SUMMARY:Likeness
DESCRIPTION:Group Exhibit of Portraits juried by Carl Grauer. \nPortraits are forever. They capture the likeness of the human subject they are portraying. It may be through a visual similarity with the sitter or the ephemeral essence of the subject. Portrait artists bring all kinds of intangible aspects to their work. The fact that we can look at a painting done hundreds of years ago and feel a kinship with the sitter\, in our contemporary moment\, is a testament to the power of portraiture. \nOn View: December 20\, 2024 – January 26\, 2025 \nReception:  Saturday\, January 11\, 2025 3:00-5:00 pm \nReceptions are always free and open to the public. \nGallery hours:  Friday\, Saturday and Sundays 12:00-5:00 pm

SUMMARY:Carl Grauer\,  Portraits: The Art of Looking
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibit of portraits by Carl Grauer.  On View: December 20\, 2024 – January 26\, 2025.  Gallery hours:  Friday\, Saturday and Sundays 12:00-5:00 pm  Reception:  Saturday\, January 11\, 2025 3:00-5:00 pm.  Receptions are always free and open to the public. \nStatement and Bio \nCarl Grauer is a painter based in Poughkeepsie\, NY in the beautiful Hudson Valley. He explores the construction of identity\, and how to memorialize objects and individuals through a contemporary documentarian approach to painting. He focuses on the documentation of time\, memory\, and imagination and how he may occupy the past\, present\, and future through these aspects. He is interested in the observation of that evolution of time and how it affects the artifice of the presentation of self\, and finally\, how by creating a painting\, the art acquires an identity and timeline of its own. \nBorn in rural Kansas\, Carl Grauer was raised in a town of 700 people and a graduating class of sixteen. He had a great aptitude of studies as well as art from a very young age but with a limited exposure to the arts. Following high school graduation he left to complete his degrees in human biology and his MFA from the University of Kansas and the University of Michigan\, respectively. Eventually moving to New York City he found solace in the arts and culture in abundance. He spent two years in London studying figurative and portrait painting with several studios and garnered success showing work internationally\, including exhibiting with the Royal Society of Portrait Painters in London\, being shortlisted for the 2015 Wells Art Contemporary Award in the UK. Carl Grauer is a painter based in Poughkeepsie\, NY in the beautiful Hudson Valley. \n
