Theatre Art Galleries in High Point, NC, is offering several new exhibitions including: Connections: New Works by Beatrice Schall, Rosie G. Thompson and Adele Wayman, on view in the Main Gallery; Conserving Our Heritage: A Painterly Exploration of Piedmont Land Conservancy Sites, on view in Gallery B; Art That Tells A Story, on view in the Kaleidoscope Youth Gallery; and the Annual High Point Fine Art Guild's Fall Juried Show, on view in the Hallway Gallery. All shows will be on view through Dec. 17, 2005.
Beatrice Schall, a Greensboro, NC, resident, is active in the art community. She is a board member of the Weatherspoon Art Museum, and has been a visiting instructor at Guilford College and UNC-Chapel Hill. Schall's work explores the cyclical dynamic between nature and human experience. Using drawing, painting, and occasionally, found objects from nature, she creates works that allow the viewer to engage and interpret her art with their own memories and experiences. Schall states that her work, "is about the power of connections... my connection to Nature... and my attempt to connect to the viewer."
Adele Wyman, a painter from Brown Summit, NC, is also inspired by the cycles of Nature. The rhythm of seasons, weather , and the natural patterns of foliage, light, and texture play an important role in both her representational and abstract works. Wyman is a Hege professor of Art at Guilford College, and has traveled in England, France, Greece, Israel, Canada, and the US, as well as studied in both Italy and Japan.
Travel is also a major part of Rosie G. Thompson's career as an artist. She has studied in parts of Asia and Europe, as well as Morocco and Lebanon, and has exhibited in Europe and various areas of the US, including New York City. Thompson's work ranges from large scale to intimate, and focuses on humanism and the experience of blending the boundaries of the mundane, brutal, and sacred. She resides in Hillsborough, NC.
Art That Tells A Story features works of art with stories, from Katherine Gavitt's students at Shadybrook Elementary School.
