My wife Kim and two other artists have a show opening this Friday evening at the gallery of the Art Alliance of Central Pennsylvania in Lemont, Pennsylvania. The show has nothing to do with riding save should you use the event as a destination for a fine fall ride. I’m not sure how many readers are close enough but if you are stop by. Central Pennsylvania is a fine place to ride.
Here is the important information:
Art Alliance Gallery
818 Pike Street
Lemont, Pennsylvania
RECEPTION: Friday, October 24 from 7-9pm
SHOW: Saturday and Sunday, October 24 and 25 from Noon to 5pm
“RHAPSODY IN GLUE” EXHIBIT AT ART ALLIANCE GALLERY
Lemont, Pa. — Artists Ruth Kempner, Kim Dionis and Karen Deutsch will present collage and mixed media in their show “Rhapsody in Glue” on October 25 and October 26 from noon to 5:00 p.m. at the Art Alliance Gallery, 818 Pike Street in Lemont. The Opening Reception on Friday, October 24 from 7 to 9 p.m. is free and open to the public.
The three artists approach their work differently and have very distinctive styles. They use a range of media, materials and techniques, combining oils, acrylics and watercolor with found materials, such as magazines, newsprint and ephemera. Materials may be transformed–scratched, burned, bleached or otherwise–or exposed to forces of nature, ultimately creating a new kind of work.
Kempner received a fine arts degree from Cooper Union and worked as a textile designer in New York City before settling in Pennsylvania. She has exhibited in major shows in the tri-state area and teaches experimental technique at the Art Alliance. She exhibits work locally at the Gallery Shop in Lemont and Artisan Connection.
Dionis received a master of fine arts from Cornell University and published stories and news articles before shifting focus to the visual arts. She’s received awards for her work, including a Pennsylvania Council on the Arts Fellowship. Her collages have appeared in juried shows.
Deutch earned a fine arts degree from Brooklyn College and spent years painting while running an Internet book business. She recently switched to collage because of the freedom of expression it offers.
