May 4th - June 1, 2013 From Mindy Alper’s deep oceans of emotional & psychological content, flow stunningly personal & hauntingly realistic sculptures. Alper’s works do much of the talking for the many things she cannot or does not say through words. Coexisting in the remarkably intimate sculptures, whose faces emote heavy or tranquil feelings, are often subtle flickers of triumphant colors, or delicate movements of flight. Though darkness can be said to be the source from which her works begin, beauty is where her work ultimately delivers us. In the West Gallery: Marcia Roberts If Alpers’ content comes from within, Marcia Roberts’ subject matter comes from without. Roberts continues her investigation of light and more specifically, the various combinations of color and how it affects the way light is perceived under different conditions. The paintings contain carefully conjured abstract color planes which house a subtle light source at times within them and at times as the planes themselves. Roberts’ softly seductive paintings, whisper the poems of the breaking dawn or the soft light gazing through the fog. Photo Credit: Grant Mudford
