Four Artists: A Closer Look
First Street Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of recent paintings by Pesya Altman, Pernel Berkeley and Ellen Burgin and mezzotint engravings by printmaker Jacob Crook, curated by artist April Gornik.
The exhibition celebrates the art of these four artists, all of whom were in the Gallery鈥檚 November 2024 National Juried Exhibition, juried by Gornik. Given an unexpected exhibition opportunity the following month, the Gallery invited April Gornik to curate a more narrowly focused exhibition, a 鈥渃loser look鈥� at the work of four artists of her choosing from the previous show.
In this exhibition, each artist has a representative body of work in their primary media: strong works that have a distinct character, use of rich color, or the communion of light and dark. As different as their work is from each other鈥檚, they share a common thirst for discovery, and a deep engagement with their materials and the themes that excite them.
