In Peripheral Visions, Adrianne Lobel presents dramatic and colorful paintings of seemingly banal subject matter, from eighteen-wheelers to model homes. She finds beauty in places and things that might usually go unnoticed. Lobel states, “The unbeautiful is as singular to life as anything commonly recognized as beautiful or meaningful. I try to transform these subjects into something that everyone can appreciate.”

She studied at the Brooklyn Museum’s art school and later earned an MFA from the Yale Drama School.

In Peripheral Visions, Marjorie Weiss presents her latest series Night Lives. This series of digitally produced panoramic prints are a continuation of her interest in memory, dimensional uncertainties, and the enigmatic juxtaposition of images and the relationships with their surroundings. Working digitally in Photoshop, Weiss approaches her work with a painter’s perspective using technology to combine the mystifying simplicity of the images with the dimensional ambiguity of the landscape.

Weiss’ has exhibited in both solo and group exhibitions nationally and internationally.
