Ironic: “Time” RIVAA Members Exhibit Before A COVID Spring

Start

Time, a RIVAA Members Exhibit, opened Saturday at the 527 Main Street Gallery. Art from students at The Child School added nicely to the members’ work. Take a look on us, but see the show, up until January, in person, if you can.

A colorful outburst of creativity, Jim Pignetti’s Molto Brutto set a lively tone. It’s hung just behind the front desk, impossible to miss as you enter.

With In the Age of Deer, Ioan Popoiu extends his mastery of abstract art on a large canvas with acrylics.

Earlier this year, Popoiu’s As the Footsteps Fall became the first art exhibit at the Tata Innovation Center on the Cornell Tech campus.

Without fail, Piotr Olszewski’s photos remind us to look harder and see more in everyday life.
Ana Martinez Orizondo’s Sea of Dragonflies evokes a multilayered surrealism.
Anne-Marie Dannenberg’s photo, The Old Stairs, Spain, is lyrical, a meditation on time and aging.
Time & Garden #1, an oil on canvas by Toshiko Kitano Groner, shows us that one of our favorite artists has not lost her touch for color and composition.
