Martha Gipson’s new body of work merges expressionist abstraction with figurative and landscape references. She disregards or distorts aspects of the subject, conveying emotional intensity, movement, elusive energy, and the struggle and pining for beauty and eternal light. Opening reception will feature live music by Pete Tee Blue, hors d'oeuvres and wine. The exhibition is on view through August 12.
