Local Artist Community Reflects on 2020 at Angels Gate Cultural Center

re-adaptations, re-envisioning art and connection

Angels Gate Cultural Center presents a new art exhibition, re-adaptations,

re-envisioning art and connection by Angels Gate Studio Artists opening virtually April 24, on view through June 12.

re-adaptations explores the necessary reinventions of our daily lives resulting from a shared pandemic experience. The exhibition will open with a virtual reception April 24.  The reception is open to the public with registration information available at angelsgateart.org. Gallery viewing appointments will open April 29, with information on how to reserve an appointment available at angelsgateart.org

“re-adaptations not only shows the talent in our local artist community at Angels Gate Cultural Center, but also demonstrates the resilience of artists to adapt, understand, and ultimately reinvent themselves when faced with challenges.” -Amy Eriksen, Executive Director, Angels Gate Cultural Center

The artists in re-adaptations explore the ways in which monumental events have created a seismic shift in how we connect – with each other, our daily routines, and inner-self. Society has had to reinvent itself to adapt. We have had to relearn and re-examine what’s necessary, and most importantly, reconnect with those relationships whose significance has only become more apparent.

Displaying a diversity in approaches, re-adaptations includes elaborate sculptural installation to delicate, layered drawing in nuanced color. Representing over fifty studio artists at Angels Gate Cultural Center, re-adaptations features the work of Phoebe Barnum, Delora Bertsch, Lynn Doran, Beth Elliott, Henry Krusoe, Vanessa Madrid, Tim Maxeiner, W.S. Milner, Lowell Nickel, Michelle Seo, Nancy Voegeli-Curran and Ann Weber.

Time: 2 to 3:30 p.m. April 24 PST.
