SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Beyond the Wall
DESCRIPTION:“BEYOND THE WALL”\nExhibit at Janice Charach Gallery \nArtist Talk: Sunday\, November 23\, 1 p.m. \nHear from the artists of Beyond the Wall\, a captivating art exhibit\nshowcasing the work of contemporary sculptors who challenge the conventions of\ndimensionality. Featuring a curated blend of wall-mounted pieces and free-\nstanding sculptures\, this collection explores the interplay between surface\nand structure\, intimacy and monumentality. \nEach artist brings a unique approach to material\, form\, and spatial\npresence—whether affixed to the wall or commanding the floor. From subtle\nreliefs that blur the line between painting and sculpture\, to bold\, immersive\nforms that invite movement and reflection\, these works engage viewers in a\ntactile and visual conversation. \nThis exhibit invites you to experience sculpture not as static object\, but as\nactive participant—transforming the walls\, occupying the air\, and reshaping\nhow we perceive space itself. \nFeatured Artists:\nTerrence Campagna\nDoug Cannell\nAmelia Currier\nRobert Mirek\nJohn Rizzo\nMike Ross\nAmadeus Roy\nLarry Zdeb \nEXHIBIT SPONSORS: Manat Foundation\, Doris Shulman\, Esther Hankin\, Dr. Judy\nBalan Pearl\, Sue & Alan Jay Kaufman Foundation \nPROGRAM SPONSORS: Lesley & Dr. Barry Feldman\, Judy & Dr. John Marx\, Arlene &\nJack Schultz \nFor more on exhibits and events\, visit\n(https://charachgallery.org/). \nOPEN HOURS DURING EXHIBITS:\nSunday\, Tuesday\, Wednesday – 10 am – 4 pm\nThursday – 11 am – 7 pm\n*Visit the website or social media for up-to-date information & holiday\nclosures. \nView event on Jlive: https://jlive.app/events/12760
