Late sculptor honored at Quicksilver

The Quicksilver Mine Co. gallery in Forestville will open a show of the sculpture of Charles Fahlen on Friday Sept. 28, with a special reception honoring the artist on Saturday, Sept. 29 from 4 to 6 p.m. Fahlen, who died in 2010, began his professional career as an artist in the late 1960’s in Philadelphia, exhibiting extensively on the East Coast before moving to Guerneville twelve years ago. This show at Quicksilver will focus on sculpture completed in his Russian River studio during the last five years of his life. An avid reader and traveler, Fahlen created a largely abstract and very personal body of work, often referencing themes of exploration, particularly the American West.Quicksilver is at 6671 Front St. and is open Thursday through Monday 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

August 21, artist reception @ The Quicksilver Mine Co

The Quicksilver Mine Co. will present a one man exhibition of recent drawings and prints by Santa Rosa artist William Smith beginning August 20th.

One Across the Bow, continues in the gallery through September 26th.

An artist reception for Smith will be held on Saturday August 21st from 4—6pm.

Smith's drawings (and many of the prints) often take form as a cover on his work surface: doodles, marks, spills, stains and notes. A menagerie of comically grotesque and cartoon-like characters follows, archetypes for various moods, emotions and actions, almost suggestive of large pages torn from his artist journal.
