SUMMARY:Color My World: Watercolors by Ellen Joyce-Trayer
DESCRIPTION:Color My World: Watercolors by Ellen Joyce-Trayer \n  \nArtist Statement \nThese works are Experimental Watercolors which I’ve been working on this past decade. It is a form of deconstruction….breaking through edges and form to distort reality. The paint can be dripped\, splashed\, splattered\, glazed\, brushed or pulled on the paper surface. The paper is often manipulated to direct the flow of the paint. Since the results are not always in the artist’s control\, the artist must abandon control and be open to take creative detours as the painting reveals itself. \nUltimately\, it is about creating a successful painting which often means the artist must allow the painting and the paint to inform the final creation. \n  \n\nOn view October 31 – extended to December 28\, 2025\n \nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\,  12 – 5 pm \n  \nImage: Ellen Joyce-Trayer\, Sunset in Africa\, watercolor on paper

SUMMARY:Rosemary Hanson: Home
DESCRIPTION:Rosemary Hanson: Home\n\n“Learning to look” is one of the most fundamental principles for any artist. Intentionally observing what otherwise might be missed in our everyday environment can yield a deeper appreciation when seen through artistic interpretation. It’s so easy to stop noticing the things closest to home because they have become so familiar. But if we stop and change perspective and focus on the little things in our lives\, we can discover beauty and value in what was before mundane. \nOn view September 5 – October 26\, 2025\nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\,  1 – 5 pm \n\nArtist Reception: Saturday\, September 13\, 5 – 7 pm \nJoin us to celebrate the exhibition and meet the artist; small bites and light refreshment will be served. This event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:INTERIORS
DESCRIPTION:INTERIORS\, A National Exhibition Juried by Wayne Lempka\, Art Collections Manager at The Dorsky Museum of Art at SUNY New Paltz\, on view September 5 – October 26\, 2025. \nParticipating artists: Richard Arnold\, Donna Faranda\, Carl Grauer\, Yona Gonen\, Lonna Kelly\, Pat MacDonald\, Karen Maloof\, Dan McCormack\, Emilia Moritz\, Mary-Anne Ramirez\, Steven Rushefsky\, Gerald Wein\, Anna West\, Amanda Wolf \nJUROR’S STATEMENT: \nTo understand this exhibition\, one must first contemplate the definition of the word “interiors”. \nOn a basic level this word refers to the spaces we live in\, a home that has rooms consisting of four walls\, windows and doors. If you ask a child to draw a room interior\, in most cases this is what you will get. However\, the meaning of ‘interiors’ is not an easy concept to isolate as it encompasses a broad sphere of emotional experiences\, sensory perceptions\, memories and feelings of nostalgia. \nThe works selected for this exhibition not only fulfill the basic idea of what an interior is but go beyond this concept due to how each artist approaches these spaces – as seen through unique interior or exterior vantage points. These works are not simply documents of what one holds dear in interior spaces but records a sense of life; a sense of being; and a sense of place. \nTaken as a whole\, this exhibition is meant to be a visual investigation into beauty\, personal narrative\, and memory. These paintings\, mixed media pieces\, and photographs provide one with a sense of humor\, power\, weakness\, and mystery. As a viewer\, you are asked to consider an entire range of visual and emotional experiences that room interiors invoke in each of us and then relate these experiences to one’s personal space. \n– Wayne Lempka \n  \nMeet the JUROR: Wayne Lempka is Art Collections Manager of the Samuel Dorsky Museum of Art at the State University of New York at New Paltz where he is responsible for the care of over 9\,000 objects in the museum’s permanent collection. He has also served as curator at The Dorsky for many exhibitions including Thoughts of Home\, which explored not only how our living environments reflect who we are but how artists use this idea in their creative expression. Prior to his position at The Dorsky\, Mr. Lempka held positions at Storm King Art Center\, the Museum of American Folk Art\, the Cooper-Hewitt National Museum of Design\, (Smithsonian Institute) the Chase Manhattan Bank Corporate Art Program\, The Historic New Orleans Collection and the Barrett Art Center. Mr. Lempka is currently a lecturer in the Department of Art History at Marist University. He has also taught in the Art History Department of SUNY New Paltz. Mr. Lempka holds a BFA degree in Fine Arts and Art History from Pratt Institute\, and a MA in Art History & Museum Studies from New York University. He is currently pursuing his PhD (ABD) at New York University.  \n\nOn view September 5 – October 26\, 2025\nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\,  12 – 5 pm \n\nArtist Reception: Saturday\, September 13\, 5 – 7 pm\n\nJoin us to celebrate the exhibition and meet the artists; small bites and light refreshment will be served. This event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:ART RECEPTION | WRCA Celebrates Surrealism
