Telling Tales

The figure is one of the classic images in paintings, ranging from simple sketches that hone in on the anatomy to large-scale narratives that are relatable or otherworldly. In the April exhibition, The Art of the Figure, at RJD Gallery in Bridgehampton, New York, four artists— Aneka Ingold, Daniela Werneck, Geoffrey Laurence and Tor-Arne Moen—will present artwork that often melds the classic and contemporary. The pieces will dive into age-old techniques, while the stories and themes are often rooted in today’s world.

Southern Traditions

While many of us celebrate a plethora of life moments and holidays throughout the year, Wells Gallery out of South Carolina invites viewers to honor themes of tradition, “a custom passed down from generation to generation,” explains gallery director Emily Wagner. “We have cultural traditions and family traditions, and each contributes to a sense of practice and belonging.”

Art of the Sole

For the past 20 years, artist Adam Port has been creating pop culture and sports art in incredibly precise detail. His style, more known as photorealism, has always been a strong interest for him going back as far as early childhood. The world of sports has also been quite an inspiration for Port’s work, as an avid sporting event attender and also as an athlete.

Animal Instincts

French artist Valéry Vecu Quitard’s love of animals is on full display in his whimsical realistic paintings. His works, which are done in a Trompe l’Oeil style where the portrait of the animal is silhouetted within a hand-painted wall or frame, anthropomorphize any number of creatures from rabbits and birds to mice and tigers. The pieces are typically painted on a smaller scale and are “meant to be a hymn to benevolence, naiveté and bonhomie.”

The ALCHEMIST

Brad Kunkle turns lead into silver and gold for his newest show at Arcadia Contemporary.

Through the Seasons

Layer upon layer of thick oil paints slathered onto the canvas and etched into landscapes charged with energy—these are the paintings of Plein air artist Lynn Boggess. He works solely with palette knives and trowels in his wet-on-wet technique, which gives him the freedom to capture the raw energy of nature as he perceives it, as opposed to getting wrapped up in the unnecessary details.
