Ten Again

Tasked with the reality of needing a job, and at the same time cleaning up a neglected property after a divorce, I thought about renting a small space in Moscow to establish a small gallery. Friends suggested I use the original building that hosted Maiden America's floral design studio. It had been closed for years, filled with remnants of past jobs and past life and honestly it felt so sad I hardly could open the door. 

 

They rallied around me, these incredible people with more vision than myself at the time, helped me clean it out, and began to see the potential in this sweet space that I loved so much at one time. My good friend Darrell Teischmer and his wife Marie put the definitive mark on a gallery space by generously painting the interior- at no cost to me- and I’ll never fully repay all the kindness of that time. Len Zeoli who was working for me to rebuild the house in so many aspects, made pedestals, and beautiful art as well - the amazing sculpture that greets you at the entrance is by him. So many others showed up to help and over the years they kept helping me- ten years have passed and this little gallery has made a name for itself and hosted many shows and supported others along the way. Ten and Ten Again two shows this year celebrating this anniversary of the potential and love for fine contemporary art in an unexpected place has survived. 

 

The fall show is once again a celebration and invitation to those artists that have contributed over the years. Sculptors, ceramicists, painters and printmakers- fabric and paper- rocks and sticks, tops and tiny spoons will surprise you- both with ingenuity and unabashed talent in so many mediums.  Creativity and beauty are now defining this space. 

 

This spring we celebrated  and now this fall we will gather again to do so. With much gratitude and sincere thanks to all of you that have supported this gallery- the fall show will open October 26-27th ! The fall colors should be filling in all the gaps  in this gardening year, with beautiful leaves, and berries- the coffee will be on and I’ll be making peanut  butter cookies for the opening as I have for ten years…( a nod to my great grandmother who also was an entrepreneur- a baker and a gardener.) 

 

Thank you everyone, I hope to see you at the end of October.
