We are delighted to announce the exhibit “Place as Landscape/Place as Concept: Contemporary Enameling in the U.S,” from January 15 – March 8, 2019.

Please join us for the opening reception on Saturday, February 2 at 2pm.

Mounted in conjunction with Richmond Arts Center, the exhibit examines the idea of place from an American perspective.

These works in enamel–by established and emerging artists alike, using a range of traditional and experimental techniques–explore place as as a way of understanding who we are. By turns complex, conflicted, melancholy, and beautiful, these images and objects show us our country as well as ourselves.

This exhibition expands upon the American showcase presented at BLAZE: International Contemporary Enamel Exhibition at the National Taiwan Craft Research and Development Institute in Taipei (May-August, 2018).

Artists: Ken Bova, Harlan Butt, Katy Cassell, Kat Cole, Helen Elliott, Danielle Embry, Greg Flint, Kristina Glick, Gretchen Goss, Janly Jaggard, Sarah Loch-Test, Sharon Massey, Cynthia Miller, Pat Musick, Gail Reid, Rene Roberts, Averill Shepps, Jan Smith, Judy Stone, Don Viehman, Carly Wright
