Artexpo New York City

Washington, DC’s Gallery NK has been representing me at special art fairs outside of town. I was one of a handful of their artists to exhibit at Artexpo New York City on pier 94.  Held during April 14-17, the event drew designers, collectors, and art enthusiasts.

I very much like the way Gallery NK displayed a selection of my new Corrected Vision paintings — all 36″x36″ acrylic on canvas.  Because the gallery boasts a collection of very talented, skilled, and innovative artists from around the world, I consider myself fortunate to be showcasing my own work with them.

Gallery NK at Artexpo New York City

In addition to myself, exhibiting artists included Steffen Faisst, Nihal Kececi (Gallery NK owner), Julia Hacker, Alfredo Palmero, Thomas Dodd.

My thanks to Nihal Kececi of Gallery NK for the support and expert assistance in exhibiting at these world class international fairs.

Just a reminder:

Susan Calloway Fine Arts represents me exclusively in the Washington, DC area. 

Located in the heart of Georgetown at 1643 Wisconsin Avenue NW, Washington, DC, the Gallery graciously welcomes my exhibiting in other local venues from time to time for special exhibits.  She also has arranged for some artwork to be used temporarily by local decorators. 

Bottom line, you can see a number of my pieces right now at Susan Calloway’s.   And, many of the paintings on my website LeslieNolan.com and on this blog are available through Susan Calloway Fine Arts (gallery@callowayart.com).

Some photos of the Mixed Messages opening reception at The Delaplaine in Frederick, MD this weekend.   This gorgeous large former mill space with huge wood support posts and exposed brick really sets off the ten paintings in the exhibit.  On exhibit through September 27.

Thanks to volunteers Joyce and Ashley and Delaplaine Exhibits Manager Diane Sibbison for their first-rate support.

Installing “Mixed Messages” – Opening Sept 5

Leslie Nolan's "Mixed Messages" at Delaplaine Visual Arts Education Center

Leslie Nolan’s “Mixed Messages” at Delaplaine Visual Arts Education Center

Installed this solo exhibit, Mixed Messages, yesterday and today at The Delaplaine Visual Arts Education Center in Frederick, MD.  My sincere thanks to the considerable patient and willing assistance of three key people:  Delaplaine Exhibitions Manager Diane Sibisson, comedian and sculptor Virginia Warwick, and my wonderful husband.

Mixed Messages features figure paintings that hint at emotions which remain largely hidden in real life.  The intent of this grouping of bold images of faces and heads is to draw the viewer in to examine feelings behind the facade.

New for Upcoming Solo Shows

Working on some new pieces for upcoming solo exhibits in September at Susan Calloway Fine Arts in Washington, DC’s Georgetown and at Delaplaine Arts Center in Frederick, MD.  While still pondering on an appropriately ambiguous title for the Calloway exhibit, the title for Delaplaine is “Mixed Messages.”   I think it apt, because we send out the message we want people to receive, yet our body language or tone can communicate a completely different message.  The recipient must draw his or her own interpretation of those sometimes “mixed messages.”

In the final analysis, aren’t we all a little confused from time to time?
