40th Anniversary Show
December 5, 2024 - January 25, 2025
Opening Party: First Thursday, December 5, 6-8 PM
Open House: Saturday, December 7, 2-4 PM
Harris Harvey Gallery is delighted to announce our 40th Anniversary Show, celebrating 40 years of gallery history. Founded in 1984 by Lisa Harris and known for many decades as the Lisa Harris Gallery, and now as Harris Harvey Gallery - the gallery has seen some changes since its founding, but has been committed to the work of West Coast artists for four decades. In the autumn of 2016, Lisa Harris passed the torch to then Assistant Director, Sarah Harvey, and the gallery re-opened with its new name in a new street-level space in Downtown Seattle.
The exhibition nods to the long-standing stewardesses to artists of the Pacific Northwest and West Coast, as well as reflecting the diversity of technique and creative vision that has been vital to the gallery’s history.
Previous Exhibition
Karen Kosoglad - Repose and Reflection
October 3 - November 2, 2024
Artist’s Reception: First Thursday, October 3, 6-8 PM
In Repose and Reflection, Seattle-based artist Karen Kosoglad’s figurative paintings capture women during their introspective and reflective moments. Her expressive style, sometimes monochromatic, sometimes colorful, reveals her interest in what she describes as “the gestural moments in everyday life and the balance between weight, rhythm, shape and color.” Black contour lines highlight the curves and form of live models who pose in chairs, with the artist's dog, or occasionally outside in the landscape. She uses mirroring to increase narrative ambiguity in her works and introduce the idea of contemplation and memory with figures pictured alongside their reflections. Kosoglad embraces the significance of gesture as the infrastructure to her work, informed by working from life. Deconstruction and reconstruction is her process, always inspired by the search for rightness of the form.
Eduardo Fausti - Reflections on Sound II
October 3 - November 2, 2024
Artist’s Reception: First Thursday, October 3, 6-8 PM
Reflections on Sound II is continuation of Argentine-born American artist Eduardo Fausti’s evocative monotypes series, comprising abstract and intuitive meditations on nature. Fausti is an established printmaker who moved from New York City to Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands in 2015, becoming bi-coastal. Fausti finds inspiration for his works on long walks on the island, observing nature, the night skies, and the Salish Sea.
The artist shares, “I first noticed that the silence of the island reminded me of my childhood where I grew up exposed to the majestic views of the Andes and stunning night skies. The Pacific Northwest stirs similar feelings but adds vast bodies of water, cascades, other islands and mountainsides carpeted with evergreens... Reflections on Sound is a series I’ve been working on for some time, responding to these feelings.”
