Hosfelt Gallery : Julie Chang - New Work; Crystal Liu - weighing it out
Comment by AB: Julie Chang combines traditional motifs ad decorative elements from various cultures into ornamental and pattern works. Chinese influences as well as marbleization techniques are prominent in Crystal Liu's abstracted landscapes which also refer to emotional states.

Nancy Toomey Fine Art : Winter - Andrew Fisher, Betty Merken, Jimi Gleason, Miya Ando
Comment by AB: Andrew Fisher tells me his heavily gold leafed abstractions each contain approximately 3/4 ounce of gold. Definitely an option for all those people who talk about hanging investments on their walls.

Comment by AB: A wall of small fragment works by Linda Geary, tributes to cardboard by Laura Rokas, and bright colors applied to atypical materials by Sofie Ramos highlight this whimsical mix.

State Space : Strange Reprise - Maria Forde + Chris Thorson
Comment by AB: In this exciting episode of Ersatz Objects, Chris Thorson arts up a set of fake kiddie sticker scrapbooks and bogus hand mirrors. Always good. In the rear gallery, Maria Forde shares her wisdom and observations on classic Western films via pithy captioned graphite drawings.
