Giselle Castro Brightenburg Solo Exhibition

Giselle Castro Brightenburg Solo Exhibition - De Profundis (From the Depths)

Exhibition Dates: December 2-21, 2024
SHOW EXTENDED UNTIL DECEMBER 27th!

Gallery Hours: Thursday-Saturday - 10am to 5pm and by appointment.

Dive Into the Depths of Art and Emotion

Join us for De Profundis (From the Depths), an extraordinary exhibition by Giselle Castro-Brightenburg. This stunning collection of paintings brings the beauty of sea life and the mysteries of the subconscious together, exploring themes of love, loss, gratitude, and resilience through the lens of Jungian psychology.

As part of the exhibition explore Giselle’s immersive "Artist Studio Under the Sea", where sea creature paintings transform the studio into a mesmerizing underwater world!

This exhibition serves as a visual diary of the past year, focusing on sea creatures and exploring my emotional world. Drawing on Jungian psychology, the ocean represents the subconscious, and through these paintings I express emotions like love, fear, loss, gratitude, and grief. Inspired by music, poetry, nature, and personal challenges, this collection also reflects the angels and demons I've faced and honors the friends who supported me and those I had to let go of.

I would be honored to have you share in this journey.
-Giselle Castro-Brightenburg

Lourdes Lavalle Solo Exhbition

Lourdes Lavalle Solo Exhibition
Beyond the Geometry of the Universe
Exhibition dates: November 12-30, 2024

Opening Reception: Thursday, November 14th from 5:30 - 8:30pm

"Beyond the Geometry of the Universe" is an immersive exhibition that invites the viewer to explore the intricate interplay between geometry and the cosmos through the lens of abstract oil painting. In this collection, the power of shapes, colors, and textures transcend the physical dimensions of our world, inviting the observer to contemplate the infinite possibilities that lie beyond our immediate perception.

Each piece in this exhibition serves as a visual meditation on the fundamental structures that govern the universe. From the swirling galaxies to the precise patterns of atomic interactions, these works translate the complexities of cosmic phenomena into a language of form and color. Through bold lines and harmonious compositions, I, the artist invite you to see beyond the mere geometry of our surroundings and to connect with the deeper, often unseen, forces that shape our existence.

As you wander through this exhibition, allow yourself to be drawn into the vibrant dialogue between abstraction and reality. Let your imagination roam free, exploring the realms of possibility that exist beyond the canvas. Join me in celebrating the beauty of geometric abstraction and its profound relationship with the universe we inhabit. Welcome to a journey where art and science converge, revealing the extraordinary within the ordinary.

My style or artwork is called, synergetic metal art sculpture. This is an art form where life is given to an object, using recycled and everyday materials.

This exhibition is intended to help visualize mental health struggles, with the intention to build compassion and empathy for the people traveling down the road of recovery. Awareness and understanding starts in the mind, before it can be felt in the heart.

Curated by Liz Jordan and Andrea Lamarsaude
Powered by the City of Dallas Office of Arts and Culture

September 7 - Opening reception, 6-9pm
Refreshments will be served. DJ MISO will be curating our music for the evening.

September 14 - 6-8pm - Closing reception/artist talk with Katrina Rasmussen and Corey Godfrey
Exhibition on view - September 3 - 14, 2024.
Gallery hours during exhibition -
Tuesday, Thursday and Friday 10am-5pm, Saturday noon to 5pm and by appointment.

Art on Main 4428 Main Street, Suite 200, Dallas, TX 75226

The Convergence exhibition is a platform for artists seeking to engage in collaborative artistry. We want to foster and enable a united community that empowers and uplifts participating artists. This will culminate in an exhibition held in the Art on Main Gallery, centered around connection, community, and unity.

All artists 18 years and older could apply. Artists who are historically underrepresented i.e., female-identifying, mothers, members of the LGBTQIA+, disabled, and/or ALAANA communities were encouraged to apply.

Connection between artists and community is a central goal and we believe that by working under the theme of convergence and collaboration we can create a feeling of unity within our arts community in an authentic way. 

“Convergence” - The definition of convergence is, the act of converging and especially moving toward union.
 
Liz Jordan and thMTHRshp are partnering with Art on Main gallery owner, Andrea Lamarsaude, to curate and facilitate Convergence, an exhibition featuring collaborative work (two or more artists working on one piece) of local and national artists working under the theme of collaboration and centered around connection, community, and unity. 

The conception and effort of the exhibition itself is a collaboration between two female-identifying gallery owners, uniting to create something unique for East Dallas community, the City of Dallas arts community and the community at large.

Collaborative arts practice involves artists working closely together, often over extended periods of time, to make art. It harnesses the experiences and skills of each person taking part to give meaning and creative expression to the project.

Collaboration builds comradeship as artists move toward a common goal. Often it results in the transfer of technical skills and knowledge from one artist to another. Two or more people working together create something entirely different than each person working alone. It is a symbiosis that results in a new type of work entirely.

From here, this little book can become what ever you desire!
