SUMMARY:"Nature Songs"\, paintings by Yeachin Tsai
DESCRIPTION:The Sky Dancer\, acrylic on canvas\, 70 x 24 inches. \nThe Lake George Arts Project’s Courthouse Gallery presents Nature Songs\, a solo exhibition of paintings by Yeachin Tsai.\nView our Online Talk with Yeachin Tsai from October 3\, 2021 HERE. \nView a Checklist of works in the exhibition HERE.\nRead her full BIO HERE\, and learn more about her work at https://www.yeachintsaifineart.com.  Also\, check out this wonderful video on WMHT’s AHA! A House For Arts: Calligraphy Meets Abstraction with Yeachin Tsai \, and view Look TV’s recent episode of “Where’s Dayna?” HERE. \nYeachin Tsai’s art swings between the seen world of rhythmic colors and forms\, and the unseen world of momentum and energies. While growing up in Taiwan\, Tsai studied traditional Chinese brush painting and calligraphy\, and she would later incorporate that training into her work after moving to New York. Rather than building up a painting surface\, she creates a surface that soaks in paint – canvases prepared with grounds that behave like traditional rice paper\, pulling the paint in. \nSummer Vibes\, acrylic on canvas\, 66 x 56 inches.  \nShe says: “I’ve always been intrigued by form\, pattern and colors from nature. My interest may have started when I was four years old. I remember seeing the floating\, shining dust particles reflecting the sunlight in the stale attic air of my family’s old house. The magic quality of nowness left an unspeakable feeling in my mind… I want to create artwork that is primordial and timeless\, ancient yet modern. I wish to catch the symbolism and momentum of the flow. The materials are used to reflect the feelings and perceptions I have experienced in life – the ever changing\, transient\, fleeting moments of this dynamic\, chaotic yet harmonious worl \nYeachin Tsai earned her BFA degree from National Taiwan Normal University\, and MFA degree Brooklyn College of the City University of New York. Her recent exhibitions include Blue\, Gallery at 46 Green Street\, Hudson\, NY; Upstate Artists\, The Laffer Gallery\, Schuylerville\, NY; All is Safely Gathered In\, Spring Street Gallery\, Saratoga Springs\, NY; Small Works\, 440 Gallery\, Brooklyn\, NYC\,  Artists of the Mohawk Hudson Region (2019)Exhibition\, The Hyde Collection\, NY\, The Unusuals\, Invitational\, The Painting Center\, Chelsea\, NYC; Printmakers Open Portfolio (part of the Screenprint Biennial 2018)\, The Opalka Gallery\, Albany\, NY;  Creations: Connections and Collections\, Albany Center Gallery\, Albany\, NY; Article 13\, The LAB at Collar Works\, Troy\, NY; Endless Forms Most Beautiful\, Four Person Show\, Scarlet Seven Fine Art Gallery\, Troy\, NY; and Winter Joy\, a solo exhibition at Pause Gallery\, Troy\, New York in 2019.

SUMMARY:"Parallel Play"\, new work by Barbara Todd
DESCRIPTION:     \nThe Lake George Arts Project’s Courthouse Gallery presents Parallel Play\, a solo exhibition of new work by Barbara Todd. \n*Please note the gallery will be closed for Thanksgiving and Native American Heritage Day\, Nov 25\, and Friday Nov 26.\nView our November 20\, 2021 Online Talk with Barbara Todd HERE.\nRecent article from the Albany Times Union: Less is definitely more for artist Barbara Todd\nListen to  North Country Public Radio’s reporter Monica Sandreczki interview with Barbara Todd HERE\nListen to Barbara talk about her work on Look TV’s recent episode of “Where’s Dayna?”\nReview of the exhibition on Get Visual: A parallel play of Parallel Plays.\nView Checklist of works in the exhibition HERE. \nBarbara Todd is an internationally recognized interdisciplinary artist\, best known for her textile works. With a minimalist sensibility she draws inspiration from poems\, her personal experience and perceptions of the everyday. \nParallel Play is the term for a stage in early childhood development\, where children\, playing side by side\, do not interact\, though they may be doing the same thing. For example\, one may have a backhoe and the other may be playing with a crane\, but they do not cooperate to make something. Or\, if they’re at the beach they may each be building a sandcastle but they won’t build a city together. \nIn the context of this exhibition\, three related series of works: sewn fabric drawings\, large woolen quilts\, and tiny linen collages\, share the unique space of the Courthouse Gallery\, each adhering to its own\, independent\, installation plan. Seen together\, the works translate fleeting glimpses of color pairings into tactile reminders of place and experience\, becoming an abstract archive of things noticed. Just as one day folds into another\, and another\, it is their accumulation that gives form to the whole. \nTodd’s involvement with textiles began early. She says: “When I was seven years old my grandmother taught me how to knit. Our first project was a red mohair sweater.  At about the same time another well-intentioned mentor helped me to sew clothes for my Barbie doll. It’s possible my career as an artist began then… Ever since\, though I have worked with many different materials\, and read and looked widely\, textiles remain central to my practice. It’s the conversation between material and process and meaning that keeps me going”. \nBarbara Todd earned her B.A. in fine art from the University of Guelph in Ontario\, Canada. Her work has been featured in major exhibitions across Canada\, including her quilt series Security Blankets\, which was organized by the Southern Alberta Art Gallery\, and traveled throughout Canada from 1992 to 1995. More recent exhibitions include Sculpture – Art Textile\, Biennale de sculpture de St. Jean Port-Joli\, St. Jean Port-Joli\, Québec; Mohawk-Hudson Regional Invitational Exhibition (2020)\, Albany Center Gallery\, Albany\, NY; In Faux-Structure\, Opalka Gallery\, Albany\, NY; Artists of the Mohawk Hudson Region (2019)\, The Hyde Collection\, Glens Falls\, NY; Fait-main/Hand-made\, Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec\, Québec; Bombhead\, Vancouver Art Gallery\, Vancouver\, BC; Home – Collar Works\, Troy\, NY; Interwoven\, Albany Public Library\, Albany\, NY; Reclamation\, Collar Works\, Troy\, NY; and Barbara Todd: Colour Play\, Galerie Art Mûr\, Montréal\, QC. Her awards include grants from the Canada Council for the Arts\, the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec\, and residencies at Banff Centre for the Arts\, Banff\, Canada\, and Millay Colony\, Austerlitz\, NY. Her work is represented in many private and public collections\, including the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts\, the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec\, the Canada Council Art Bank\, the Vancouver Art Gallery\, the Winnipeg Art Gallery and the Canadian Museum of History. Her public commissions\, include “Many Little Plans” for the St. Patrick Subway Station in Toronto\, Canada and “Jardin de guérison” (Healing Garden)\, a one-hundred foot long colored glass mural for Sacred Heart Hospital\, Montréal. She has taught in the Studio Arts Department at Concordia University\, Montréal\, and in the Arts Department at Emma Willard School in Troy\, NY. Todd lives and works in Troy\, NY. You can learn more about her work at www.barbaratodd.com. \nThe Courthouse Gallery is located at the side entrance of the Old County Courthouse\, corner of Canada and Lower Amherst Streets in Lake George\, NY.  Hours during exhibitions are Wednesday through Friday 12 – 5 pm\, Saturday 12 – 4 pm\, and all other times by appointment.  Visit our calendar for more information. \nThis exhibition is funded in part by the New York State Council on the Arts; the Town and Village of Lake George; Price Chopper’s Golub Foundation; 518 Profiles; the Glen & Carol Pearsall Adirondack Foundation\, and LGAP members.

