The five (not so) younger artists in this exhibit take their cue using form, function, and space to produce refined quality pieces of art that are well crafted and a joy to live with in the twenty-first century. Their high standards and creative talent make each truly one of a kind.

Margaret Evangeline’s present flower series seems to depart from the previous aggressive, shot-through steel panels, but there is an underlying theme of “bursting” that communicates her emotional message. These paintings portray the essence of imperfection; Evangeline says she relies on “the little thing that ruins it” in order to keep an artwork alive.

Mark Gibian, sculptor, is one of the rare artists to fuse organic and industrial elements in his designs. Large-scale pieces have been installed in outdoor spaces in Manhattan and Brooklyn, while functional furniture adds a whimsical style to the space they inhabit.

William Manning’s five decades of work is a unique marriage of the organic      and the geometric, the aesthetic and the symbolic. His paintings, both through    medium and form, strike the viewer visually and spatially leaving them with a liberated sense of color, design, and shape.

Andy Moses creates vast atmospheres dedicated to land, water and sky; opposing elements that morph together becoming indistinguishable. Line and color are enhanced within convex and concave canvases that establish illusions of depth and space that either surround us or engulf us in vibrant colors.

Nancy Steinson-While her sculptures are made of steel, Steinson exceeds industrial terms while staying true to clarity of form and ignoring the nonessential. The artist strays away from a purely minimalist style, opting for a mergence of curvilinear and planar forms which can result in soft and hard objects that never bore the viewer.

Exhibition is through July 2nd
