comunicato stampa

artspace, is pleased to announce its exhibitions for the month of June.

In the Main gallery this June Artspace presents Ric Haynes: Local Mythology. Local Mythology is an exhibit of paintings and cartoon watercolor drawings by Boston based artist. The exhibit is about personal mythology that is derived from images that are found in popular American myth, cinema and history. Haynes is both a painter of still life, as well as an image maker with watercolor and pen. He was trained in Fine Arts, Anthropology, Psychology and Philosophy. Local Mythology is about the combining of two groups of images that ask the question of what is personal and what is universal to the viewer. Haynes questions the paradox of the imagination, the still life and the metaphor. Haynes is represented in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art, The Guggenheim Museum and Yale University, among other institutions. This is his first show in Richmond.

Local artist, Elaine Rogers will exhibit Recent Paintings in the Foyer gallery this June. Rogers' abstract imagery, created by layering color, manipulates structural ideas. These paintings, inspired by collage, have broken free from a flat stacking arrangement, resulting in volumetric and expressive form. Large shapes hover and twist, creating a dialogue for the viewer. Color themes and shape combine to relay a specific visual circumstance. Currently, Elaine Rogers is an adjunct faculty at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. Recent Paintings is her first show at Artspace.

Artspace member, Santa Sergio De Haven, will be exhibiting in the Helena Davis Gallery in June. Her show, Ratio and Proportion, is an exhibition of oil pastel drawings and small mixed media collages. De Haven draws layers of vivid fabric that build a stage for her simple still life arrangements. The collages echo the use of cloth in the drawings but here the cloth is "a found thing", images of fabric draped on table, bed, body that are abstracted from their context and arranged to produce dreamlike landscapes and still lifes. Some of the collages use the "cloth"
to hold a floating still life in a delicate balance of mass and color.

The exhibits open Friday, June 4th. The First Friday Opening Reception is from 6:30-10:30 pm, June 4, 2004. The gallery will also be open on the Fourth Friday, June 25th from 7:30-9 pm. All exhibits will close Sunday, June 27, 2004. Artspace is open Wednesday through Sunday, from 12 to 4 pm and by appointment.

artspace is located at Zero East 4th Street within Plant Zero, in the recently designated Arts District in Manchester, Richmond VA.
