Blue Mitchell

Newspace presents New Work by Blue Mitchell, who "burns his negatives, distorting natural landscapes into painterly, surreal scenes. The images are applied as acrylic lifts to birch panels, and then varnished. Mitchell aims to move beyond a simply two-dimensional perspective with his photographs, in an attempt to more accurately express his true experience of the landscapes he photographs."



Corey Davis

Landscapes, Materialized by Corey Davis is also at Newspace this month. The exhibition features "beautifully abstract, minimalistic images of coffee grounds in the bottom of Japanese teacups... The landscape-like images invoke calming, meditative spaces."

Opening receptions • 7-10pm • January 8

Liz Obert, installation view of Mapping Marnay-sur-Seine

The Alpern Gallery presents Liz Obert's Mapping Marnay-sur-Seine. From the artist: "The piece relates a sense of place to the viewer by looking solely at the details or micro-images of this village... We learn about our world by taking it apart whether it's by dissecting an animal, collecting archeological artifacts or analyzing a poem."

Opening reception • 6-9pm • January 8
