June 27 – July 25, “Authentic Surface” is an exhibition that presents the “truth of surfaces”. The work of the 11 exhibiting artists is authentic in that the artworks do not pretend to become anything more than what they are. Genuine authenticity is shown in the relationship between artistic media and the surface on which it resides. Significantly, in the process of discovering that surface, something beautiful, astonishing and lasting is created. In the Foundation Gallery will be an exhibition called “Shush” , porcelain sculpture created by artist Kimberly Chapman.
