Bonsack Gallery: Friday, 5 January 2018

Langton Kitchen - 2, 2017, acrylic, 6x12"

The Bonsack Gallery at John Burroughs School will feature “Light + Dark (inside),” an exhibit of paintings by Sole Van Emden, from Friday, January 5, through Wednesday, February 7. All are invited to an opening reception from 5:30 to 7:30 pm on Friday, January 5.

Van Emden, who paints images from her surroundings, is specifically inspired by strong light raking across surfaces and through space. The artist says, “I am drawn to the drama and the sense of volume created by the stark contrast between light and dark, whether across a child’s face, a still life or an urban scene.”

Regular gallery hours are 8 am to 6:30 pm, weekdays. The exhibit is free to the public.
