Buchanan Partners Art Gallery exhibitions are on full display, so drop by and take in works by talented local artists.
View Carroll Sockwell’s exhibition (October 12 through November 14), a suite of six large-scale drawings that feature a cacophony of black charcoal marks dancing over smoke-like expanses of grey and brown. Viewed together, the abstract works’ map-like graphic notations suggest an epic visual poem or musical score. Sockwell (1943-1992) was a prominent figure in the Washington, D.C. art scene in the 1970s. Often using the simplest of tools—pencil, charcoal, and pastel, Sockwell was an internationally acknowledged master of non-representational abstraction and belongs to the last generation of American Abstract Expressionists.
Gallery hours are Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and two hours before each performance. for more information about upcoming exhibitions.
