The Oliver Art Center’s upcoming exhibition explores the elements as they inspire artists’ work in a variety of media. The exhibit opens with a reception on Friday, October 17 from 5:00 – 7:00 PM. The show will close with an Artist Talk on November 21 from 2:00 – 4:00 PM. Both the reception Artist Talk are free and open to the public.
The exhibit showcases the work of Michigan artists, Doug Staples of Lawrence, Kristianne Tefft of Midland, Marilyn Hoogstraten of Grawn, Shelley Stevens of Mt. Pleasant, Tom Tomasek of Ovid and Amy Gibas of Bay City. These artists employ oils, wax, printmaking, ceramics and other materials to interpret the effect of elemental properties on the world around us through paintings, photography, ceramics and sculpture.
