Gallery Exhibition: MAVIS SMITH / THINK AGAIN

Joan and Robert Rechnitz Hall

Imagining the hidden realities of other people’s existences is a continuing theme in the work of Bucks County artist Mavis Smith. Smith, who’s works are often done in egg tempera, brings an almost surreal aesthetic to her paintings that further suggests the dislocation of appearances and realities. This exhibition samples a range of Smith’s work from years past, as well as several new pieces, including both paintings and works on paper as well as some recent sculptural works incorporating egg shells. Opening Reception: Fri. September 19, from 7 – 9 pm
