CURRENT EXHIBITIONS

4th Rochester Biennial
July 25–September 26, 2010 (exhibition opening party July 24)
in the Grand Gallery

This biennial invitational showcases recent work by six regional artists—A. E. Ted Aub of Geneva (sculpture), Anne Havens of Rochester (multiple media), Rick Hock of Rochester (digital imaging), Alberto Rey of Fredonia (painting and video), Lawrence M. “Judd” Williams of Spencerport ( sculpture) and Julianna Furlong Williams of Spencerport (painting). They were selected by director Grant Holcomb, director of exhibitions Marie Via and curator of education Marlene Hamann-Whitmore. In keeping with recent tradition, Havens was chosen on the strength of her entry in last summer’s Rochester-Finger Lakes Exhibition.

This exhibition is sponsored by the Elaine P. and Richard U. Wilson Foundation, with additional support from ESL Federal Credit Union, Edward and Marilynn McDonald, and the Rubens Family Foundation.

Episodes from an Unwritten History: Claude Bragdon and Fritz Trautmann
August 13–December 12, 2010
in the Lockhart Gallery

This exhibition showcases Rochester artists and visionaries Claude Bragdon and Fritz Trautmann, whose shared ideas about cosmic forces in art and life fueled a steady friendship until Bragdon’s death in 1946. While Bragdon—architect, author, and stage designer—has been the subject of books and exhibitions in recent years, this will be the first examination of Trautmann’s contributions as a colorist, longtime teacher at the Gallery’s Creative Workshop, and painter of Galaxy, a visitor favorite.

Presented in honor of Jean France, architectural historian.
