"get (it) together: selected works" by Branda C. Maholtz opens at The Ohringer Gallery Braddock, PA
Branda C. Maholtz unveils her solo exhibition "get (it) together" at The Ohringer Gallery on Saturday, June 14th from 5:30 to 9:00pm. This diverse showcase features a wide range of her work that invites serious contemplation but also explores a more lighthearted and humorous mood.
Branda’s show is colorful, approachable and a little in your face with an examination of the inherent interconnectedness of shared life experiences and what influences us to gain awareness and feel present. Her work is a celebration of contextual references, be they landscapes or abstractions—both real and unreal, physical and emotional. She pushes boundaries but makes it accessible.
The opening is free. The show runs through July 12, 2025. Private viewings by appointment.
The Ohringer Gallery in Braddock, PA is an art gallery and small event space on the first floor of a former furniture store that now offers 37 apartments for artists. The gallery features the residents’ work and will be branching out to include artists from the local community.
“get (it) together” Opening Reception
The Ohringer Gallery 640 Braddock Ave Braddock, PA 15104 Saturday June 14, 2025, 5:30pm-9:00pm
Braddock-based artist Branda C. Maholtz earned an MFA from Syracuse University and now works primarily in oil paint and pastels. Her work is known for its loose brushstrokes and a thoughtful, saturated palette that evokes an illusory, dream-like abstraction. Branda’s work has been selected for several Associated Artists of Pittsburgh shows, including the current Spring Thaw 2025: Alchemists in the Greenhouse, was a finalist for TenMoir Gallery’s Secret Garden 2025, shown at the juried Images 2024 Galley Exhibition, and received an Honorable Mention for the Pittsburgh Scene Innovation Grant in 2023.
On her work Branda reflects: “My own emotional vulnerability is offered for the taking—the last walk with a beloved pet, the grief of betrayal, love lost or gained, or the meaning found in what seemed so ordinary at first. In my work, I’m giving our feelings, and our experiences a collective sense of context or place for what only exists internally to become external and shared. I’m always trying to answer the question, “Where exactly do our emotions or experiences live once they have happened?’”
