"Murmurs"
Opening Reception: Saturday, July 24 from 7 to 10 p.m.
This exhibit showcases abstract oil paintings by Denise Wellenstein and figurative work by Kimberly Dean. Wellenstein’s paintings are a process of exploration of color that rely on design elements, shapes, composition, contrast and texture to give depth, character and energy to the colors. Dean’s work combines clay and mixed media while using recycled and old materials. Her current work focuses on the worlds of emotion beneath the surface, and the pieces show the interplay between body and spirit, creating a visually awkward moment. This exhibit premieres Saturday, July 24 and runs through August 14.

The Dali picture is to go on loan to Atlanta A famous Salvador Dali painting depicting Jesus on the cross is to go on loan to the US.
The Christ of St John of the Cross will be away from its permanent home at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum in Glasgow for six months from July.
It will be part of a retrospective on the artist's life in Atlanta.
The painting has left the UK six times since it was bought for Glasgow's collection in 1952. Its last outing was to London's National Gallery in 2000.
Kelvingrove will be showing Titian's Diana and Actaeon in its place throughout July.
A conservation team at Glasgow Museums Resource Centre will carry out an examination of the painting before it is shipped to the US.
