Looking ahead

Posted on by Arnold Wengrow

Following the upcoming openings, all three galleries remain busy through the fall.

At UNC Asheville, art students Sophia Sherar and Jodie Karr will exhibit in the S. Tucker Cooke Gallery Oct. 20-27, followed by Dylan Mintz and Arlene Rangel, showing Nov. 3-10.

Meanwhile, the Weizenblatt Gallery will feature works by Rob Amberg, the well-known Madison County photographer who has been documenting the culture and environment of his adopted county since 1973. Amberg will be pairing his photographs with ceramics by Marshall artist Josh Copus. The show runs Sept. 21-Oct. 13.

Later that same month, the gallery will present works by two Burnsville-based craftspeople  — ceramicist Terry Gess and fiber artist Colleen Connolly. The exhibit runs Oct. 26-Nov. 10.

The Weizenblatt wraps up the semester with its Asheville Printmakers show, featuring around 30 local artists. The exhibit runs Nov. 16-Dec. 8.

The Elizabeth Holden Gallery will host the Fourth Triennial Exhibition of the Kentucky-based Wood Engravers’ Network, featuring 65 works by artists from Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, England, Finland, Ireland, Latvia, Taiwan, Ukraine and the United States. The show is on view Oct. 20-Nov. 25, with an opening reception on Thursday, Oct. 20, 4:30-6 p.m.
