EAST GALLERY



 

In the East Gallery, the work of eleven local artists are presented as a play on the spirit of the Nick Lowe song, familiarized by Elvis Costello, in an invitational exhibition titled: What's So Funny About Peace, Love and Understanding. Sanchez Art Center Executive Director Cindy Abbott has expressed her appreciation to the artists who responded to her request to share art as an antidote to the pain, misery and anxiousness being felt throughout our country and abroad. The show offers light and harmony with a focus on peace and finding the helpers who fill our communities with love.

 

 

Through the visual language of stacking figures together, without strict adherence to gravity or scale, Misha Flores' Interdependence I, II, III (three separate though related oil and acrylic works on board) is a playful and joyful antidote to the constricting emotions of greed and selfishness, showing that all individual beings are necessary for all to rise.

 

 

Figurative artist Kevin Lance Daniels comments about his work, "Art, in the end, is a relentless impulse to understand life and connect with others. In Road Trip (oil on canvas), Daniels offers us the shared experience of connection both between two individuals across generations, as well as in their relationship to the environment as they encounter the beach and sea.

 

 

Mary Bier is showing four of her intricate mandalas, providing an opportunity to pause and meditate on our individual place in the universe, while reflecting on the wisdom gained when we respect and care for each other. With Gazing Pool, (midfired-cone 6, white stoneware, glaze, acrylic paint) Eliza Wilson Thomas, invites viewers to find their own relationship to the work, while tapping into universal human experiences.

 

 

The public is invited to a Community Event and Conversation with the artists on Saturday, March 14, beginning at 3:30 pm. We look forward to coming together in peace, love and harmony.

Sanchez Art Center is located at 1220 Linda Mar Blvd in Pacifica, about a mile east of Highway 1. Following opening night, the galleries are open Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, 1–5 pm, and by appointment, through Mar 22

The opening, talks, and gallery visits are free as part of the center's focus on "Creating Community through Art".
