Figures in Motion at Verner Gallery in Charleston
The Verner Gallery, the oldest contemporary fine arts gallery in the city of Charleston, SC, is pleased to announce the opening of Figures in Motion, featuring work by Daphne vom Baur and Lonnie Stewart.The exhibit will be on view from Dec. 8 through Jan. 10, 2000.
Daphne vom Baur is well known in SC having
been active in the arts community in Charleston and showing at
the Gibbes Museum of Art as well as the SC State Museum in Orangeburg,
SC.
Stewart will be showing original block prints and monotypes of
the Lowcountry's well known creature, the palmetto bug. This amusing
series gives new meaning to the word portrait. Stewart is a renowned
portraitist in oil and bronze, currently working on a bust of
Ronald Reagan for the Reagan Museum.
The gallery is also showing for the first time works by Paul Bertholet and Lese Corrigan. Works by these artists focus on the Lowcountry landscape and architecture. Bertholet is a Virginia based artist who travels exensively to paint and Corrigan is a Charlestonian who gains inspiration from her birthplace.
Celebrating contemporary, traditional as well
as historical works of art, as Elizabeth O'Neill Verner and the
other Charleston Renaissance artists did earlier this century,
the Verner Gallery is inviting the world to share in our local
beauty and artists' interpretation of it.
