Gallery 55 First Saturday March Reception

Posted in Art, Art Lecture, Event, Gallery, Mixed Media, Reception on February 12, 2020|

“Fall Berries I” by Thea Belecz

We have a special treat for our First Saturday Reception in March, a presentation from collage artist Thea Belecz called “Patterns in Nature.” Ms. Belecz observes the “repeating patterns in nature wherever she goes and records those patterns with her camera and sketch book.” Those recordings then become essential material for her artwork, as she references or wholly incorporates them into fantastical works on fiber or paper. Join us for Thea’s presentation on “how and why she puts it all together.” For more about Thea Belecz and her work, see theabelecz.com.

Visit with Thea and view her art and the art of over twenty regional artists on March 7, 4-7 p.m., with complimentary wine and appetizers. Thea’s presentation will begin at 5:00 p.m.

Gallery Fifty-Five is a nonprofit artist cooperative.

When: Saturday, March 7, 4-7 pm.
Where: Gallery Fifty-Five, 311 E. Lake Street, McCall, Idaho
Admission: Free

Gallery 55 First Saturday, February Reception

Posted in Art, Event, Gallery, Mixed Media, Music, Reception, Sculpture on January 18, 2019|

“Room for One More” by Pam McKnight

We have a sweetheart of a month coming up at the gallery. Assemblage artist Pam McKnight joins us in February as our guest from her studio, “Every Little Thing,” where she constructs delightful sculptures and tableaux from small found objects that you will recognize: doll parts, craft décor, scraps of paper and wood and more. Her creations beg for storytelling. At the other end of the scale, we also feature our own Allen Malaise, who creates large wildlife bronzes using the ancient art of lost-wax casting. Come to our reception during Winter Carnival for these exceptional artists on February 2, 4-8 p.m., and welcome the St. Luke’s McCall Auxiliary who will be providing the appetizers for the evening! You’ll want to hear more from them about the exciting work that the Auxiliary does for our community and how to join them in this valuable work.

Meet the artists and view the art by over twenty local and regional artists at our First Saturday reception, February 2, 4-8 p.m., with music by Judy Berg, wine by Bistro 45 and appetizers by St. Luke’s McCall Auxiliary.
