Bridgeport, CT––This spring, URSA Gallery celebrates the dialogue between art and nature with the unveiling of Kaleidoscope Eyes. Drawing inspiration from the groundbreaking visions of artists such as Paul Cézanne, Wassily Kandinsky, and Pablo Picasso—artists who transformed the way we perceive and feel nature’s energies—the exhibition will comprise dozens of mixed-media artworks that will engage all of our senses. To see the world through a kaleidoscope is to see ever-shifting yet hypnotic combinations of fractals and geometric patterns—bringing a new reality to the surface of things, unearthing the abstract in the everyday, revealing a crystallization of meaning in impermanence. Set against the backdrop of the breathtaking Colorblends House & Spring Garden, Kaleidoscope Eyes will engage these infinitely complex themes and more, showing how artists today break apart or enliven our environments in abstract, figurative, and impressionistic ways. With spring comes new beginnings—and through the scope of this show, new ways of seeing.
The Artist's Reception is scheduled for April 20, 2024, from 3–6pm. This event, coinciding with Earth Day, will offer a unique opportunity for guests to meet the artists in a historic setting, enjoying the fusion of art and horticulture and fostering a deeper connection with nature. The catered reception will provide guests with delicious refreshments as they enjoy the exhibition.
Kaleidoscope Eyes proudly showcases the works of Brian Walters, Carlos B. Biernnay, Carol Salmanson, Chris Coffin, Cris Dam, Dan Makara, Donald Guevara, Eddie Hall, Frank Foster Post, Greg Aimé, Jessica Smolinski, Kathleen Vance, Ken Butler, LardEian, Linda Colletta, Looketha, Loren Munk, Margaret Roleke, Maxine Hoover, Michael J. Clocks, Peter Weiss, Reid Stowe, and Ruth Sack. These artists contribute to a dynamic dialogue about creativity, shifting perspectives, and the natural world, enriching the exhibition's theme and offering visitors an array of visionary experiences.
