First Art Exhibition of 2012: Jan Oliver Alms at MESH Gallery, Morganton, NC

MESH Gallery in Morganton NC is holding its first exhibition of 2012, a collection of paintings by Jan Oliver Alms completed in 2011.This mixed mediacollection is being shown for the first time, and represents new creative directions for the artist.

There are a number of large diptychs, triptychs, and 2”, 6” and 8” square canvases, arranged by Alms. According to the artist, these represent only one possible presentation of the works. As Alms says in MESH’s newsletter, “I invite the art lover to purchase any or all of the canvases from a composition and rearrange them on the wall of their home or office, creating their own interpretation of how my work should be displayed. I consider this interactive exchange between Artist and Buyer an important aspect of the show.

The exhibition is open at MESH Gallery, 114 West Union Street, Morganton NC, from January 2 - February 24, 2012. A reception for Jan Oliver Alms will be held on Friday, January 6, 2012, from 6 - 8 pm. It is free and open to the public, and is a wonderful opportunity to meet the artist ,see the Gallery, and tour downtown Morganton.

Hope to see you there!
