Full Figured Neon Kiss
Brett Wesley Gallery is proud to present Full Figured Neon Kiss, opening exhibition March 4th at 6pm. This exhibition will feature established painters Constance Edwards Scopepolis from Indianapolis, Kristine McCallister from Las Vegas and Sculptures by Christopher Schulz from Los Angles.
Constance Edwards Scopepolis - Constance creates narrative figure paintings. These works contain neo-classical elements, subliminal imagery and symbols that represent mythology or personal storytelling. Constance’s masterful skill at rendering the human form is always combined with a deep psychological imagination.
Kristine McCallister – Kristine has created a body of work during many Plein Air sessions at the Neon Boneyard titled Sal Segav. Sal Segav was an Indian themed casino back in 1930’s and spells Las Vegas backwards. Kristine’s keen observation of these rescued historic neon signs has evolved into a charming collection of small paintings with large Americana appeal. The rusted monolithic tombstones of old Vegas resemble a patchwork of Las Vegas history that changes everyday.
Exhibition dates February 4, 2010 — March 27, 2010
Brett Wesley art receptions are held the first Thursday of every month at 1112 S. Casino Center Blvd. on the corner of Charleston Blvd. The gallery building itself is a nod to mid-century modernism, urban chic and classic American roadside architecture. Brett W. Sperry recently won the prestigious Urban Design Award from Mayor Oscar Goodman for the building design.
What makes Brett Wesley distinctive is its selection of stunning works by emerging and established painters, photographers, and sculptors from around the world. The gallery also hosts several cultural events, speaking engagements, and educational seminars throughout the year. Owner Brett Wesley Sperry states “Our primary goal is to show works of art that are bold, relevant, and well-crafted across several media and ultimately expand the visual dialog among collectors and artists. Brett Wesley Gallery will reflect my desire to share the unique power of art, the joy of ownership, and the enduring value of owning original works. And each month, whether you love what we’re showing or not, there will always be something here that’s memorable and worthy of discussion”.
