West Contemporary
Theodore Waddell, solo show of new works. Waddell's
depictions of the vast landscape, horses, and cattle are
not typical of most Western art due to the influence of
the abstract expressionist movement on his practice.
Waddell's solo exhibition will include the
monumental painting Vincent's Angus #4, 1995, as well as
works on paper and recent oil paintings.
Through July 9
Abend Gallery
Austin Howlett solo exhibition. "Six years ago, I coined the
term "Terra Human" as a name for my newly emerging series of
paintings depicting humans seamlessly merged with nature. I
began this series to explore human emotions through their
connection with nature.... The complexity of the human spirit,
at times, needs the support of its natural surroundings in order
to find balance and peace. My paintings ask viewers to do the
terrifying work of addressing our deepest emotions so that we
can better understand ourselves and shift our outlook on the
world to a more empathetic viewpoint."

Artist Reception, 6-9pm
New works by Michael Hedges and Karine Leger. Hedges:
"My paintings are a synthesis of color, line, form and
texture. They begin as a problem of two or more color
relationships to be explored through form. The form is
loosely defined by a drawing that acts as a skeleton and ecto-skeleton both beneath and above the finished work.
The application of the media to the painting surface is
of utmost importance to me." Leger: Deeply connected to
her personal life, superimposed layers of images and
transparent acrylics has its own story to tell. The
shapes seem anthropomorphic at times, reflecting that
constant desire for balance. But they only reveal just
enough, allowing plenty of room for the viewers to find
their own interpretation or story.
Through August 20
Plinth Gallery
New works by ceramic artist Lauren Owens. Since geometry
has been part of every civilization to define spatial
reasoning, it was the pervasive use in modern design
that peaked Owens' interest. The angles, lines, and
shapes matched with chromatic colors of the mid-century
was her Ah-Ha moment. "I design useful objects that
embrace the repetitions of form with clean lines and
crisp angles. I make my own models and molds and I slip
cast the pieces using a cone 6 white ware clay body
pigmented with ceramic stains."
Through July 30

Abend Gallery
A collector preview of Calvin Lai's upcoming solo
exhibition. All works are available
online for purchase now. Artist Statement: "I was
born an all-or-nothing kind of guy, and though I've
learned the nuance of grey areas I'm still fascinated
with extremes. Perhaps it's this that causes me to
viscerally feel the battle between opposite forces,
something, in this day and age, we are all suffering
through. The struggle we face today is knocking all of
us off balance, and everyone seems to be scrambling to
regain their equilibrium. This search is the foundation
for Seeking Balance, a new series of 8 paintings that
explores the figure in order to find that point between
extremes. Seeking Balance is a creative journey towards
that place between extremes and a state of mind where
balance exists. Every piece I finished helped me get
closer to remaining in that place. Every piece is a
testament to its existence on and off the picture plane.

Modus Operandi, featuring: Deidre Adams, Blair Vaughn-Gruler,
Ben Strawn, Melana Bontrager, Laura Guese, and Melanie
Grein. Every creator possesses a unique artistic
language that works concurrently with their own medium
and inspirations. MODUS OPERANDI presents artists who
utilize this dialect to dictate the outcome of their
work, allowing spontaneity, intuition and process to be
the driving forces in their creations. Working within
their own subconscious and guidelines, these artists
focus on the creative process rather than the end
result, thus finding freedom in the journey.
Through September 10

is an oil painter based in Taos and Santa Fe, NM.
