It’s a way to process and relate to the world\, like conversing with a person or chewing food. My first response to an idea or event is to interpret it\, to make it something I can see. A phrase like “drunken centaur\,” doesn’t go far on its own\, but by turning it over this way and that\, finding forms for invisible notions\, and inviting in accident and precedent\, painting becomes a space of illumination. It’s a way to get past words. In the open space of the page\, metaphors popup like sudden jokes\, fully formed and emblematic. Imagination here isn’t about escape or fancy; it’s a matter of engaging the mind’s eye as the primary interpretive tool. \nI use oil paints\, often making my own. It’s mesmerizing stuff that takes on endless qualities. It mixes so easily with the eye\, ready to become something\, making suggestions as if it has its own desires. Looking closely into it shows something of the mystery of substance and representation altogether\, of how the material world conspires with perception\, mind\, and knowledge to make up our experience. I pay attention to the vitality of the paint layers and the movement of the surface. There are moments like “ah\, I’ve seen that in so and so”—passages of paint that share in a lineage. \nI paint with a range of historical approaches not to mimic a look\, but as a practice. There’s wisdom in method and material. There’s richness. Technical investigation sheds light on and expands the creative process beyond notions of a verisimilitude or style. Painting is an outlook. Rather than just dressing up the ancients in modern clothes\, I see these processes as incisive analytical tools\, like finding an old hand-ground lens that still magnifies whatever it’s placed in front of. \nBio \nJeff Wigman has shown regularly since moving his studio upstate in 2006. His work has been exhibited in venues such as The Albany Institute of History and Art\, Albany\, NY; Opalka Gallery\, Albany\, NY; The Hyde Collection\, Glens Falls\, NY; Manifest Gallery\, Cincinnati\,OH; Bowery Gallery\, Manhattan; Good Naked Gallery\, Brooklyn; and Kunstverein Eisenstadt\, Austria. Jeff earned a BFA in painting and sculpture from Parsons School of Design in 1992. He grew up in southern Ohio and lives and works in Troy\, New York. \n\n\n\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				 \nThe Courthouse Gallery is located at the side entrance of the Old County Courthouse\,corner of Canada and Lower Amherst Streetsin Lake George\, NY.\nDuring scheduled exhibitions dates our in-person office and gallery hours areWednesday through Friday 12 – 5 pm& Saturdays 12 – 4 pm.\nIf you would like to visit exhibitions outside of Gallery hours or request a tour for a group\, please contact June Waters\, Director of Exhibitions (contact information below)\nIf you need to reach us between active exhibition dates we are available through email:\nJune Waters\, Director of Exhibitions\, june@lakegeorgearts.org\nTanya Tobias-Tomis\, Executive Director\, tanya@lakegeorgearts.org\n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				THANK YOU!This exhibition is funded in part by the Town of Lake George\, the Village of Lake George\, The New York State Council on the Arts\, the Glenn & Carol Pearsall Foundation\, the Alfred Z.

SUMMARY:Jazz Around Town: Scott Hopkins Trio @ Gaslight
DESCRIPTION:The Scott Hopkins Jazz Trio features stalwart jazzers Lou Smaldone on bass and Brian Melick on drums with Hopkins on electric banjo. Repertoire of the trio includes a combination of standards and contemporary tunes with flares of bluegrass and folk influences from Hopkins and the Latin grooves and instruments of Melick. Everything is held together by the rock-solid but flexible bass playing of Smaldone creating a unique ensemble sound and approach. Joining the trio for this performance will be pianist extraordinaire Erik Kihss from New York City! \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				Check out their menu!\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				91 Canada StreetLake George\, NY 12801518.685.3487 \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				Gaslight.

I dined at the bar and had a chance to talk to several of the staff; they were all friendly and knowledgable- I really appreciated this. Third\, the owner came over and chatted with me and asked me how my meal was\, that’s uncommon and it’s a mark of a good establishment.

SUMMARY:Jazz Around Town: Dylan Perrillo & Brad Brose @ The East Cove
DESCRIPTION:Bassist\, Dylan Perrillo (from Hot Club of Saratoga and the Dylan Perrillo Quartet) will be joined by NYC-based guitarist Brad Brose for a one-of-a-kind jazz experience that will have fans of gypsy and swing jazz moving in their seats.  \nAbout Dylan Perrillo: Dylan grew up in the sunshiny village of Voorheesville\, New York where was he fortunate enough to have participated in their wonderful music program beginning in primary school. Originally having played guitar at the age of seven\, he found that his skills were rendered useless when his older brother\, Tyler\, began playing guitar as well. Thus\, it became clear to the young lad that switching over to the electric bass was necessary. When Dylan entered his studies at Schenectady County Community College he began to learn to play the upright bass and began playing with musicians from around the capital district. Since then\, he has had the pleasure of performing with some really great people from all over the country.  \nAbout Brad Brose: Originally from Hollywood\, California\, Brad Brose has performed with some of the best swing musicians that the U.S. has to offer. After playing in swing dance clubs and for festivals across the USA\, Brad decided to move to France to study Europe’s greatest contribution to jazz: Jazz Manouche. Now based in Paris\, he plays his gypsy jazz guitar along with the most respected jazz manouche artists such as Tchavolo Schmitt\, Stochelo Rosenberg\, and others in the all of the legendary gypsy jazz clubs and festivals across Europe. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				Check out their menu!\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				3873 NY-9LLake George518.685.5224 \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				The East Cove\nSteaks\, Seafood\, Chicken\, Pasta\, And More In A Cozy\, Newly Remodeled Setting!Come experience Hearty American eats in a laid-back cabin with a mezzanine lounge at East Cove. We are a Lake George staple that recently reopened under new ownership and management.

