GREGG CAUDELL

 

JULY 16 — AUGUST 13, 2010

Opening Reception: Friday, July 16 at 6 p.m.

 

Artist, Gregg Caudell's connection to horses is both spiritual and material.  Gregg has worked draft horses logging and farming for more than 30 years in the Big Bend Country of Eastern Washington.  He shares this intimate knowledge of working the land through his paintings. "Like the big horses I work with, I paint big.  Big canvas, big color, big horses and the big country of the Big Bend."

NANCY HATHAWAY

 

JULY 16 — AUGUST 13, 2010

Opening Reception: Friday, July 16 at 6 p.m.

 

 

Nancy Hathaway's works in sculpture and mixed media present a humorous and provocative investigation of the duality of human experience — intellect verses instinct, nurture versus nature.  Throughout her work, Hathaway's use of humor belies the more serious undertones of the work, marking the absurd underpinnings of common cultural assumptions, while questioning the synthetic construction of gender roles, cultural expectations and norms.

 

Featured artwork: Untitled No. 1, mixed media, Nancy Hathaway
