August 1–August 30: Denise Mickilowski and Pedro Bonnin New Works: Mickilowski: Dazzling compositions portraying larger than life fruits and vegetables saturated with color. Oil on panel trompe l’oeil paintings exhibit a skilled mastery of technique; her works render a mood of abundance, warmth, and light. Bonnin: Quirky narratives painted in a flat, naïve style; yet the works are magnificently robust with multi-layered narratives exploring identity, memory, sexuality, dreams, faith, and voyeurism. Bonnin’s characters are often costumed in peculiar get-ups and stand stiff, shoulder to shoulder behind tables displaying a single object which relates separately to each individual. No opening reception. September 2–September 29: Bill Fisher Paintings: Utilizing sparse geometric shapes such as repetitive rectangles and bold thick stripes, Fisher playfully juxtaposes order with a multitude of imperfect scribbles and organic markings. His reworked and raw surfaces, made with oil paint mixed with cold wax medium, feel at once industrial and ethereal. Reception: September 5, 5–7 p.m.

Mary Bucci McCoy's mixed media work elegantly investigates intermediary spaces, such as those between organic and geometric forms. Rose Olson's luminous acrylic stripe paintings juxtapose shifting veils of color against organic wood grain. Consequences of Geometry was first shown at The Art Complex Museum, Duxbury, MA.
