SUMMARY:"Living in Harm's Way"\, mixed media work by Kingsley Parker
DESCRIPTION:        \nView works in the exhibition HERE.\nView a checklist of works for sale HERE.\nView the edited recording of our Online Talk with Kingsley Parker  from January 29 HERE.\nRead “Dispatches from Life on the Edge“\, exhibition review from the Lake George Mirror.\n \nIn his solo exhibition\, “Living in Harm’s Way”\, multi-media artist Kingsley Parker continues his decades-long research and concern with all the myriad ways that humans interact with and extract from the natural world.  His works depict vulnerable environments: clear-cut forests\, overfished oceans\, bleached coral reefs\, plastic pollution\, and fishing villages where humans live on the margins of changing sea levels. \nUsing recycled materials\, such as wooden door frames\, Styrofoam\, flocking\, and other found objects\, he creates poignant images and installations – a mix of paintings\, drawings\, prints\, and sculpture – that address serious topics\, but that are often balanced with humor. He says: “I also just want to make interesting visuals. It’s art; I’m not on a soapbox. And I try for a light touch\, to keep a bit of humor in it… Even though these are important issues\, I like being a little ironic and humorous about them\, so it is not so serious and not so ‘down’ an experience to look at these… but it is something that sticks with you\, rather than repels you…” \nParker’s sensitivity toward his subjects\, whether it is an intricate sculptural replica of a fishing village\, or paintings\, drawings and prints of ocean wildlife\, trees\, or maps\, his empathetic hand\, through a variety of mediums\, leaves reasons for hope. While referencing the abuse and imbalance of our planet’s resources\, either through land or sea\, and the accelerated change to our environments\, economies\, and the natural world as we currently know it\, there is also a sense of the doggedness determination of life to persist under such constraints. \nKingsley Parker earned his BA in American Literature from Middlebury College VT\, and MA in Fine Arts from Hunter College in New York City.  He also studied sculpture at University of Hartford Art School\, and printmaking at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston MA. His recent solo exhibitions include A World of Hurt (2021)\, and Oceans Apart (2016) at Thompson Giroux Gallery\, Chatham\, NY; UpRiver\, my journey home\, Walnut Hill Fine Art\, Hudson\, NY; UpRiver installation\, Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology\, New York\, NY; and Diminishing Expectations\, Bond Street Gallery\, Brooklyn\, NY. His work has been featured in group exhibitions at Albany Center Gallery; Albany Institute of History and Art\, Albany International Airport Gallery\, Albany\, NY; Re-Institute\, Millerton\, NY; Kentler International Drawing Space\, Red Hook\, NY; Time and Space Limited\, Hudson\, NY; City University\, Jersey City NJ; and the Hyde Collection\, Glen Falls\, NY. His awards include a Visual Arts Sea Grant of Rhode Island; a scholarship from ArtWeek\, Great Spruce Head Island\, ME; a $10\,000 grant from AE Ventures for a printmaking sabbatical in Italy; and residencies at the Scuola Internazionale di Grafica\, Venezia\, Italia; Tipoteca Italiana\, Museo del Carattere e del la Tipografia\, Cornuda\, Italia; and a six month Scholarship residency at Manhattan Graphics Center.

SUMMARY:"Games of Chance"\, paintings by Fern T. Apfel
DESCRIPTION:       \nThe Lake George Arts Project’s Courthouse Gallery presents “Games of Chance”\, a solo exhibition of paintings by Fern T. Apfel. \nListen to NCPR’s interview with Fern HERE.\nView Dayna Peck’s interview with Fern on Look TV’s recent episode of “Where’s Dayna?” HERE.\nView our online talk with the artist from Saturday\, March 19 HERE.\n \nAbstraction and narration fold together in Fern Apfel’s acrylic paintings. Her images contain memorabilia she has collected over many years.  Playing cards\, letters\, handwritten notes and other various ephemera are placed on top\, or layered above\, colored backgrounds in an intentionally considered minimal composition. In our contemporary time\, where so much communication is digital\, and emails are often deleted\, these painted objects can center and ground us in the physical world\, reminding us of our connections and threads of discourse through time\, triggering memory\, as well as recording our lives. Intricate and intimate\, all the lettering is done freehand. \nShe says: “Most of the letters in my paintings can be read. They come from different decades and locations\, but their content is amazingly and endearingly timeless. My paintings are about tracking the days of our lives: what we did when\, who we saw\, wrote to or thought about. Carefully placed\, an empty notebook can evoke an elusive and often ambiguous new meaning\, and a box of old playing cards can remind us of a past time. Playing cards can become our companions on a rainy afternoon or our accomplices in a magic trick. They suggest that we ponder the notion of chance and unpredictability in our lives”. \nFern Apfel earned her BA at the State University of NY at New Paltz\, and also studied at The Art Students League of New York. She has exhibited widely in the Hudson Valley & Capital Region of New York where she lives. Currently her work is included in a show titled Pieced Together\, at Pine Bush Library in Albany\, NY\, and a solo exhibition of her work will take place in early 2023 (date TBA) in the Main Gallery of The Arts Center of the Capital Region in Troy\, NY.  Recent past exhibitions include The Vision of Care\, Woodstock Art Association. & Museum (Juror: Robert Shane\, The Brooklyn Rail); Fence & Fence Select\, The Art center of the Capital Region\, Troy\, NY; One in a Year 2020: Virtual Exhibition\, The Painting Center\, NY\, NY; Fence & Fence Select – Best in Show\, The Art Center of the Capital Region\, Troy\, NY (Juror: Ian Berry\, Director of The Tang Teaching Museum\, Skidmore College); Making a Way\, South Bend Museum of Art\, South Bend\, IN; 2020 National Juried Exhibition\, First Street Gallery\, NY\, NY (Juror: Andrew Arnot\, Tibor de Nagy Gallery); National Prize Show\, Cambridge\, MA Art Assoc. (Juror: Sharon Butler\, Two Coats of Paint); About What’s Going On\, Hopkinton Center for the Arts\, Hopkinton\, MA; En Masse\, Thompson Giroux Gallery\, Chatham\, NY; Upstate Invitational 2019\, Laffer Gallery\, Schuylerville\, NY (Juror: Laura Von Rosk); Ear to the ground\, Ely Center for Contemporary Art\, New Haven\, CT (Curator: Julie Torres).  In addition\, Apfel’s work has been has exhibited at the Davis Orton and Concepto Galleries in Hudson\, NY; The Ely Center for Contemporary Art in New Haven\, CT; PULP Gallery in Holyoke\, MA; Albany Center Gallery\, Albany\, NY; and Collar Works\, Troy\, NY.  Her work has been included in numerous presentations of “Artists of the Mohawk Hudson Regionial”\, and she is four-time recipient of “Mohawk Hudson Regional Purchase Awards”.
