Anthologies in Flux at the Washington Pavilion

A few weeks ago Nate and I went in to Sioux Falls for the evening to attend the opening for Anthologies in Flux, a show featuring the work of Diana Behl, Ceca Cooper, and Liz Heeren.  It was a great show!


Each of the artists had abstract work that borrowed beautifully from the world around us.





{Concurrent - by Liz Heeren}

Liz Heeren's pieces were both quiet and grandiose; abstractions of a silent underwater world in which nature and man-made structures collide.  They are both beautiful and uneasy.

{Ceca Cooper}

Ceca Cooper's work is deeply connected to the natural world here in eastern South Dakota.  There is a flatness in her paintings that presses the subjects in her painting right up to the viewer, giving them the ability to see the world through her eyes.







{Diana Behl - March}

Diana Behl's work is also deeply influenced by her surroundings, these paintings are from a series of works named after the months.  They evoke a sense of familiarity - they seem like snippets of memories.  Their abstract quality makes them easy to become immersed in.

If you live nearby, you really ought to make it out to this show.  It is located in the Washington Pavilion and runs through November 13th.
