PCCA is committed to creating opportunities for artists to exhibit original works. The exhibition season includes approximately six group shows and eight solo exhibits. In addition, PCCA produces exhibition catalogues, artist profiles, and presents public lectures in conjunction with each exhibition. Annually, nearly 250 professional artists participate in exhibitions.
PaintCreekCenter for the Arts presents a group show featuring works by four exceptional artists. Evelyn Bachorski-Bowman, Lynn Galbreath, Cristin Richard and Sioux Trujillo all work in different media, with distinctive, personal approaches to their respective materials.
Evelyn Bachorski-Bowman (Milford, MI) presents her sculpture series “Portraits of a Soul.” This group of emotive sculptures uses raw, textured plaster and encaustic to depict the emotional state of her subject.
Lynn Galbreath (Bloomfield Hills, MI) will present drawings from two bodies of work. “Eccentric Objects” is an ongoing series of mixed media drawings on mylar, set within three dimensional constructions. “Talk” is a series that utilizes graphite, gold leaf and metallic markers on paper, with associated found objects. Both series reference humanitarian and social issues the
artist is concerned with.
Cristin Richard (Detroit, MI) works primarily with hog and sheep casings, creating wearable sculptures and installations that draw on her interest in fashion and the body. Her translucent dress sculptures manage a fine balance between tough and ethereal, eerie and graceful. In discussing her work, she says “the skin-like medium becomes a loaded metaphor which speaks to the human condition, while creating an underlying narrative on materialism and over indulgence.”
Sioux Trujillo (Detroit, MI) will create a fiber based installation that incorporates multi-colored threads, felt, and fiber objects.
Please join us in celebrating these four accomplished artists at an opening reception on Friday, January 20th, 7:00 – 9:00 pm. Admission to the opening and the exhibit are free and open to the public.
PaintCreekCenter for the Arts is proud to present a solo exhibit of photographs by noted Detroit area photographer Kyohei Abe. For this show of minimal landscapes, Abe draws on his background in architecture along with his photographic skills. The works in this series present uncluttered, dream-like environments composed of simple formal elements. There is an implied narrative whose meaning seems just beyond our grasp.
Please join us in welcoming Kyohei Abe at an opening reception on Friday, January 20th from
7:00 – 9:00 pm. Admission to the reception and gallery are free and open to the public.
This exhibit is supported by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs,
the National Endowment for the Arts and the Kresge Foundation.
This exhibit is sponsored by The Athena Group, Rochester, Michigan
