Opening Reception: America Martin: Solo Show

Opening reception on Saturday, November 1 from 6 to 8pm
America Martin is inspired by form and figure as depicted by the Modernists of the early 20th century. A concentration on line using flat color reduces her subjects to their simplest shapes, highlighting the beauty and strength of a moment. The moments in this show focus on relationships: between that of mother and child, the embrace of a lover, or the bond among friends.
America Martin is represented across the country and internationally collected. She is based in Los Angeles and rural Maine.

Established in 1980 and located in a 120 year old historic house, the Wally Workman Gallery specializes in emerging and collected talent. Known for encouraging their artists' professional and creative growth, the gallery has advanced local artists onto the national stage for decades. It is the combination of these long-standing relationships and the potential of new partnerships that make the gallery's program dynamic and accessible. The gallery has two stories of exhibition space where one can view the 50+ artists currently represented, including the contemporary talents of Sarah Ferguson, Joyce Howell and Will Klemm as well as the figurative work of Patrick Puckett and America Martin.
Parking is available in the lot behind the gallery, accessed from the alley off Blanco and Harthan Streets. There you will find two dedicated spots as well as other parking options. Unrestricted street parking is available on Blanco St. and parking is allowed after 7pm on Harthan St.
