Join us in the Angels Gate Cultural Center (AGCC) Gallery on Saturday, July 8th from 3-5pm for the Opening Reception of Solace / Sublime.

Solace / Sublime is a group exhibition featuring artists who look to phenomena of the natural world as a primary source of inspiration. This exhibition is curated by Molly Enholm Velazco, with works by Samantha Fields, Megan Frances, Yvette Gellis, Virginia Katz, R. Nelson Parrish, and Molly Enholm Velazco. Through a combination of fragmented and representational imagery, these artists embrace the enduring dichotomies of the natural world: the overwhelming and the minute, the eternal and the ephemeral, the solace and the sublime.

Solace / Sublime is on view from July 8th – September 9th, 2023. The gallery is open to the public Thursday – Saturday from 10am to 4pm.

Mark Bradford: 150 Portrait Tone

Mark Bradford’s 150 Portrait Tone, a mural-size composition that contains elements of both abstraction and realism, is based on an idea for a work that the artist conceived after the fatal shooting of Philando Castile by a police officer in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in July 2016. Castile, a nutrition services supervisor at an elementary school, was shot after being pulled over in his car—an incident that was livestreamed on Facebook by Castile’s girlfriend, Diamond Reynolds, who was sitting in the…