SUMMARY:Zikina
DESCRIPTION:Zikina\n7pm: Zikina is a group of people who came from across continents and cultures to show that despite all the forces in the world that emphasize our differences and try to diminish and pull us apart\, we can come together to make something beautiful and new. It doesn’t take long for this music to get you dancing\, clapping along\, connecting with the people around you\, and savoring the beauty of the present moment. You might start with curiosity when Uganda native Gideon Ampeire draws you in with a variety of traditional East African instruments that are rare and fascinating to US audiences\, including enanga (zither)\, adungu (harp)\, and kalimba (thumb piano) – all of which he builds himself. \nOnce your interest is piqued by the instruments\, you’ll quickly discover that there’s so much more to the band. Mike Cardozo (guitar\, percussion) improvises intricate melodic conversations with Gideon and dances through the beat with punchy rhythmic lines. Roston Kirk (bass) and Kade Parkin (drums) weave a sonic landscape that flows seamlessly from intense grooves to joyous dance beats to dreamy textures. Gideon’s vocals cut powerfully through the fabric or float lightly above. It all adds up to something completely unique\, yet immediately accessible.

SUMMARY:A Conversation With the Artist: Paul Mauren
DESCRIPTION:A Conversation with the Artist:Clusters\, New Work by Paul MaurenWednesday\, July 26 at 7pmZOOM LINKPaul’s Mauren’s craftsmanship and technical ingenuity allow him to build from an agglomeration of natural and human-made materials in intriguing\, and often unexpected ways. Join our conversation with Paul to hear about his work\, his technique for creating his unique sculptures and his creative process. \n			\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				About the WorkPaul Mauren’s unique sculptural works stem from observations and memories of the natural world\, melded with an improvisational approach in combining various shapes\, materials\, and imagery. His elegant\, gestural works are the product of a well-established personal studio practice\, as well as working as an educator for many years. His craftsmanship and technical ingenuity allow him to build from an agglomeration of natural and human-made materials in intriguing\, and often unexpected ways. \nMauren states: “Conceptual strategies\, improvised construction methods\, and structural inventions drive my sculptural ideas and processes. Important influences for my work derive from observing the endless diversity of unembellished winter-woodland ecosystems. I am not interested in illustrating landscape. Instead\, I prefer to explore a broad range of compatible and disparate relationships that offer promise and resistance\, opening opportunities to engage in the discovery of freshly animated forms. This leads to unexpected revelations infused with history and disjointed conclusions.” \nAbout the ArtistPaul Mauren earned his BFA and MFA at Eastern Michigan University. During the early 1980s\, he served as Master Teacher of Sculpture at The New York State Summer School for the Arts\, sponsored by the New York State Education Department and the State University of New York at Fredonia. He was a Professor of Art at The Center for Art and Design\, the College of Saint Rose for 40 years\, where he taught undergraduate and graduate sculpture since 1978. Paul is an alumni residency artist at Sculpture Space\, Inc. in Utica\, NY\, and he recently participated in the Salem-to-Salem artist residency program at Salem Art Works in Salem\, NY. \nMauren’s recent exhibitions include “Rebound”\, Five New York State Artists\, Sandy Hills Arts Center\, Hudson Falls\, NY\, Curated by Dan Cameron.  “Force”\, curated by Pearl Cafritz at the Southern Vermont Arts Center\, Manchester\, VT\, and “Something”\, Mauren Sculpture / Brodie Painting\, a two-person exhibition at the Onondaga Community College gallery\, Syracuse\, NY.  He has exhibited widely\, with exhibitions in New York State at Albany Center Gallery\, Albany; Art/Omi\, Ghent; Jamaica Art Center\, Queens; Albany Institute of History and Art\, Albany; Albany International Airport Gallery\, Albany; Sculpture Center\, New York City; Hudson Valley Community College\, Troy; Queens College\, Queens; Hartwick College\, Oneonta; Union College\, Schenectady; Opalka Gallery\, Sage Colleges\, Albany; Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute\, Utica. His work has also been included in exhibitions at Williams College\, Williamstown\, MA; Southern Vermont Arts Center\, Manchester\, VT; Chesterwood Museum\, Stockbridge\, MA; University of Michigan\, Ann Arbor\, MI; and Columbus Museum of Art\, Columbus\, OH.
