held on thursday november 6 2014 from 5 30 7 30 p m hiroshi sato s work presents a refreshing take on exact moments in time the contemporary realist paintings are seen as snapshots capturing intimate and still moments he emphasizes form with his use of light and dark and evokes strong emotions by highlighting different sections of each painting his use of geometric design elements adds both frame and flatness by playing with illusion and perspective unlike his previous work sato s focus is introspective spurred by his reflections of the evolution of his creative processes over the past four years his childhood activities like piecing together models of planes cars and motorcycles and a love for pop up books played a large role in his approach to painting today and are the subjects within many of the current paintings sato has been featured in southwest art magazine american art collector art business the artist s magazine and fine art connoisseur he is currently enrolled in the mfa

be held on thursday october 2 2014 from 5 30 7 30 p m eric zener s new work offers a pop spin on his signature imagery gone are the realistic depictions of swimmers in water and in their place are bold colors and a sense of playfulness that reminds us of the joy we feel when we let go the use of color as a compositional tool is most synonymous with the work of the 1980 s and like warhol and harring zener s color choices are intrepid and loud of course another association that the pop artists cultivated is that of the brand and zener continues with his imagery that is so recognizable with a fresh spin and natural evolution a self taught painter zener was born in astoria oregon and grew up in the seaside town of encinitas california he received his b a in psychology from the university of california santa barbara he has shown extensively in asia australia north america and europe and is included in numerous corporate private and museum collections posted by hespe gallery at 2 06 pm

reception will be held on thursday july 10 from 5 30 to 7 30 p m amberlee rosolowich presents the viewer with something that instantly transports them back to childhood experiences wonder and magic her paintings remind us that we share the world with beautiful creatures that live in harmony with us in a carefree spontaneous way her current body of work focuses on the flocks and herds of animals that are united by their identity rosolowich renders groups of animals to comment not only on the power and beauty of their species but also their dwindling numbers a staunch conservationist rosolowich places a small innocent child in the image to remind us that animals too are to be cared for and cherished just as a child is despite the great size of these majestic animals the juxtaposition of the two evokes a sense of playfulness while illuminating the peaceful and gentle relationship between them born in canada raised in hawaii rosolowich spent her days with her zoologist mother daydreaming and wandering through the zoo imagining its inhabitants were her friends and confidants she received her bfa from the academy of art in san francisco rosolowich has been featured in

works by wolfgang bloch beginning may 1 through 31 2014 a reception will be held on thursday may 1 from 5 30 to 7 30 p m the compellingly rich and experiential paintings of wolfgang bloch are reflective of the timelessness and depth of his relationship with nature a relationship that was once sparked and has since been cultivated by the pristine beaches of ecuador while the delicate breaking of a single wave marvelously delineates the moment in which the sky and the earth meet bloch s paintings maintain a powerful sense of intensity and presence through the masterful use of space and materials bloch takes advantage of the inherent personalities and natural textures of his materials to complement and incite his abstracted coasts that are painted largely by the guidance of his intuition filled with discarded materials that have been collected over years bloch s studio fosters a process of playful material investigation that ultimately culminates into ethereal seascapes born in guayaquil ecuador wolfgang bloch grew up surfing avidly along secluded beaches in pursuit of higher education bloch emigrated from ecuador to the united states where he received his bfa and ba in design bloch s work has been collected by numerous corporate and private collections and his work has been shown throughout australia brazil england japan and the united states this will be bloch s

our september show a mashup up with artists kevin moore brett amory kim frohsin david choong lee john wentz and adam forfang mash up nouninformal noun mashup a mixture or fusion of disparate elements slang a creative combination or mixing of content from different sources mashup is a unique collaboration between six bay area painters kevin moore brett amory kim frohsin david choong lee john wentz and adam forfang the idea is for the six artists to meet once a month for 6 months at different locations around the bay area chronicling the local landscape and weather as it shifts from winter into summer the group makes a single large plein air painting consisting of six different individual sections at each location each painter brings a 30 x 40 canvas to the site and paints a section of the overall scene in their own unique style the paintings are done strictly from life they are raw immediate and honest each location has its own director this means the selected artist for a particular month would have the general composition loosely worked out for everyone prior to the session upon arrival the group sets up and paints the scene in one session start to finish the end result is a 60 x 120 composite image of the scene with all six canvases creating a tapestry of different styles and approaches that coalesce into a single unified whole the following month everyone meets again at a different location chosen by the new director every composite painting has a different composition subject and mood depending on the weather and the artist that directs the scene for the day its an investigation in time space and teamwork every painting is a new adventure composite painting 2 february directed by adam forfang 60x120 6 panels each 30x40 all oil on canvas posted by hespe gallery

artists will be held on thursday november 7 from 5 30 7 30 the exhibition will continue through november 30 2013 robert townsend s work explores the mystique of vintage americana lustrous images of sweet delights smooth sets of wheels and commonplace objects and scenes of the 1950 s and 1960 s are the artists inspirations townsend was raised in la by parents who had grown up in 1950 s los angeles his fascination with the culture of this period has drawn from artists whose work equates to a very specifically californian aesthetic ed ruscha robert bechtle wayne thiebaud and ralph goings townsend considers his works pop realism allowing viewers to indulge in a sweet nostalgic fantasy of retro american ingenuity in imagery meant to evoke the road trips trail markers and european adventures of youth william lagattuta uses arrows to point forward a seemingly directionless path they are a guide which exemplify the endless possibilities and directions we have to choose from when following our passions and ambitions in life lagatutta himself chose the path of artistry in 2007 after working as a television correspondent and anchorman for over three decades allowing his artwork to serve as a personal quest into creatively understanding and translating the complexities of life onto tangible mediums of paint wood and metal posted by hespe gallery at 1 45 pm no comments email
