Postwar Modernism of the West

admin — Sun, 13 Nov 2011 00:22:52 +0000

Calabi Gallery proudly presents Postwar Modernism of the West 2011. This exhibition will showcase works created after World War II, when a fresh new spirit arose from the ashes of the Great Depression and the most horrific war of them all. The immediate post war years are just a starting point – while the works from 1945 – 1950 are justly celebrated as a turning point in art history, the later works created by these artists as they continued to evolve have often been forgotten as the critics moved on to the latest “isms.” Postwar Modernism of the West will open Saturday, November 12^th with an opening reception during the Downtown Petaluma Second Saturday ArtWalk from 3-7pm.

We will show works from 1945 – 1985, mostly abstract, by artists including Clinton Adams, Ella Alluisi, Valenti Michael Angelo, Paul Beattie, Karl Benjamin, Eugene Berman, Dorr Bothwell, Hans Burkhardt, Jean Charlot, Ed Corbett, Katherine Skeele Dann, Roy De Forest, Francis DeErdely, Claire Falkenstein, Faralla, Edward Hagedorn, Charles H. Howard, John Langley Howard, John Ihle, Ynez Johnston, Walter Kuhlman, Seymour Locks, Mary Fuller McChesney, Robert McChesney, Knud Merrild, Marion G. Messinger, Mary Bates Neubauer, Irving Norman, Nathan Oliveira, Harold Persico Paris, Mildred Rackley, Jacques Schnier, Louis Siegriest, Hassel Smith, Antonio Sotomayor, Jim Spitzer, Juliette Steele, Jan Stussy, Seymour Tubis, Julius Wasserstein, June Wayne, Erwin J. Weidele, William Wiley, Zev, and more.

Beyond Borders

admin — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 21:35:00 +0000

Calabi Gallery is pleased to present our new show inspired by Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15 – October 15) and Petaluma’s annual citywide celebration of The Day of the Dead. In addition to art produced south of the border, we are also including art from other parts of the world as well as art made by immigrants to this country, Native Americans, and American expatriates. Of course, any survey of diversity in the arts is incomplete without inclusion of artists who worked outside of the mainstream regardless of their point of origin. While we celebrate the unique contributions of diverse cultures, let us not forget that we are all one and that national borders are artificial boundaries. We ask you to join us in this exploration of diversity and unity. Beyond Borders will open on Saturday, September 10, and can be enjoyed as part of the Petaluma Second Saturday Art Walk, from 4-7pm. We will also host a reception on Sunday the 11th from 2-5pm. The show will continue through the first week of November.

Artists include: Akira Arita, Paul Beattie, Warren Bellows, Eugene Berman, Francisco Bores, Carl Oscar Borg, Hans Gustav Burkhardt, Benjamin Canas, T. C. Cannon, Jean Charlot, Charles Caryl Coleman, Bill Cutler, Francis deErdely, Holly Downing, Victor Duena, Roy Forkum, James Ford Grant, J. T. Gody, Karen Green, Oswaldo Guayasamin, Edward Hagedorn, Alexander Harrison, Art Hazelwood, John Ihle, Mary Jarvis, Ynez Johnston, Alfred Jones, Gene Kloss, Shiko Kobayashi, Bertha Landers, Alexander Francois Loemans, Mary Fuller McChesney, Robert Person McChesney, Michael McMillan, Émile René Ménard, Leopoldo Mendez, Emmanuel Catarino Montoya, Karima Muyaes, Irving Norman, Maud Oakes, Pablo O’Higgins, Carol Peek, Henri Pfeiffer, Mina Pulsifer, Arturo Rivera, Noel Rockmore, James Milton Sessions, Louis B.

From Landscape to Mindscape

admin — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 20:25:24 +0000

The classic landscape has been a mainstay of fine art for centuries, but continues to be a viable form of expression when created with inspiration. Landscape has also long been used as a springboard for abstract art, a distillation of the feeling of place. And then there are the landscapes of the mind, those hidden places in the dark recesses of the artist’s imagination. These visions may be unique, but often strike a chord of recognition, just as a traditional landscape does. As usual, the exhibition includes a variety of fabulous artists of the present and past. Please join us for this voyage of discovery! Our From Landscape to Mindscape opening reception will be held Sunday, March 20th, from 2 to 5pm.

Artists include: Berenice Abbott, John Annesley Jr., Andrea Bacigalupa, Doug Ballou, Genevieve Barnhart, Raymond Barnhart, Paul Beattie, Warren Bellows, Eugene Berman, Carl Oscar Borg, Dorr Bothwell, Ray Boynton, Wynn Bullock, T.
