SUMMARY:Orbits and Fields
DESCRIPTION:Orbits and Fields | Artists Connected to Appalachian State University and the Penland School of Craft\nAugust 6 – September 11 \nThere will be a virtual Artist talk with the participants of Orbits and Fields\, Artists Connected to Appalachian State University and Penland School of Craft speaking about their work. \nWhen: September 10\, 7 PM\nWhere: Via Zoom. \nClick here to register. \nThe artists in this show move in a wide variety of orbits around and through both Appalachian State University and the Penland School of Craft. Their paths cross one another as fellow students and teachers\, as co-workers\, co-residents\, and fellow community members. They have not all met\, but they know one another\, in the way that they share common chapters and parallel experiences. \nThey can all say\, for example\, that they have watched Appalachian swell over time to become a large public university\, where hundreds of teachers teach hundreds of topics. They can relate to finding comrades in their studio classes\, tucked as they are within a small city of studies. And they understand that to make things is to push against the main stream\, to create a direction of sail and a space within the wider culture. \nThey can also remember the first time they found themselves at Penland\, tucked into a bend in the road in what felt like the middle of nowhere. They have watched it change and become more physically resilient over time\, even as the workshops themselves remained places apart\, with a pace and time all their own. They know the way work and making become entwined with talking\, friending\, eating and wandering. And they can remember the slightly desperate feeling of wanting to retain this type of time and community in their places outside. \nThis show presents 20-odd artists with connection to two vastly different institutions: a small intentional craft school and a big public university. Their fields trace the scope of work being fostered in both communities. Their work reveals both the richness that can come from time spent in these contexts\, and the unique visions that they bring to both places. \nOrbits: Student\, Teacher Intern\, Work Study\, Core Student\, Resident Artist\, Staff Member\, Community Member\,… \nFields: metals\, ceramics\, photography\, installation\, furniture design\, bookarts\, graphic design\, collaboration\, fibers\, time-based works\, printmaking\, painting\, digital design and fabrication\, tattooing\, mixed media\,… \nFeatured Image: Lynn Duryea.

SUMMARY:Wonders and Realities | Allison Edge
DESCRIPTION:Allison Edge will exhibit in the Community 2D Gallery in Burnsville September 25 – October 23\, 2021. \nAllison Edge creates dreamy\, photograph-based paintings\, lingering in nostalgia\, often depicting memories of family travels\, encounters with the natural world\, and other documented occasions of 1970s and 80s Americana. She features animals\, landscapes\, and plants\, as well as man-made structures that can simultaneously capture our wonder and apprehension. Her style is realism\, as if through a soft-focus lens\, sometimes in hard candy tints\, and other times in dark shadows. The images offer an indulgence into memories and dreamscapes. \nThe Burnsville gallery is open Thursday – Saturday\, 10:30AM – 5PM. \nPhotos courtesy of the artist.

SUMMARY:Here and There\, Contemporary Sculptural Ironwork
DESCRIPTION:Here and There\, Contemporary Sculptural Ironwork\nSeptember 25 – October 30 \nEvery year\, Toe River Arts hosts a Blacksmith Exhibition in conjunction with the annual Fire on the Mountain Festival which takes place in April. Due to the pandemic the festival was canceled in 2020. Because of the cancellation\, Toe River Arts recognized the need to adapt and hosted a virtual exhibition of blacksmith work. Elizabeth Brim was featured as the master blacksmith in both 2020 and 2021. Regrettably\, the live festival event was cancelled again this year\, so Toe River Arts made the decision to try something new. This year\, the Blacksmith Exhibition will be hosted in the fall\, September 25 – October 30 and curated by Elizabeth Brim. This is an exciting departure from Toe River Arts’ usual Blacksmith Exhibit which is normally open to all blacksmiths. Toe River Arts will return to the original format in 2022. \nThe exhibit is titled Here and There\, Contemporary Sculptural Ironwork. The exhibit will include: Warren Holzman\, Philadelphia\, PA\, Bill Price\, Memphis\, TN\, Hoss Haley\, Spruce Pine\, NC\, Zack Nobel\, Asheville\, NC\, Andrew Meers\, Bakersville\, NC\, Peter Braspeninx\, Casnovia\, MI\, John Winer\, Mountain City\, TN\, Bill Brown\, Linville Falls\, NC\, Rachel David\, Waynesville\, NC\, Maegan Crowley\, Dolores\, CO\, Jim Cooper\, Bakersville\, NC\, Maria Cristalli\, CleElum\, WA\, Megan Martin\, Bakersville\, NC\, Andy Dohner\, Bakersville\, NC.
