Our current exhibition of work by tapestry artist James Koehler was reviewed by Kyle MacMillan of the Denver Post today. We love the reference to Josef Albers' work as well as how certain works reflect subtle mountain terrain such as Harmonic Oscillation LXII. When Kyle came into the gallery, he was surprised to see that the work is so tightly-woven thinking that it may have had some three dimensionality to it. In viewing the images online, it appears that these works are three dimensional due to Koehler's expertise in dying a monochromatic palette that once woven, appears as rippling waves of water in the sunlight.
The exhibition will be on display at Translations Gallery until tomorrow, May 1st, but some pieces will still be available for purchase. Payment plans are available.
