Thai Mainhard: Off the Ground
In Thai Mainhard’s exhibition “Off the Ground” vibrant, frenetic colors are collaged, painted, and drawn onto canvases that show a sense of composition and experience. Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and based in Los Angeles, California, Mainhard’s personal exploration of place seeps into each of her paintings. In her newest body of work Mainhard embraces tangible objects through an exploration of the composed still life. Expressively rendered maximalist spaces are filled with swatches of bright color, checkered table clothes, and patterned vases of loosely rendered botanicals offer a lingering invitation. These composed paintings are the physical embodiment of the artists internal world and life experience, harnessing the tension between chaos and order, figurative composition, and expressive abstraction.

February Exhibitions at Gail Severn Gallery
Judith Kindler: Leaving Traces on Venice’s Storied Walls Judith Kindler transports viewers by reconfiguring visions of textured surfaces and graffitied walls of Venice, Italy, on to her own canvas. Through a mixed media process of layering original photography and painting, Kindler makes her mark on the city of which she draws so much inspiration. “When I go to Venice, I feel like it is home, familiar like, perhaps I lived there. Walking the streets and traveling in the canals in such a beautiful environment with the old architecture juxtaposed with the new art fills me with immense joy.” As a meditation on memory, Kindler initiates a dialog between her own iconography and the preexisting traces of history and time. Berkeley Hoerr: Ketchum in Color Ketchum, Idaho has long been a subject and source of inspiration for artists, authors, and poets. Painter, Berkeley Hoerr approaches the landscape from her own unique perspective with an emphasis on bright and bold color. Hoerr illustrates icons of a beloved ski town through charming depictions of favorited local spots, snap shots of winter activities, and creative views of Bald Mountain. Whether you are a long-time resident of the Wood River Valley or just visiting, you …
Join us for Gallery Walk at Gilman Contemporary
Catch the last gallery walk of the winter and view the meticulous encaustic works of Matt Duffin and the realist book portraits of Paul Béliveau!
Paul Béliveau
Paul Béliveau’s Morandi is inspired by the often pastel-toned works of Italian painter Giorgio Morandi. While Béliveau has treated book spines as subject matter before, in the Morandi series the books themselves, rather than the text that decorates their covers, are treated as the aesthetic quality. Outside reference to author, subject, and image is missing and instead, Béliveau revels in the shape and volume of the books responding and building upon each other as a methodical convergence of color and form.
Matt Duffin: Retrospection
Matt Duffin’s encaustic paintings use primarily black and white tones with selected pops of color to bring attention to his irreverent subjects. Employing simplicity within the imagery allows the painstaking qualities of his methodology to shine. Encaustic works are made using wax to which pigment has been added. The wax is heated, applied to a prepared wood surface, and shaped using special brushes and tools. To achieve this level of detail requires exactitude and skill. Considering the rigorous amount of time it takes to complete each piece, it is no surprise that Duffin’s themes tend to explore nostalgia, solitude and irony.
