Jerald Melberg Gallery in Charlotte, NC, Features Works by Paul Jenkins & Alice Ballard Munn
Jerald Melberg Gallery in Charlotte, NC, will be featuring two new exhibits featuring Paul Jenkins: Paintings and Watercolors, and Alice Ballard Munn: Recent Sculpture. The two exhibits will be on view through Mar. 29, 2003.
Paul Jenkins
Jerald Melberg Gallery welcomes Paul Jenkins to Charlotte with his first solo exhibition at the gallery. A contemporary of Jean Dubuffet and other American artists living in Paris in the 1950s, Jenkins' work represents the inventive spirit and energy of post-World War II abstraction. Greatly influenced by Jackson Pollack and Mark Rothko, Jenkins is famous for his unusual method of pouring paint directly onto the canvas, as well as for pure, prismatic color fields.
Jenkins has been honored with over one hundred and sixty solo exhibitions in galleries and museums all over the world. His work can be found in virtually every major museum collection from the United States to Europe to Japan, including the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York; the National Museum of American Art and the National Gallery in Washington, DC; and the Tate Gallery and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, among many others.
Alice Ballard
Munn
Jerald Melberg Gallery is pleased to present its fourth solo exhibition for Alice Ballard Munn's beautiful works in clay demonstrating a longtime relationship with, and mastery of, the medium. She expertly models white earthenware into elegant and sensuous natural forms. Munn's work has been exhibited in over thirty museum and gallery exhibitions and can be found in numerous collections including the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, DC, and the Mint Museum of Craft + Design in Charlotte.
A native of Florence, SC, Munn received a BS in Design and a MA in Painting from the University of Michigan. While working as an artist and teacher for over thirty years, Munn has traveled extensively and studied in such far off lands as Macedonia and India. After living in Anchorage, Alaska for several years, Munn currently resides in Greenville, SC, and serves as Instructor of Ceramics at the SC Governor's School for the Arts and Humanities.
