Andreas Kocks January 7 – February 25
German artist, Andreas Kocks, works in massive and meticulously crafted installations of cut paper. Working solely with paper and a limited color palette, Kocks’ forms seek to evoke and balance elements of four artistic genres: the linearity of drawing, the painterly brushstroke, the site-specific element of architecture, and the physicality of sculpture. His works can be seen in museums and private collections in Europe and America.

Betsy Eby March 3 – April 15
Northwest native Betsy Eby finds inspiration in the region’s natural phenomena. Her abstract paintings incorporate a soothing palette and subtly reference wildflowers, flowing water, migratory birds, frost covered leaves, and misty forests. By employing beeswax in her painting process, she slowly builds up the surfaces of her canvases, creating depth and texture that heighten the organic quality of her work. Eby’s paintings have been exhibited widely across the United States and are held in the collections of the Tacoma Art Museum, Tacoma, WA, the Columbus Museum, Columbus, GA, the Georgia Museum of Art, Athens, GA, and several United States Embassies around the world.

Dirk Staschke March 3 – April 15 Dirk Staschke’s work reinterprets Vanitas (“vanity”) still life paintings of 16th century Northern Europe, which recognize the fleeting nature of life and question the futility of earthly pursuits and acquisitions. Using sculptural form instead of paint, Staschke employs a transgressive beauty that contradicts commonly held convictions about what makes something appealing. Playing on the human impulse to own and consume, his work uses symbols of longing to explore the complexities of human desire. His work has been included in the collections at e Birmingham Museum of Art, e Smithsonian, e International Museum of Ceramic Art, among others

Dustin Yellin Dustin Yellin has taken the contemporary art world by storm with his large scale “sculptural paintings”. Yellin adheres clippings, found objects and painted images to sheets of glass, layering the panels into a single unified block, creating stunning three-dimensions collages. e work reflects Yellin’s interest in collecting bizarre objects, and mankind’s dubious efforts to construct himself and improve the world he lives in.

Ethan Murrow
April 21 – June 4
Ethan Murrow uses film and photography to create farcical, theatrical narratives that are then translated into large-scale graphite drawings. ese beautifully rendered drawings focus on characters as outrageous innovators and absurd explorers capturing a sense of adventure, satire, fun and defeat. e absolute confidence and passion of Murrow’s characters are intended to stand in contrast to the possibly dubious outcome of their efforts. Ethan explains, “I both admire and fear this kind of certainty.

Susan Dory June 9 – July 15 Northwest artist Susan Dory uses layers of acrylic paint to create an interplay of depth and translucency. rough a process of under painting and pouring paint that strategically uses elements of color and line, Dory activates each canvas surface. Dory has received both national and local awards including the Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant, the Willard R. Espy Foundation Artist-in-Residence Fellowship and the Behnke Foundation’s Neddy Artist Fellowship.

Angelina Nasso July 28 – September 9
e work of Angelina Nasso, a New York based artist, is inspired by nature. Nasso sites as inspirations: the night air, the sky, the mist, the clouds, the trees, and the withered leaves. As Nasso carefully establishes layers of transparent paint, she creates a surface upon which luminous spots and disks appear to float. Brilliant in color, Nasso’s works employ a vibrant and sensuous richness. Says Nasso of her art: “My imagery occurs within color itself.”

Tony Scherman September 15 – October 28 Tony Scherman is best known for his masterful encaustic techniques, where pigment and wax create lush, textured, and dramatic surfaces. His portraiture and still lifes are carefully imbued with a dream-like intensity and the force of his vision. While Scherman calls upon historical figures and periods, he chooses to embellish his subjects with modern themes— thereby evoking symbolism and deeper meaning. Scherman exhibits internationally and is also featured in various public and corporate collections.

Trimpin November 3 – December 24 Trimpin’s work is an ongoing exploration of the concepts of sound, vision and movement, experimenting with combinations that will introduce the viewer’s senses of perception to a totally new experience. Although Trimpin uses the latest technology available, he works with “natural” elements—water, air, light, fire, etc.—and reconfigures them in new and unusual applications, pushing them to the limits, and beyond, of what we traditionally think of as their role.
