbolically address a range of complex historical issues, cultural relationships and conditions still present and challenging in the contemporary world. Touching on a variety of weighty themes and handled in an uncommon, unexpected fashion by the five artists on view, the concurrent exhibitions offer an engaging look at America’s past and present through a socio-political lens with an absurdist sensibility. Painters Pomet and Judd, along with video artist Emrich, take full artistic license with photographic or filmic references of the past, while sculptors Robinson and Maker, carve and cast larger-than-life provocative narrative works. As the artists take stock in this tentative cultural moment – precariously built, yet familiar and rich with potential – overriding questions remain for each in dialogue, “What do we value as global citizens and what kind of world do we seek?

Plinth Gallery
Opening reception from 6-9pm
For our last exhibition of 2021, Plinth Gallery is pleased to present “The Seductive Surface 2.0” This exhibition highlights work from the gallery as well as work from several new ceramic artists that exploit the unlimited possibilities of surface enhancement. Jonathan Kaplan, Plinth Gallery Curator, notes that “Decorative embellishments on pieces in this exhibition range from simple to the highly complex. The 3-dimensional form becomes a canvas; the surface ornamentation strengthens the form; the lushness of glaze, color, and pigment invite touch, use, or inquiry.”
Through December 18

Canaries, a solo exhibition by Brian Mashburn. "Canaries is a series of new oil paintings featuring a variety of relatively common birds, at least familiar to me here in the North Carolina mountains. Except for the Kestrel, all of the birds depicted were observed and photographed from my studio window. Convenience aside, painting what some may call everyday birds is an opportunity to pay close attention to and garner new appreciation for commonplace encounters - which in my opinion, is the essence of birdwatching" - Brian Mashburn

Florescence, a solo exhibition by Aixa Oliveras that unveils a series of paintings focusing on symbolic narratives of rebirth and the feminine experience. Inspired by feminine archetypes, as well as her own cultural experiences, Aixa has created a body of work that explores the sensual and intimate nature of rebirth, as well as the strength of the feminine spirit.“Florescence is the act of blooming - a flower in bloom. In this series of paintings, I explore the aftereffects of reinvention. What happens after you’re metaphorically reborn? How does it feel like to be born anew? My answer to those questions is an undeniable feeling of sensuality, strength, and renewal. It is born out of listening to my intuition as a person who has undergone many changes in her life.In this series of paintings, the flowers represent sensuality and growth. The gold leaf is a symbol of light, and by extension, life. It is a celebration of those things, as well as an encouragement to celebrate and embrace not only the feminine, but our inner strength. -Aixa Oliveras”

Visions West Contemporary
Holiday Show: Over the River and Through the Woods. Become lost in the woods this holiday season and enter the world of contemporary naturalism. Lydia Maria Child’s holiday poem “Over the River and Through the Wood” fills the imagination with images of the festivity found in nature as the narrator journeys through the forest. This multi-generational narrative of the holiday pilgrimage has developed its own meaning in the English lexicon; and “Over the river and through the wood” is now an idiom for becoming “lost”.
