SUMMARY:Hot House: An Exhibit of Botanicals
DESCRIPTION: Hot House\, an exhibit of botanicals celebrating the abundance of spring\, opens April 5th at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts. A reception for the artists will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. The event is free and the public is invited. \n“Flora 24” – Stacy Frank \nThis exhibit is a euphoric visual landscape of flora and fauna\, featuring a range of media—works strong in color\, eccentric in design\, and loaded with enthralling details. Media used to create botanical paintings include watercolor\, colored pencil\, pen and ink\, oil\, and graphite. Botanical art is a centuries old art form that has a long and colorful history dating back to the 1400s BCE. With the advent of photography\, botanical art was dormant for nearly a century but saw a rebirth in the latter part of the 1900s. \nArtists include Kamille Corry\, Stacy Frank\, Frank Galuszka\, Ken Hale\, Andrea Johnson\, Nancy Lawton\, Claire Lerner\, Susan Manchester\, Stephanie Martin\, Michel Medinger\, and others. \n“Fall Chrysanthemum” –                 Stephanie Martin \n  \nA marriage of art and science\, botanical art immortalizes the plant world. After closely observing a plant\, the artist discovers amazing details. The subject is carefully measured\, drawn\, and painted to capture its graceful movement and intriguing personality. \n“Floral 21” – Claire Lerner \nThe most skilled botanical artists are those who understand plants scientifically\, but also see and describe their subject with the eye and hand of an artist. Artists for the current exhibit also see botanicals through the lens of expressionism. \nWhile plant paintings can be delicate and painstakingly exact and larger landscape canvases boldly imaginative\, both are evidence of an extraordinary life in which sensuous love and religious conviction intertwine with scientific discovery. \nHot House: An Exhibit of Botanicals can be seen through May 4th during regular gallery hours: Wednesday through Friday from 11 to 4 p.m.\,  Saturday noon to 4 p.m.\, or by appointment. \nPictured above: “Cascade” –  Kenneth Hale \n\n

SUMMARY:Paper: Pressed\, Printed\, Sliced and Creased
DESCRIPTION:Paper: Pressed\, Printed\, Sliced and Creased\, an exhibit exploring the range and diversity of artwork on paper\, opens Friday\, January 11th\, with an artists reception from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. \n\nThis exhibition focuses on works on paper\, including prints\, illustrated books\, and selected drawings that explore and manipulate the materiality of paper itself.

SUMMARY:Bruce Forman's "The Red Guitar" SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:Imagine receiving an invitation to a gala featuring John Coltrane\, Sigmund Freud\, and Faust. Bruce Forman’s “The Red Guitar” is all that and more. This show draws on Forman’s decades of experience as a formidable jazz guitarist and his considerable skill as a storyteller and teacher\, producing a work that is greater than the sum of its dazzling parts. \nA story in and about jazz\, “The Red Guitar “ showcases Forman’s genre-breaking inventiveness and his ability to improvise and create within a classical form. Enlisting the full power of the jazz idiom and integrating it with seasoned and provocative story-telling\, he confronts the dilemma of artistic obsession face-to-face by creating a work of art that simultaneously explores and demonstrates the hold that music has over its most ardent followers… the hold that poses itself as a life-or-death\, must-be-solved-question to Forman and his ilk.  Come hear Bruce’s answers to the question: “The Red Guitar”- do you play it…or does it play you? The Red Guitar is serious one-man theater\, incorporating great musical virtuosity and storytelling skills to explore the obsessive demands that music places on its truest followers \nWorld-class guitarist\, Bruce Forman\, has been making positive waves in jazz circles for over thirty years.  His life and musical journey provide an American saga that is still in full swing. His Texas origins\, his early career in San Francisco and New York\, and his years on the road all contribute to the unique and highly personal vision that he demonstrates today. \nPlease join us for some great music\, wine\, and light fare–all included in the ticket price. Sunday\, December 9th\, doors open at 2:00pm; performance from 3:00-5:00pm. Tickets are $20\, available at brownpapertickets.com. or by calling (831) 624-7491.

