Exhibit 1: A collaborative exhibition bringing together the whimsical found object sculptures of Jody Silver with Arlė Sklar-Weinstein’s vibrant fiber-photomontage. In this exhibit, these two artists demonstrate the exchange of ideas to create a dialogue between materials that inform, challenge and expand each other’s working process. The climax of this dialogue is reached in a playful installation in which both artists’ work physically interacts with each other. Exhibit 2: An exhibition featuring a selection of the David Dunlop’s recent oil paintings, showcasing works that explore his interest in interior and exterior spaces, as well as looking at his interest in the visual phenomena of light, motion and reflection. For this Daytime Emmy Award winning artist, painting is about making poetry. As poetry his paintings offer the sensual experiences through blurred ambiguity and suggestion.
