We’ll be heading to see:
Sarah Awad: Instruments of Culture
Museums appear as tombs, empty and forlorn with ancient busts lying abandoned on the floor, in the California artist’s new collection of rich oil paintings in pastels and grays, now on display at James Harris Gallery. Opening reception Sept 1, 6-8pm. Thru Oct 8.
New Work by Michael Brophy
Known for his richly textured Northwest landscapes, the Portland painter brings in a human element—workers in the Field, or men eyeing an Explosion on the horizon—in his latest pieces on display at G. Gibson Gallery. Opening reception Sept 1, 6-8pm. Thru Oct 8.
Kelly Vivanco: Where Colors Grow
Woodland creatures and auburn-haired maidens with big doe eyes populate the SoCal artist’s new paintings—scenes as alternately whimsical and dark as a Lemony Snicket story. Now at Flatcolor Gallery. Opening reception Sept 1, 5-9pm.
Last chance to see… Beauty and Bounty: American Art in an Age of Exploration at Seattle Art Museum. It closes September 11.