SUMMARY:"You'd Be Prettier If You Smiled" - Identity\, Gender and Dissonance
DESCRIPTION:The Carl Cherry Center’s next exhibition\, You’d Be Prettier if You Smiled: Identity\, Gender and Dissonance\, opens Friday\, October 19th\, with an artists’ reception from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m.  The event is free and open to the public. \nFor this exhibit\, Gail Enns selected works by the Temple Sisters\, Susan Abbott Martin\, and Maria Porges that open an important conversation about the enduring struggle women face in contemporary society. \nYou’d Be Prettier if You Smiled\, Identity\, Gender and Dissonance furthers the dialog begun with The New Domestics\, Finding Beauty in the Mundane\, mounted recently at The Monterey Museum of Art. \n“I believe that Jeanne d’Orge\, founder of The Cherry Center for the Arts\, would embrace both shows as continuing the spirit of the  Feminists and their fight for the long sought recognition of women’s art as a viable part of the contemporary art world\,” says Enns. \nThe exhibition will run in the gallery through November 30th\, 2018. \nPictured\, above: “You’d Be Prettier if You Smiled” – The Temple Sisters\, mixed media on canvas\, 40″x 60″ \n\nCurator Statement: \nYou’d Be Prettier if You Smiled: Identity\, Gender and Dissonance provides insight into the tension between genders and the relative place of women in contemporary culture. \nThis show questions our culturally accepted norms of feminine expression by calling attention to the idea that stereotypes pervade our culture not only with words — such as chauvinistic labels like “hysterical” and “shrill” — but also with images and objects — such as lace on one hand\, or saw blades on the other — that connote stereotypical ideas of feminine and masculine. \nMarie Porges’ destroys and then reconstructs ancient Gothic books into tools\, such as saw handles. Susan Abbot Martin creates hand-made doilies on saw blades; the friction between these two materials highlights the tension between genders.  The Temple Sisters\, Holly and Ashlee\, deconstruct images of young women beaming with energy\, but constricted by torn paper\, notes and ephemera.  However one chooses to interpret these works\, it is clear that each artist skillfully grapples with the distillation and presentation of female stereotypes. \nThis exhibition continues the dialog begun recently at The Monterey Museum of Art with The New Domestics\, Finding Beauty in the Mundane. \nJeanne d’Orge\, Cherry Center founder\,  would embrace this show as continuing the feminist spirit of artists such as Miriam Schapiro\, Jenny Holzer\, Eva Hesse and Louise Bougeois who have all contributed to the long fought recognition of women’s art as a critical contribution to contemporary art. \n– Gail Enns \n\nAbout the Artists: \nThe Temple Sisters work in mixed media and generate large and small works on canvas and paper\, as well as smaller three-dimensional assemblages. Their work reflects their fascination with the effects of time and memory upon iconography – personal\, spiritual and cultural. Each piece created is meant to engage the viewer in questions of the temporal nature of the image(s)\, personal memory and the hidden stories that are re-imagined through age and displacement. \nHolly Temple studied art and art history at the San Francisco Academy Art\, San Francisco State University and at C.S.U. in Florence\, Italy.  She worked in New York for many years as an Art Director at Avon\, Christian Dior\, Estee Lauder\, David Yurman\, among others and currently runs her own freelance graphic design company in Carmel-by-the-Sea\, California. \nAshlee Temple studied theatre at N.Y.U. and received her M.F.A.  from the Yale School of Drama. She continues to work in theatre as a director and teacher in Stockton\, CA. \n  \nSusan Abbott Martin received her MFA in 1981 from the California College of Arts and Crafts.  Martin has exhibited at the Oakland Museum at City Center; Cuesta College in San Luis Obispo; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art Artist Gallery; and Dennos Museum at Northwestern Michigan State\, Traverse City. \n“Not Your Grandmother’s Crocheted Coverlet #3” – Susan Abbott Martin \nHer work has been reviewed in Art Forum\, the SF Chronicle\, Artweek\, and the World Herald in Omaha\, Nebraska.  Martin has received numerous grants\, awards and residencies\, including two grants from the Pollock Krasner Foundation; the Lila Wallace Reader’s Digest International Artists Program at Monet’s garden in Giverny\, France; the Bemis Foundation in Omaha\, Nebraska; and Yaddo in Saratoga Springs\, New York. She currently lives and works in Oakland\, California. \n  \nMaria Porges is an artist and writer whose work has been exhibited widely in solo and group exhibitions since the late 1980s. She received a SECA award from the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and has been in residence at the Headlands Center for the Arts twice. \n“Celestial Blue” (2016) Maria Porges \nA finalist for the Creative Capital/Warhol Foundation Art Writer’s Grant in 2014\,  her critical writing has appeared in many publications\, including Artforum\, Art in America\, Sculpture\, American Ceramics\, Glass\, New York Times Book Review\, and a host of other now-defunct art magazines. She has also authored essays for over 100 exhibition catalogues and dozens of scripts for museum audio tours. Porges is an Associate Professor at California College of the Arts.

SUMMARY:The Crow Flies Backwards
DESCRIPTION:“The Crow Flies Backwards” – Deanna Forbes\n  \nThe Crow Flies Backwards\, an exhibit exploring approaches to Zen koans\, opens Friday\, August 10th\, at the Carl Cherry Center for the Arts with a reception from 5:00 – 7:00PM. The event is free and open to the public. \nKoans represent the saying of Zen teachers\, as collected centuries ago in Tang China.  Koan  (Japanese) literally means “public case” (as in legal precedent)\, and these ancient cases continue to have relevance for modern Zen students\, illuminating what it might mean to live free from repetitive forms of thinking and behaving. Through the thoughtful play of koan practice\, students learn to live freshly and immediately with everything that arises – however it appears: as breath\, headache or bird song. \n“Lavender Swirl\, Lower Antelope Canyon\, Navajo Reservation\, Arizona” – Kenneth Parker \nThis exhibition explores the diverse approaches of contemporary artwork and photography when paired with 9th century Chinese koans\, from the forceful brushwork of Tracey Adams to the contemplative canvases of Leonard Han\, and enigmatic spatial forms of Deanna Forbes. The exhibition also includes works by Sharron Antholt\, Allison Atwill\, Laurel Farrin\, Judith Foosaner\, Tom Nakashima\, Kenneth Parker\, Dennis Peak\, Tim Rice\, and Sam Tchakalian. \n\nThe exhibit can be seen Wednesday through Friday from 11 to 4 p.m.; Saturdays\, 12 to 4 p.m.; or by appointment through September 15th\, 2018. The Carl Cherry Center is located at the corner of Fourth and Guadalupe\, Carmel. Information: (831) 624-7491. \n\n“Utopia for Practical Purposes” – Tracey Adams \n
