SUMMARY:Beyond the Wall Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:“BEYOND THE WALL”\nExhibit at Janice Charach Gallery\nOctober 26 – December 3\, 2025\nOpening Reception: Sunday\, October 26\, 1-4 p.m.\nArtist Talk: Sunday\, November 23\, 1 p.m. \nStep into a world where boundaries dissolve and space becomes canvas. Beyond\nthe Wall is a captivating art exhibit showcasing the work of contemporary\nsculptors who challenge the conventions of dimensionality. Featuring a curated\nblend of wall-mounted pieces and free-standing sculptures\, this collection\nexplores the interplay between surface and structure\, intimacy and\nmonumentality. \nEach artist brings a unique approach to material\, form\, and spatial\npresence—whether affixed to the wall or commanding the floor.
