IF I ONLY HAD TIME TO TELL YOU
Gallery Route One. Point Reyes, CA February 8 - March 3, 2019 Personal, Political, True or Fictional Tales? Storytelling is central to this year’s annual juried show of Northern California artists. This year’s selection of 45 artworks runs the gamut from oil painting and sculpture to found object constructions and digital prints. Following the theme, many have stories to tell, hidden messages, and underlying issues, all for further reflection. Politics, climate change, the mystical and the whimsical are all portrayed, encouraging hearty discussion.
Best of Show has been awarded to Tom Gehrig’s oil painting with mixed media, Rock Fishing By Moonlight. This piece shows a scene of serenity bathed by the moon until one realizes the scene is not what it seems. There is oddness and irrationality in this nighttime setting: Why are there lights in the bushes and a stove ablaze outside? Concurrent feelings of alarm and calmness collide with one another. |
If I Only Had Time to Tell You was juried by San Francisco Bay Area artist and educator, M. Louise Stanley. Stanley has shown expansively and her works can be found in the collections of SFMOMA, San Jose Museum of Art, Oakland Museum of California, Mills College, Yale University Museum, The Triton Museum, and others.
