Caldwell Snyder Gallery : Empty Rooms - Douglas Schneider; Jupp Linnsen.
Comment by AB: Dreams, reveries and memories populate these subconscious sojourns by Douglas Schneider. In the rear gallery, Jupp Linnsen's abstracts are adventures in surface and texture. Good art on both counts.

Dolby Chadwick Gallery : Jaq Chartier - A Fever in Matter.
Comment by AB: Inspired by chemistry and science, Jaq Chartier's color-rich compositions resemble among other things, DNA charts, microscopic organisms or the results of spectral analysis. Go see.

Haines Gallery : David Nash; Pierre Cordier & Gundi Falk.
Comment by AB: Striking rough-cut wood sculptures by David Nash are exquisite in their delicacy. Equally meticulous "chemigrams" by Pierre Cordier & Gundi Falk blend paint and photography. This show's a definite yes.
