Featuring artwork by Brian Taylor at BTs Art Studio

Artist Statement: My art for me is about the relaxation and stress relief therapy. In the acrylic pours I do, I love the freedom and the unpredictability of the piece. The flow and fluidity are relaxing to me. It is always interesting to see the pattern and cells develop and then decide how I can influence the paint on the canvas. I can use the exact same colors and ratios and the paint will react and move differently with each painting. When creating with my other medias I find I do not have a distinctive style, one maybe more abstract or impressionistic than the next. I hope you enjoy the presentation of my diverse works.

Exhibition Hours: 7pm-9pm

Featuring artwork by Jodi Lightner

This large-scale drawing and installation solo exhibition is based on constructs of architecture described in works of literature and re-imagines these structures as malleable to sociological patterns and habits. One of the pieces of literature used in the exhibition is Invisible Cities. This work of fiction by Italo Calvino, takes poetic license to describe a visitor’s perceptive experience while traveling in unknown cities. Though many of the descriptions are impractical, improbable, and impossible, they depict places with atmosphere, attitudes and activity, each with a specific theme and distinct pattern. And each city contains all the same elements - dweller, habitats, and activities - but each one is unique in its set of patterns, which makes it distinct, impressionable, and categorical.

Full exhibition will run through January 3, 2020.

Exhibition Hours: 5:00-7:00 p.m.

Featuring artwork by Tim Stone

Friends University will host a First Friday gallery reception for artist, Tim Stone. The reception will take place in the Riney Fine Arts Gallery in Riney Fine Arts Center Nov. 1 from 5-7 p.m.

Tim Stone’s work consists of depicting spaces that are inspired by the ordinary and triggered by the mundane. “There is a constant tension between the ordinary and the superlative and between natural and artificial color. This occurrence is true in moments that I experience, so it is truthful in the scenes I paint,” said Stone. Stone has recently expanded the process of his work by pushing its boundaries towards installation, using both canvas and tape as a tool in his artwork.

Full exhibition will run through February 1, 2020.