DESCRIPTION:Swiss Surrealist painter Kurt Seligmann was a world traveler\, who spent his final years in Sugar Loaf NY\, where visitors to his home and studio included world renowned artists Alexander Calder\, Yves Tanguy\, Marcel Duchamp\, and Max Ernst\, among many others. Among Seligmann’s students there\, were Robert Motherwell and Orange County’s own Frank Shuback. \n“As we approach the end of the 100th anniversary of the birth of Surrealism\, we are excited to showcase a selection of Seligmann’s etchings from the Seligmann Estate in Sugar Loaf here at the Wallkill River Center for the Arts (WRCA) in Montgomery NY\,” says WRCA executive director Ursula Morgan. \nThe unique exhibit\, titled Between Realms: The Visionary Etchings of Kurt Seligmann – made possible through partnership with The Seligmann Center and Vision Hudson – will also explore the artist’s place in the story of Surrealism. The Jewish Seligmann\, along with his wife Arlette\, was the first of the European Surrealists to emigrate at the start of WWII. Subsequently\, the couple were instrumental in helping to extricate a number of their fellow artists and writers from Occupied France. \n“In my position as Chair of the Seligmann Center Art Committee at Vision Hudson Valley\, I’m excited to curate and take part in this collaboration with WRCA\, which is my former work home of seven years\,” remarks Sarah Fortner.  “This exhibition was in the talking stages over a year ago and I’m pleased to be able to see it come to fruition\,” she continues. \nIn the adjacent gallery\, curators Morgan and Billy Noonan welcome Poughkeepsie born\, now Rhinebeck resident contemporary surrealist Mark Hopkins and his exhibition Hopkinesque by Mark Hopkins: Art That Thinks. \n“Mark’s work is thrilling and while vastly different from the etchings in the Seligmann exhibit\, the two artists share some remarkably similar personal traits. Like his elder predecessor\, Hopkins’ journey as an artist has taken him across the globe\, from Asia to Europe\, where he explored diverse cultures and perspectives\, integrating them into his work\,” enthuses Billy Noonan WRCA’s chief curator. \nBoth artists also expanded beyond their usual studio work to paint murals\, create illustrations\, and work in theater. Hopkins has also worked in film and graphic design. \n  \nART RECEPTION | Saturday\, March 22nd\, from 3-5 pm \nJoin us in the galleries for a reception to celebrate Surrealism\, the current exhibitions\, and to meet the artist and curators. Public invited\, admission is FREE\, light refreshments will be served. \n  \nExhibits on view through April 27\, 2025. \nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\, Noon – 5 pm

SUMMARY:November Reception
DESCRIPTION:Artist reception\, free and open to the public\, for two exhibits\, on view November 1st through December 15\, 2024. \nSmall Works is a group exhibit by Wallkill River Center for the Arts Artist Members.  Exhibited works are 8×10 or smaller and are comprised of a variety of media\, styles and subjects.  Due to the proximity to the holidays\, the gallery will allow buyers to take purchased work home immediately. \nJena Argenta is presenting a solo exhibit of her most recent work. The show titled LOVE LETTERS will feature work produced with funds from a 2024 Individual Artist grant.  “How do you write a love letter in American Ink? is an intentionally fraught question— but it’s also the one we’re faced with\,” states Argenta. The artist continues\, “The works presented here aren’t an answer to the question – they’re an attempt at asking. They’re a way of using multiple art forms as a way toward that asking. Works here were born in dialogue with community voices\, as well as historical\, literary\, and often banned or unrequited “lovers”. \nThe gallery is open to the public Fridays\, Saturdays\, and Sundays from 12:00-5:00 pm or by appointment.
