The works are all exploring Abstract art and the enjoyment of making and observing it. What makes abstract work abstract? It may be loosely rooted in reality—or not at all. In some cases, the artist is guided by the medium itself and by the pleasure of technique, as seen in the work of Gardner, Haddad, Ho, Kiil, and Timm, echoing the legacy of Abstract Expressionism. Here, the medium leads and the artist listens. In other cases, abstraction begins with a real-world reference—a view in nature, or from above, or across a vista—and is transformed through technique and perception, as in the work of Letarte, Renzetti and Tudor. Abstraction can also be driven by emotion, as in Pitoscia’s work. Nicoll’s pieces emerge from the dried remains of jelly plate palettes, becoming more abstract than the intended originals. In the collages of Daniels and Milon, both the selected paper fragments and the cut-out remnants carry equal importance, each finding its place in the creative process. In all cases the exploration and process make for a wonderful journey. This diverse group show features: Beverley Daniels, Deidrie Gardner, Jane Haddad, Angela Ho, Kristina Kiil, Michelle Letarte, Carole Milon, Anne Parravano Nicholl, Morag Pitoscia, Lauren McKinley Renzetti, Mark Timm, & Elizabeth Tudor
