SUMMARY:Melinda Stickney-Gibson & Gary Gissler
DESCRIPTION:ONIRICA: MELINDA STICKNEY-GIBSON & GARY GISSLER · \nJuly 15 – August 28\, 2022 \nCastello 925 \nFondamenta San’Isepo 780 \nSestiere Castello\, Venice IT \nOPENING RECEPTION: Friday\, 15 July\, 19:00 – 21:00 | 7-9pm. \nVenice\, Italy: Castello 925 presents Onirica\, a two-person exhibition of paintings and drawings by Melinda Stickney-Gibson and small works by Gary Gissler opening 15 July and running through 28 Aug\, 2022. \nOnirica\, an adjective that translates as “dream-like” in English\, is the uniting concept of the work of these two New York-based artists.  Melinda Stickney-Gibson artworks are sensitive meditations on the texture of memory as her lines and forms alternate between awareness and an oneiric state through flickering shadows of consciousness. As a visual poet\, Ms. Stickney-Gibson incorporates written words as suggestive notations\, while her lines and forms echo the trembling edges of nature. Gary Gissler’s microscopic/obsessive drawings on prepared panelsweave words in a meditative repetitive cycle that creates an undulating\, fragile pattern from seemingly asemic writing. This preoccupation with words as symbols representing meaning as well as the actual words created by the literal marks and forms themselves lends a delicate balance between representation and abstraction.  Like dreams\, both artists convey the poetry of symbol and substance; the dream\, seemingly irrational and random\, nevertheless relays a tale of universal mythic power of which these artists serve as oracles. \n About Melinda Stickney-Gibson \nMelinda Stickney-Gibson has been living and working in New York for over 30 years. She has had over 25 one-person exhibitions\, and has participated in numerous group shows throughout the country. Her work has been reviewed in ARTnews\, ARTS Magazine\, REVIEW Magazine\, Neoteric Art\, ARTNET\, and others. Ms. Stickney-Gibson’s work can be found in many public collections including the Neuberger Museum of Art\, The Dorsky Museum\, San Francisco Opera Plaza\, Tribeca Bridge Tower\, Triptych Films\, Los Angeles and other corporate and private collections. Melinda Stickney-Gibson has been a recipient of two Pollack Krasner Grants. \n About Gary Gissler \nGary Gissler is an American artist working in New York City and in the Catskills. Having exhibited widely\, Gissler has been the subject of many solo exhibitions and artists’ essays. He has been reviewed in Art in America\, Flash Art\, Art News\, The New Yorker\, ArtNet\, and others.
