Previous Exhibitions

Artists’ Holiday—An enchanting holiday tree decorated with original ornaments by Anne C. Fisher Gallery affiliated artists was on display in the Georgetown Four Seasons Hotel lobby and auctioned 3 December at Georgetown Jingle.

September–November 2006
Cross Culture: The Independent Artists Forum—This forum, an international artists group with a mission of supporting crosscultural understanding and artistic diversity, has exhibited to national and international acclaim.

August 2006
Summer School—Finding inspiration in scientific texts and in literature, Martha Oatway’s monoprints from her Math Series and her Knowledge Series, and Carl Lennartson’s series of small paintings based on James Joyce’s Finnegan’s Wake delight the eye and the mind.

June–July 2006
FATHERThe companion exhibition to MOTHER, this exhibition was a multifaceted and multimedia exploration of fatherhood by 13 Anne C. Fisher Gallery-affiliated artists. It included a wide range of media and featured artists Jean S. Beebe, Aaron Quinn Brophy, Andrea Cybyk, Susan Finsen, Patsy Fleming, Louise Kennelly, Jin Lee, Aubrie Mema, Victoria Montero, Mahasti YMudd, June Shadoan, Helga Thomson and Phyllis Elizabeth Wright.

May–June 2006
MOTHER—A multifaceted, multimedia exploration of motherhood by ten Anne C. Fisher Gallery-affiliated artists. The exhibition represented new work by Joan Belmar, Beth Cartland, Tory Cowles, Ellen Hill, Camille Mosley-Pasley, Patricia Secco, Laura Seldman, Sandra Sugar, Claudia Vess and Marcie Wolf-Hubbard. A wide range of media was used and combined in MOTHER, including painting, collage and other mixed media works, printmaking and photography.

April–May 2006
Juxtaposition: This poignant exhibition featured Aubrie Mema and Sandra Sugar, mixed media works on canvas and on paper. Together, their work juxtaposes two profound relationship themes—loss and reconciliation. In her minimalist work, Sugar responds to the death of both her parents by attempting to create works devoid of imagery. In the course of the body of work she presents in Juxtaposition, she breaks free of her self-imposed restriction and finds resolution in powerfully energetic expression. Mema’s works are personal reflections on the theme of reconciliation. Returning in memory to places and events in her life stirs mood and emotion that Mema represents by color, line, transparency and movement with the endpoint of providing a projective device for the viewer’s own life experience.

February–March 2006
Attunement—Metal sculpture by Costa Rican artist Victoria Montero and abstract painting in acrylic, oil and encaustic by American artist Beverly Ryan. Although from different worlds, their work is wonderfully attuned in its directness, spontaneity and depth of expression, as well as in its psychological sophistication.

January–February 2006
Bodies of Work—Photographer Adrienne Mills exhibits her collaborations with painters in which she creates nude photographic studies of the human body, exploring line and color, while blurring the lines between reality and fantasy, and boundaries of culture. Abstract painter Jean Beebe exhibits assemblages combining painting, collage and found objects, and retouched inkblot prints in which she comments, often humorously, on the traditional and modern feminine mind and body and women’s social roles.
