Pretty excited to be included in this exhibition opening this Fri,April 11,here's
some info regarding the artists that'll be exhibiting:
-John Shimon and Lauren Semivan have been working collaboratively to create over 100
cyanotype, or blueprint, photograms since 2018 in work they title Tangency. Inspired by
Robert Rauschenberg and Susan Weil’s blueprints created between 1949 and 1951, the
imprint of the human form on paper is ghostly and translucent. Tangency stretches
across time, space, and worldly dimensions. Selections from this ongoing body of work
are featured in this exhibition. They have previously been shown at The Meadows
Museum of Art in Shreveport, LA, the Denver Photographic Arts Center, and the Portrait
Society Gallery for Contemporary Art in Milwaukee, WI. The artists live and work in
Northeast Wisconsin.
-Katherine Steichen Rosing, of Madison, creates immersive installations that explore
environmental processes and phenomena in forests and watersheds.
Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries across the United States and
abroad. She has received numerous grants and awards including the Forward Art Prize
and the Madison Arts Commission/Wisconsin Arts Board Individual Artist Fellowship.
Her work is represented by Kim Storage Gallery (Milwaukee) and Groveland Gallery
(Minneapolis).
-Peter Koury is a distinguished, award-winning contemporary painter from De Pere, WI.
His work harnesses vibrant colors and realism to captivate the viewer, blending realism
with abstraction and symbolism to offer social commentary through the human
experience. Throughout his 30-year career, he has consistently integrated
environmental and conservation themes into his art. His most recent work is derived
from his photographic excursions, with birds as the most prevalent imagery depicted
from his travels.
A meet-the-artist reception will be held from 5-8 pm on April 11 coinciding with the
monthly Art Nite in Downtown De Pere. The exhibition will run from April 11 – May 23,
2025.
