FRED STONEHOUSE
Saturday, September 23 | 11:00
Fred Stonehouse’s paintings marry wide-ranging art-historical influences with inscrutable symbols according to a strangely compelling dream logic. The bravado Neo-Surrealism of his work has secured Stonehouse a place in collections around the world, including those of Madonna and Sheryl Crow.

VAUGHAN LARSEN
Saturday, October 7 | 11:00
Vaughan Larsen’s photography defies dichotomies. The non-binary artist situates themself at the center of their work to explore the fluidity of identity and the public reception of non-conforming individuals. Larsen is definitely one to watch.

LON MICHELS
Saturday, November 18 | 11:00
After working with renowned sculptor Louise Nevelson in New York City during the 1980s, Lon Michels returned to his home state of Wisconsin, where he developed a vibrant Neo-Pop brand of painting that celebrates male and female beauty. Michels’s canvases brim with joie de vivre.
