SUMMARY:Elizabeth Keithline: Puzzle
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Keithline: Puzzle\nAugust 22 – September 27\, 2026 \n\nArtist Elizabeth Keithline presents Puzzle\, a solo exhibition of assemblage artworks using found paint and materials. \nPuzzle is a follow-up to Breaking Broken\, Keithline’s previous solo show\, which explored human tendencies toward self-destruction and fragmentation. Puzzle pivots to examine how people create system of order out of chaos\, how they solve problems and navigate life’s challenges.  \nThe show continues Keithline’s longstanding exploration of human self-extension through systems such as architecture\, technology\, cars\, and the modern built environment—especially as these systems relate to the natural world. \nIn addition to her solo show\, Keithline will jury a companion exhibition in WRCA’s main galleries titled Keep It Together\, featuring assemblage-based artwork that conveys a material and conceptual sense of solving and/or coping. \n  \nAbout the artist:\nElizabeth Keithline has been a weaver since the age of 14. In 1996\, she pioneered a unique sculpture technique: weaving heavy-gauge wire around large objects and then burning them out. Her artistic practice now includes painting\, public art\, and installation work. Keithline is fascinated by abstraction—how far ideas can stretch\, how many multiples of a single thought can be expressed\, and how viewers engage with abstraction as they perceive an idea and then carry it away with them. \nPuzzle marks Keithline’s 23rd solo exhibition and Keep It Together will be her 23rd juried or curated group show. She has exhibited widely across the United States\, with solo shows for the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation\, ChaShaMa NYC\, Jane Street Art Center\,  \n  \nOPENING RECEPTION\nSaturday\, August 22\, 5 – 7 pm \nPlease join us to meet the artist and view the works; light refreshments will be served. \n  \nThe WRCA galleries and art reception are always free and open to the public. \nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pm \n  \nImage: Elizabeth Keithline\, Nowhere To Land\, mixed media\, 4 x 3 ft.\, 2026

SUMMARY:Keep It Together\, A Regional Exhibition Juried by Elizabeth Keithline
DESCRIPTION:Keep It Together\nA Regional Exhibition Juried by Elizabeth Keithline\nAugust 22 – September 27\, 2026 \n  \nIn addition to solo show Puzzle\, this companion exhibit juried by Elizabeth Keithline features assemblage-based artwork that conveys a material and conceptual sense of solving and/or coping. \n  \nJuror Statement \nAssemblage is art that is made by assembling disparate elements—often everyday objects—scavenged by the artist or bought specially. Tate Museum \nIn a way\, one could say that we start our first puzzle when egg and sperm find each other and we end it when we die and our bodies fit back into the earth. In between\, it seems we’re pretty much continually trying to solve issues both big and small:  \nWe’re out of milk again. Who will go to the store?  \nMy car died. Who can take me to the airport? \nIt’s hot out. How can we cool down the planet?  \nOur country is at war. How can we find peace? \nMany pieces in this show express how artists are coping\, as well as solving\, these issues. Melissa Stern’s PINK LEG shows assembly and fit through absence. The person she creates is barely there\, yet she is literally still kicking. Lucy Handley’s Prosperity puzzles together a shrine to wealth and comfort\, while giving off a beautiful Miss-Havisham-dustiness.  \nThrough small acts of repetition\, Jeannine Bardo’s Dawn No. 45 seems to express a wish to stitch the days together into an orderly and cohesive whole. Similarly\, Jennifer McGregor’s Thetford Interlude gathers and reuses wool as a sort of clock or chronicle of life. Melanie Delgado’s excellently titled Another Load Of Laundry evokes a calendar of another type\, that of messy\, ceaseless labor. Linda Stillman’s piece Maples On The Move continues her long history as an artist who pieces together an ever-changing natural world.   \nWith this show\, I hope to express an appreciation for how human beings continue to think their way forward despite challenges. \n \nExhibiting artists: Julia Barbour\, Jeannine Bardo\, Jenne Currie\, Melanie Delgado\, Tasha Depp\, Karen E. Gersch\, Lucy Handley\, Jen Hicks\, Chong Kang\, Jeff & Wilson Keithline\, Tracy Leavitt\, Jignasha Leonardo\, Jennifer McGregor\, Eva Melas\, Ann Morris\, Jane Nelson\, Suzanne Parker\, Eileen Power\, Amanda Russo Rubman\, Anthony Scarzafava\, Melissa Stern\, Linda Stillman\, Kimberly Truitt\, Christina Varga\, Ward Yoshimoto\, Mimi Young\, Leslie Zelamsky. \n – Elizabeth Keithline \n  \nAbout the Juror: Artist and arts administrator Elizabeth Keithline’s work focuses on human self-extension and human systems of all kinds – architecture\, technology\, cars\, the modern built environment – particularly as those systems tie to the natural world. \nShe has shown widely in the United States including solo shows at ChaShaMa NYC\, Governors Island NY\, the Peabody Essex Museum\, the Danforth Museum\, the Newport Art Museum\, Jane Street Art Center\, the Waiting Room in New Orleans\, Blue Star Contemporary in San Antonio\, ArtPrize Grand Rapids\, Real Art Ways in Hartford\, and UMass Amherst. Her work has been well reviewed in the New York Times\, Sculpture Magazine\, Hyperallergic\, the Boston Globe\, Fiberarts\, and others. \n  \nOPENING RECEPTION\nSaturday\, August 22\, 5 – 7 pm \nPlease join us to meet the artists and view the works; light refreshments will be served. \n  \nArt receptions and the galleries at WRCA are always free and open to the public. \nGallery hours: Friday – Sunday\, 12 – 5 pm
