SUMMARY:Featured Artists Exhibit for June/July 2019
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Berkeley Grimball\, Jim Lux\, Jim Oleson\, Mary Stone Lamb and Phillip Welch \nSHOW WILL RUN FROM JUNE 11TH-AUGUST 3RDRECEPTION: FRIDAY\, JUNE 14TH\, 6-8PMARTIST TALK: JULY 12TH\, 6-8PM \nThe June/July Exhibition at FRANK will be highlighting the work of member artists Mary Stone Lamb and Jim Oleson as well as guest artists Berkeley Grimball\, Jim Lux\, and Phillip Welch. This diverse exhibit will showcase the art of the five talented artists and their mediums of encaustic wax\, wood\, ceramic\, and jewelry. \nHaving a background representing a multitude of artistic styles\, Mary Stone Lamb is currently working with the encaustic wax medium. Through encaustics Lamb is able to create beautiful\, abstract pieces with rich textures and a structural quality. Rather than trying to fight the nature of encaustic wax\, Lamb has perfected working with the medium to create sumptuous\, textural pieces which encapsulate a type of depth often not found with other mediums. \nWith a brilliant body of work in functional wood furniture\, Jim Oleson has more recently taken the design quality of his furniture and implemented it into creating remarkable sculptures. A commonality with all of Oleson’s work is his exceptional designs and his incredibly high level of craftsmanship. We are thrilled to be presenting his newest designs for this highly anticipated exhibit. \nBerkeley Grimball\, owner of Grimball Jewelers a Chapel Hill institution\, will be showcasing his beautifully handcrafted and inventive jewelry. Drawing on his long career as a designer\, jewelry maker\, as well as his background as a musician\, Grimball uses parts of instruments to create exceptional and finely crafted pieces of wearable art. \nWith a unique process combining time tested techniques and his own personal methods\, Jim Lux creates beautiful pieces of pottery with distinctive finishes.  Building his pieces with coils of clay pinched together and then expertly smoothed and finished by hand\, Lux then fires his pieces in an electric kiln followed by covering his pieces in organic material and lit on fire. This interesting process creates fascinating surface textures which are made even the more fascinating when finished with wax and metallic powders. \nBelieving that form and function are inseparable\, Phillip Welch creates “art as furniture.” With precision\, individuality and utility\, Welch builds pieces that stand the test of time but with a unique twist. For the first time showing at FRANK gallery\, please help us in celebrating his work. We look forward to sharing this exciting exhibit with the public and hope to see you at the opening reception on June 14th\, from 6-8pm and Artist Talk on July 12th\, from 6-8pm.

SUMMARY:Featured Artists Exhibit for August/September 2019
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Katherine Armacost\, Nikki Blair\, Natalie Boorman\, Marguerite Jay Gignoux\, Linda Prager & Carol Retsch-Bogart \nSHOW WILL RUN FROM AUGUST 6TH-OCTOBER 5THRECEPTION: FRIDAY\, AUGUST 9TH\, 6-8PMMUSIC SALON: SUNDAY\, SEPTEMBER 8TH\, 6-7PMARTIST TALK: THURSDAY\, SEPTEMBER 12TH\, 6-8PM \nThe months of August and September will be a celebration of a diverse and extremely talented group of females artists entitled 6@FRANK. This exciting exhibit will showcase paintings by member artists and ceramicists Natalie Boorman and Linda Prager\, guest ceramic artist Nikki Blair\, mixed media work by member Carol Retsch-Bogart\, paintings by Katherine Armacost and textile work by Marguerite Jay Gignoux. \nPlease join us on Friday\, August 9th 6-8pm for the opening of “6 @ FRANK” the new exhibit for August/September. Live music by Red Nucleus! Refreshments will be provided. Event is free. As a special treat\, on Sunday\, September 8th\, the group “Sail Away Ladies” made up of Linda Prager and her musical partners\, Irene Felsman and Mitzi Quint will be putting on a musical salon from 6-7pm. The artist talk will be on Thursday\, September 12th\, from 6-8pm. We hope to see you all for one or all of these events!Katherine Armacost’s oil paintings are inspired by the world around her\, letting her imagination and her creativity take the lead\, Katherine has a dialogue with her paintings that often end in a different way then they have begun. Having her work in private collections all over the world is a true testament to the universality of her incredible work. \nNikki Blair is currently an Associate Professor in Ceramics at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. Her ceramic work is bold and graphic\, often working with a slab technique in building her pieces\, she creates large scale vessels that are functional and fantastical. In describing her aesthetic she says\, “my work harks back to the shiny bright futurism of post WWII architecture and product design.” Nikki has had her work displayed in museums and galleries across the country. \nHand building her work through the pinch pot method\, Natalie Boorman\, forms clay as almost a meditative experience\, taking each step of the process as a way to build a relationship with her vessels. Natalie then finishes her pots with burnishings\, bisque firing\, raku and pit firing. The added smokiness of the final product returns the story of the clay back to a new beautiful organic form. \nHaving a multitude of talents and media to her name\, Marguerite Jay Gignoux\, the current work of Marguerite (Peg) really showcases the creativity she has with textile and fiber art. Using the textures\, shapes and colors from fabrics and paper to form the base of her work\, through collage she then brings it all together with intricate hand stitching and weaving to create intensely beautiful and imaginative works. \nWhile also being talented in many different arenas and artistic media\, Linda Prager’s ceramic work will be highlighted in the August/September show. Handbuilding and working often with the slab technique\, Linda is constantly inspired by the use of objects around her to create interesting and dynamic textures in her clay. The pieces she creates are both architectural and organic in form and design. Linda calls her pieces functional vessels\, and she uses layers of colors and textures to enhance their shapes\, and also to draw the viewers’ eyes into the surface. \nCarol Retsch-Bogart is always challenging herself as an artist; Carol often uses textiles\, encaustic medium\, paper\, and pigments to create her stunning mixed-media pieces.Instead of making the materials conform to her work\, Carol works with the materials and makes them truly shine. Marrying originality and purpose\, Carol’s finished pieces are always alluring and unique.
