Mid-Century Modern Show featuring ABQ Sculptor, Herb Goldman, on Fri.,11-20-26 from 5-8PM w/ Family Artist Talk
The headliner for our event will be former Albuquerque sculptor, Herb Goldman, whose daughter, Lisa, will discuss his legacy beginning at 6:15PM on Friday,November 20th. He created works in Albuquerque for twenty years.Herb did not limit himself to working with one material or medium amongst his work which included 100 commissioned pieces.His biggest, and perhaps, signature project was "The Henge", a functional residence / sculpture erected in Roswell,NM, towers 45 feet above ground and more than 100 feet across.A few different styles and sizes of Goldman's pieces will be present at our show.Of further note, "Metro",1973 pictured below was developed as a model for what was to become a 25(H) foot composition created for the Metro Shopping Center in Phoenix,AZ.
Ceramic, Glass, and Wooden sculptures are in-abundance at our display.Czech glass artists featured include Jan Cerny,Pavel Hlava,Joseph Svarc, Frantisek VIzner, and Karel Wunsch.The ceramicists include Lisa Larson and Gunnar Nylund of Sweden and Ivo de Santis who produced the bulk of his work at the Gli Etruschi Foundry in Italy. As well, a "NEW" limited edition wooden Chess Set replicating Alexander Calder's constructed " well-used " game board and pieces dating to 1944 will be shown.Far from conventional, Calder's stylized set will be highly recognizable to those who have followed his artistry over nearly one hundred years.A hardback coffee table book describing Calder's unique "Chess Philosophy" is also available for your purchase.

Painter/Print Maker Eyvind earle’s (1916-2000)
“sunny with a chance of Shade”
His Show continues thru 11-16-26
Palette will be exhibiting as many as 31 of Eyvind's pieces during our show with at least nine of these pieces being his original paintings. It is our most ambitious display of his artistry to date.
Frequently sloping compositions, Eyvind's mustard grass or varying green fields, surrounded by oak trees, featured his INKY BLACK COWS. Eyvind did "cool" some of his "sun-drenched" landscapes by incorporating angular swaths of shade.
These shadows, when combined with his gracefully fading background scenery, completed his stylistic imagery with pleasing perspectives. Eyvind also created a number of "moody" hillside scenes featuring wispy clouds or early morning soupy skies found along his favored painting territory … Highway One in Central California.
Our Gallery Hours remain 10 am to 6 pm, Monday thru saturday.
