This Friday, 6-8pm, we are holding a closing reception for Artist Jane Michalski and her beautiful one person show in the sanctuary of First Free Church Andersonville 5255 N Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL. I can't say enough about this show of large scale encaustic work, and the venue itself. I've been curating exhibitions here for years, and this one is a real standout. This is a last chance to see the show. I hope you can come out and support Jane as she talks about this new, powerful work

Much of my day is often spent talking about the fantastic artists we represent at Addington Gallery. But on some occasions, I am asked to talk about my own work. This is one of those occasions. I will be discussing my own paintings this coming Monday at an event called “Meet a Chicago Artist” at "4th Pres" on Michigan Ave on the Mag Mile.

Fourth Presbyterian is a beautiful cathedral with a lovely cloistered courtyard. They also produce art exhibitions and programs on the arts. My talk takes place Monday, April 28th at 3:00 p.m. Room 4E. Please use the entrance at 126 E. Chestnut and sign in with reception when you arrive. It is open to the public and free, but they ask that you register ahead of time. Use the email or number at the bottom of this post.

Cat Crotchet, Thrive, 36x36, encaustic on panel
This is a large encaustic painting by Cat Crotchet, on view now at the gallery. In recent large scale work, Cat dissects bits of decorative patterns from various cultural sources, zooms in, and leans into the highly physical, tactile process of encaustic painting to arrive at powerful imagery that plots its own route between abstraction and representational imagery. Calling our attention both to the natural world, and to humankind's creative impulse to stylize that world in order to say things about our inner life, Cat's paintings chart a unique course in contemporary painting, with feet firmly planted in art history.
