from the gallery press release:
This is a powerful exhibition featuring a diverse array of talented visionary women artists; including but not limited to Agnes Pelton, Louise Nevelson, Irene Rice-Pereira, Janice Biala, Beatrice Mandelman, Vivian Springford, Elaine de Kooning, Florence Miller Pierce, Siri Berg, Sonia Gechtoff, Lilly Fenichel, Sheila Isham, Irene Monat Stern, Joan Thorne, Mimi Chen Ting, Grace Rosario Perkins, Rachel MacFarlane, Angela Heisch, and Brianna Bass. This captivating show explores creative interpretations of spiritual and cosmic themes within each of the artists’ unique artistic language and expression. The genesis of this exhibition springs from my deep connection with the Transcendental Painting Group (1938-1945) and my gallery’s recent acquisition of Agnes Pelton's masterpiece, "The Being; A Transcendental Vision." With three decades of experience as a gallery owner in Santa Fe, I've developed a deep appreciation for the significance of landscape and the artists’ ability to capture the essence of the land and the spirit of the earth. Moreover, as a woman in the art world, I am driven to highlight the formidable contributions of female artists whose dynamic and distinctive canvases serve as evocative expressions of both earthly and celestial imagery. This exhibition is a celebration of their power and vision.
Each work bears the unique imprint of its creator, serving as a personal expression of ideas relevant both to our contemporary era and throughout the annals of history. They stand as poignant reminders of the enduring dialogue between the human spirit and the mysteries of existence.
