Impact

Artists: Peter L. Johnson, Michael Kareken and David Lefkowitz
Reception: July 16, 6:00 – 8:00pm
Artist Talk: August 12, 7:00pm

The work by artists Peter L. Johnson, Michael Karekan, and David Lefkowitz will be exploring society’s affect on nature in “Impact”. Johnson’s strikingly abstract photographs draw us in with their beautiful colors and compositions and then stun us with the subject matter. Karekan’s lush oil paintings reveal the dark side as well as the consequences of our consumption while Lefkowitz takes a somewhat humorous yet nonetheless poignant look at the “civilized” world in relation to its natural environment.

The WARM Mentor/Protégé Program pairs serious women artist in the early stage of their career with a professional woman artist who mentors her for a two-year term. The culmination of the program is a joint Mentor/Protégé exhibition which features work created during their two years working together. The Bloomington Theatre and Art Center is honored to host this year’s Mentor/Protégé exhibition, featuring the work of twelve mentors and twenty one protégés. |

Swooning The Swagger
Dates: July 29– September 19, 2010
Artist: Kate Van Cleve
Kate Van Cleve’s work is more in line with that of a story teller. Using color, composition, and symbolism Van Cleve draws the viewer in to share something of herself based on personal and social commentary. The figurative work is often composed in the tradition of a fable where animals and nature inhabit the pictures and play a role as symbols and metaphor. Though the paintings often explore the artists various roles in life; as mother, daughter, wife, sister, friend, artist, and world citizen, Van Cleve hopes that viewers look at the work “with some abandon and embrace the mystery while relishing the story and making it their own.” |

Digital Dreams of Life
Dates: September 23– November 14, 2010
Artist: Jes Lee
Reception: September 23, 6:00 – 8:00pm
Jes Lee feels that in life we encounter a barrage of stimulation; visual and audible, analog and digital. The stimulation affects and influences the way we fell about, relate to and remember situations, places and events. In her photographs, using both digital and film; combining new media and old, Lee attempts to record this stimulation in her own compilations to create a new view of lives; past, present, and future. In doing so, Lee creates unique layered images that challenge the viewer to look further and discover a memory from the past, or an inkling of what the future might hold. |
