“2016 Artist in Residence,” The Hornet
Lesley Dill’s spring residency at the Fullerton College art gallery alters popular conceptions of conventional art by not being simple paintings hung on walls.
Lisa Sanditz: Water and Bugs
Working from location, memory and sometimes imagination, Lisa Sanditz composes vibrantly colored landscapes and nature-inspired works that explore the complex coexistence of mankind and natural forces.
Wayne Gonzales
Wayne Gonzales is a self-described analytic painter. His work addresses the pliancy of photography and its relationship to history and memory. He culls source images online and from his personal collection, and dissects them to understand the various physical and emotional layers within before reassembling their valued parts on canvas.
Amy Feldman
Amy Feldman creates seemingly simple, large-scale gray abstractions notable for their visual impact and droll sense of humor. She explores how images and signs are perceived and distilled, and then draws attention to humanness in her work through its iconic language and subtle variation.
Cheryl Donegan
Cheryl Donegan is an American conceptual artist especially known for her video works that address issues of art politics, particularly the clichés of the female body. At the invitation of Jim Richard, Donegan presents two videos, Head (1993) and Lieder (2000), both exercises in role-playing and exposure.
Jim Richard: Darn That Dream
Darn That Dream is Jim Richard’s ninth exhibition with the gallery. Featured are small- to large-scale works rendered in Flashe, oil and gouache, on canvas, linen and paper. The works, created over the last few years, continue the artist’s remarkable series of paintings that depict high style domestic interiors flecked with period furniture, kitsch objects, and works of art usually with a modernist flavor.
“Anything Goes,” The New Yorker
The New York artist Cheryl Donegan exhibits pacesetting works at the New Museum spanning twenty-three years.
