Upstairs Artspace
in Tryon, NC, Presents Two Group Exhibitions
The Upstairs Artspace
in Tryon, NC, launches the fall art season with two major exhibitions
including, New Perspectives: Artists of Abstract Alliance
and Child: Being and Remembering, both on view from Sept.
11 through Oct. 24, 2009.
Perspectives introduces a group of mostly Greenville, SC,
artists who are banded together around a passion for abstract
expression and the desire to inform the public about the most
defining art movement of modern times. The artists are Jane
Doyle, Philip Gott, Diana Gurri, Patricia Kilburg, Barbara Stitt
and Carole Tinsley.
Child presents the delightful, curious, fun, whimsical, scary and sad elements of childhood - in the present, in dreams and in memory. The impressive range of art includes narratives of girls swinging and jumping for joy, boys gone fishing, a mother's reflections on her first born. There are beautiful images of embryos, innovative toy objects, hilarious creatures of a child's imagination. The artists are Connie Bostic, Linda Larsen, Jennifer Lipsey, all from Asheville, NC; Diane Kilgore Condon of Greenville, SC; Jennifer Gilomen and Barbara Schreiber from Charlotte, NC; Blair Martin of Tryon; and Doug McAbee from Spartanburg, SC.
