FEBRUARY 17-JUNE 24, 2018

Having worked with wood as his primary medium for more than 50 years, local artist Steve Sinner has mastered the art of woodturning. Woodturning is the process of fastening wood to a lathe that rotates around a centralized axis, allowing artists to use a series of chisels, gouges and other implements to carve away portions of the raw wood to create symmetrical forms. Traditionally, this process was used to create furniture legs, tool handles and other household implements. Sinner is one of a number of artists who use this technique to create finely crafted vessels. These vessels often have walls thinner than 1/8 inch, transforming rough blocks of wood into elegant forms. The surface of Sinner’s vessels range from meticulously rendered geometric forms based on algorithms to figurative allegories. These designs are created from a combination of mediums, including acrylic paint, gold leaf, ink and urethane. Other surfaces are embellished by selectively removing sections of the vessel, producing a screen of perforations that allow light to permeate the form. In addition to his independent work, Sinner seeks out local artists like Katie Kiley and Joe Meirhaeghe with whom to collaborate. The resulting works are remarkable combinations of form, material and surface decoration. Steve Sinner: Master Woodturner highlights nearly 30 examples of Sinner’s solo work and collaborations as well as his innovations within the art form.

Joseph Lappie: Personal Mythologies FEBRUARY 24-MAY 20, 2018 Joseph Lappie: Personal Mythologies encompasses more than a decade of the artist’s work. Myths, gods and people mingle in skillfully carved woodblocks, artist’s books and prints. The figures crouch and contort, transform into beasts and look out at the viewer with raw emotion. Lappie’s expressive and haunting imagery reflects the human psyche as well as the cultural environment that shapes us. He references shared narratives passed down through centuries, including the Nuremberg Chronicle and stories of trickster gods Anansi and Loki. By engaging universal allegories and his own experiences, he provokes viewers to consider the relationship between our private realities and the outside world. Lappie, an associate professor of art at St. Ambrose University, is a graduate of Columbia COMPANION EVENT College in Chicago and Ball State University in Muncie, Ind.
