Packer Schopf Gallery Exhibition
Packer Schopf Gallery is currently showcasing the work of Catherine Jacobi, Nancy Bardawil and Casey Gunschel, Danny Hein, and Harry Young. Jacobi's solo exhibit, entitled "Gleaners, Hawkers and Reapers," features a conceptual found object sculpture through which Jacobi explores the novelty of form. Bardawil and Gunschel have worked in tandem to present "Skivery," an exhibit merging Bardawil's paintings, and hand-tooled leather frames, with Gunschel's sculptures.
"South Country Scrapbook," a series of drawings by Hein, have been inspired by the artist's youth in rural Indiana. He has described the figures of his work as "corn-fed ghosts." "The Cowboy Constructions of Harry Young Circa 1930-1950" will round out the exhibition. Young's works include hand drawn cardboard figures of cowboys, lawmen, and horses.
Packer Schopf Gallery (942 W. Lake St.) will feature the works until August 21. Gallery hours are Tuesday-Saturday 11 am to 5:30 pm. For more information, visit www.packergallery.com.