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”.

SUMMARY:Bugzdale (AKA Anthony Jackson)
DESCRIPTION:       \nThe Lake George Arts Project’s Courthouse Gallery presents “Community”\, a solo exhibition of work by Bugzdale (AKA Anthony Jackson). \nA previously scheduled Zoom conversation for May 7 has been canceled. Instead\, please join us for a Closing Reception for the artist on Saturday\, June 4\, from 2 – 4 pm! \nListen to North Country Public Radio’s interview with Bugzdale HERE! \nBugzdale is from Mandeville\, Jamaica\, and grew up in New York City. His Jamaican-American background\, and ties to communities in Queens\, NY\, and Jamaica\, as well as other places\, old family photos\, and memories\, all inform his art. Through drawing\, painting\, and a variety of other media Bugzdale aims to amplify ideas about the black experience in our society. He says: “I focus on the themes that affect my community: class\, race\, police brutality\, corrupt government\, death\, and other issues\, to show the way in which black men and women are made targets\, and to find a way to celebrate the lives of these under-represented individuals. I create a world where these people can survive\, and find a way to be themselves\, while being free from imprisonment\, both metaphorical and real. I want to represent the ‘humanness’ of these figures\, outside of media stereotypes”. \nBugzdale earned his Associates Degree of Applied Science in New Media Technology from LaGuardia Community College\, Long Island City\, NY\, and both his Bachelor of Fine Art Degree and Masters of Fine Art Degree in Studio Art from SUNY at Albany University. His awards include a Painting & Drawing Departmental Award and the Roanne Kulakoff Award\, both through SUNY Albany\, NY. His recent exhibitions include A Seat At The Table\, Likkle Gallery\, Queens\, NY; Infinite Uncertainty\, Opalka Gallery at Russell Sage College\, Albany\, NY; The Other Virus Exhibit\, Second St. Studios\, Troy\, NY\, and his MFA Thesis Show 2020\, SUNY Albany University Museum\, Albany\, NY.  In addition\, since 2018 Bugzdale has been participating in an ongoing exhibition and project titled Seeking Sanctuary; Life\, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness with the Underground Railroad Education Center\, Albany\, NY.  Learn more about his work at www.bugzdale.com. \nThe Courthouse Gallery is located at the side entrance of the Old County Courthouse\, corner of Canada and Lower Amherst Streets in Lake George\, NY. During scheduled exhibitions dates our in-person office and gallery hours are Wednesday through Friday 12 – 5 pm\, Saturday 12 – 4 pm. If you need to reach us between active exhibition dates we are available through phone and/or email:\nLaura Von Rosk\, Gallery Director\, 518.323.5499\, laura@lakegeorgearts.org\nTanya Tobias-Tomis\, Executive Director\, 518.832.0183\, tanya@lakegeorgearts.org \nThis exhibition is funded in part by the New York State Council on the Arts and the New York State Legislature; the Town and Village of Lake George; Price Chopper’s Golub Foundation; 518 Profiles; The Alfred Z Solomon Charitable Trust and LGAP members.
