Andy Mister: Sonnets

Ochi Gallery Lewis Street, Ketchum

OCHI is pleased to present Sonnets, a solo exhibition of new paintings by New York-based artist Andy Mister. This is Mister’s debut solo presentation at the gallery. Sonnets will be on view at OCHI, located at 119 Lewis Street in Ketchum, Idaho from July 13 through August 17, 2024. Andy Mister’s paintings of cut flowers in water-filled vessels merge the ephemerality of traditional drawing techniques with the physicality of painting. Mister’s paintings are intimate, both small in stature and also offering insight into the personal nature of the work—Mister recently moved with his wife and their two young children to a town near the Susquehanna River in upstate New York, a change of pace from city life. Immersed in the outdoors, Mister watches his children navigate the natural world with curiosity and joy. While previous paintings relied on found imagery, the paintings in Sonnets are all based on real flower arrangements made by all members of the Mister family. The artist’s kids choose flowers at the local farmer’s market and place them around the house in whatever vessel they can find—a jam jar used for turpentine, a glass left behind, or a small vase bought secondhand. Nodding to the late ...

James Chronister: And we are green…

Ochi Gallery Lewis Street, Ketchum

OCHI is pleased to present And we are green, greener than the hill, where flowers grow and the sun shines still, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Montana-based artist James Chronister. This marks Chronister’s debut solo presentation with the gallery. The exhibition will be on view at OCHI, located at 119 Lewis Street in Ketchum, Idaho from July 13 through August 17, 2024. And we are green, greener than the hill, where flowers grow and the sun shines still features James Chronister’s deeply intricate, monochromatic landscape paintings. Composing straight on images of dense winter forests, close ups of individual leaves, and aerial images of flora, Chronister begins his process by photographing the environment surrounding his home in Missoula, Montana. After digitally distorting contrast, focus, and tones, Chronister moves from computer to canvas where minuscule individual marks reveal scrupulous technical application. Onto a white or carefully hued off-white background, Chronister meticulously recreates source photographs by repeatedly applying, shaping, and erasing black oil paint. Precise dry brushing and stippling techniques achieve texture, depth, and refinements of form. As painter Jake Longstreth remarks, “Chronister achieves a startling range of tonality and depth. Viewed up-close, the paintings are constructed by a series of ...

EZRA SIEGEL

Hemmings Gallery Walnut Avenue, Ketchum

With multiple layers of washes and thin paint, Siegel's work is full of nuanced color and tone. His work suggests a minimalist approach but exhibits a human touch in the hope that the viewer can experience beauty through imperfection and subtlety.

SPENCER HANSEN

Hemmings Gallery Walnut Avenue, Ketchum

Selected works on display at Hemmings Gallery (340 Walnut Ave) from July 30 @ 11:00 am - August 24 @ 5:00 pm "The interplay between exploration and heritage lies at the heart of Spencer Hansen's artistic journey. His childhood in rural Idaho cultivated an intricate relationship with familial tradition, while his nomadic nature exposed him to diverse landscapes. Hansen has been living and working part time in Bali since 2007, where he co-created his main workshop and studio. Within his studio space, Spencer collaborates with Indonesian artisans to experiment with and refine processes, spanning from woodcarving to ceramics, metalworking to design.  His reverence for a handmade approach and his own interest in exploring new processes creates an ever-evolving connection between his team and his creations. His interest in sharing an experience through technical resonance plays a crucial role in his choice of medium, which consists mostly of natural materials. His intentional approach throughout his practice culminates in multimedia sculptures that evoke an otherworldly tenderness within viewers, embodying personas that encompass elements of his playful imagination."

James Austin Murray: On the Return

Gilman Contemporary 661 Sun Valley Rd, Sun Valley

"On the Return" features new works from painter James Austin Murray who continues to demand that we put aside preconceived perceptions of light and dark and explore their evolving role in our lives. Murray rakes, scrapes, and physically moves his thickly applied jet-black paint, making the flat surface expand, contract, ripple, and pulse. Each painting is informed by years of innovative, intentional practice that is tempered by the fickle nature of wet oil paint. Murray’s ability to create an infinite possibility with paint and canvas is one that belies the limitation of material. The simplicity creates a visual complexity that can only be experienced when standing in front of one of his paintings. With each painting, we are given a glimpse into Murray’s artistic and material perspective.
