Catch the Maybaum Gallery Exhibition of Simon Nicholas in San Francisco

We are pleased to introduce a new artist to our roster, British painter- Simon Nicholas. "Using formal elements such as underlying grids, repetition and pattern, I wish to create pictures which swing ambiguously between figuration and abstraction." -Nicholas This series is based on gallery and museum spaces, where the borders between reality, fiction and photographic representation are brought into question. The perceptive process in these paintings is apparently reversed: the viewers in the gallery often appear to be seen from the perspective of the actual paintings hanging on the wall. The paintings are entirely dependent on a working process of “making it up as you go along”, the results more often than not being the sum of an endless series of corrections and over-paintings. To view the full collection please click here. Please stop by the gallery to view these museum quality works in person. Kind Regards, Christina Maybaum Gallery 49 Geary Street, Suite 416 San Francisco, CA 94108 415.658.7669 Gallery Hours: Tuesday - Saturday 10:30am - 5:30pm

Catch the The Sag Harbor Whaling Museum & Historical Society educational programs!!!

Brief Survey for the Sag Harbor Whaling Museum Education Program

The Sag Harbor Whaling Museum is planning to pilot the Sag Harbor Maritime Conservation Center for Children with a summer education program. The program consists of four one-week sessions in which students ages 8-12 take classes that integrate marine conservation, art projects inspired by the Museum’s collection, and visits from local artists, maritime industry professionals, and environmentalists. Weekly session topics include: · Ocean Cycles and ‘Up Cycling” Marine Debris – Learn about ocean conservation and the challenge of marine debris in our seas and beaches. The program culminates in creating an art piece from recycled debris.  · Young Detectives - Learn about the life of Sag Harbor village children in ages past by deciphering clues from historical toys and objects. Design and build toys telling your story of village life today.  · Luring a Fish (or Whale!) – Discover techniques used by fisherman over the last 400 years. Visiting fishermen can teach the children how it’s responsibly done today including how they build traps, nets, lures and even shellfish hatcheries.  · A Young Person’s View: Telling Personal Stories Through Words and Pictures - Reflect on how villagers have told their stories of coastal life over time. Children work with local writers and artists to express their modern-day coastal experiences. The objectives are to: · Celebrate Sag Harbor’s maritime culture and history through the Museum’s collection and community.  · Engage children with local artists, writers, tradesman, and maritime industry professionals.  · Teach youth to engage with the waterfront and marine ecosystem in environmental responsible, culturally aware and creative ways. The sessions will have a capacity of 10-12 students and will be held in the Whaling Museum’s galleries, classroom and grounds. The classes are designed and led by a qualified marine science educator and teaching assistant with contributions from the Museum’s Curator and special guests. We ask that you kindly help us design our Pilot Program by providing feedback in the 1-minute survey here:

April 23, 6-9 PM catch a Circle of Friends at the Ivy Brown Gallery

A Circle of Friends by Paul Wirhun Tuesday, April 2, 6-8pm

Circle of Friends Ivy Brown Gallery celebrates the Easter season with the opening of ‘A Circle of Friends’ by Paul Wirhun. Wirhun explores the emotional roller coaster of loss and the changes it brings. “Death is the ultimate change; we leave behind all we knew and experienced and enter the Unknown.  For those left behind, the death of a loved one can reveal a host of emotions linked to the memories of the dearly departed. To explore this range of experience, I discivered these “skullys” – images based in Tibetan iconography – to be a perfect vehicle.  Found in the crowns of protective (demonic) deities, these crazed-looking skulls force us to face the unimaginable with irrational delight.  How DO we handle the complex emotions elicited by our experiences of mortality and loss of dear ones seemingly gone forever?  How do we keep alive strong bonds of caring and support, when a beloved has died?” This show intends to explore these feelings through a series of drawings, eggshell collages, and objets d’ouef. PAUL WIRHUN has been working on and with eggshells most of his life, using these organic spherical surfaces to produce innovative objets d’ouef, and broken shells to create collages and eggshell encrusted sculptures. His mastery of these materials comes from a life-long interest in exploring the range of possible expressions in this unique media.
