3 to the Third---Brian Elliott, Kevin Evans & Liz Orleans:Opening

3 to the Third---Brian Elliott, Kevin Evans & Liz Orleans
April 18th to June 3rd, 2006

This third anniversary show at Varnish features cast metal sculptor
Brian Elliott, intaglio printmaker Kevin Evans & ceramic sculptor Liz
Orleans.

Each of Brian Elliot's cast metal pieces---about 27" high, 11" deep &
18" wide---has an improbable charisma & beauty which is only enhanced
by their lightness of appearance. These brave ladies, like a fleet
of demure, feminine Zeppelins, look as if they might float away
unless tethered.

Sculptor Elizabeth Orleans tells "ceramic tales." She pairs visual &
tactile structures like smooth, orbed surfaces with crusty exteriors
in order to excite "visual sensations." These ceramic tales reflect
the currents & ravages of time & evolution.

In his painting & other work Kevin Evans looks to the concealed
natural world for inspiration, moving through projects with a
combination of instinct & imagination. "It is," says Evans, "an
unpredictable voyage toward an unpredictable outcome." The images,
especially in his intaglio work, are dense & riddled with a
structural mystery that resists explanation.
