The Perfume Counter: Dawn Cerny & Damien Hoar de Galvan
A collaborative 2-artist, 2-gallery exhibition.
Open late for Georgetown Art Attack, Saturday May 10th 6-9pm
Artist Talk date TBD
“Dawn Cerny and Damien Hoar de Galvan share an aesthetic that is both formal and reductive while maintaining a sense of fun and curiosity. Both artists offer objects that allow us to contemplate their function, texture, and relation to the human body. Also, when shown together, Cerny and Hoar de Galvan address issues of usefulness and create a tension of belief --albeit fragile.” -Robert Yoder, SEASON

USES OF HISTORY
June 29 – August 4, 2019
Opening reception July 13th 6-9pm
"Uses of History" offers an idiosyncratic sampling of ways in which selected artists--approximately ten hailing from the Pacific Northwest and points beyond--engage with history and historical paradigms. Their approaches include redeploying vintage materials and imagery (e.g, the late D.E. May of Salem, Oregon; Berlin-based Cypriot Haris Epaminonda), appropriating cultural signifiers (Vancouver B.C.’s Kathy Slade), and reviving indigenous cultural and artisanal practices (Coast Salish weaver Danielle Morsette). Many of the artists find their muse in eras, events, sensibilities, and art of the past (British artist Jeremy Deller, Seattle’s Denzil Hurley and the late Jacob Lawrence, Tehrab-based Abbas Kowsari), Portland-based Ellen Lesperance). Curated by Melissa E. Feldman, the show features work in a variety of media including hand-sewn banners, industrial embroideries, painting and sculpture. “Uses of History” also represents the North American debut of Everybody in The Place (2018) by Turner prize-winner Deller, one of the most important British artists of his generation, and Epaminonda whose film Chimera (2019) received the Venice Biennale’s Silver Lion prize this year.

Feburary 14 - April 6
Opening Reception March 9th, 6-9pm
Solids and Voids: Sallyann Corn and Joe Kent with contributions by Gabriel Stromberg
‘Often constrained by the rational limitations of production, this new collection of works explore a need for unabashed creative freedom.
Neither objects, nor architecture while still referencing both in scale, vernacular and materiality. Designed to engage the audience in a conversation between the familiar and unfamiliar.
These tactile experiments aim to give form to the unknown, clear reservoirs, and celebrate creating without boundaries.
Sallyann Corn and Joseph Kent are Seattle-based Designers by practice. Their studio, fruitsuper aims to elevate the everyday.
Solids and Voids is a new collection of 2D and 3D abstractions including multiple contributions from Gabriel Stromberg.
