    Toomey Tourell Fine Art: Brian Rutenberg - Eight Landscapes.

    Comment by AB: Brian Rutenberg straddles the boundary between abstract and representation, incorporating the best of each. "Landscapes" with plenty of room for interpretation.

    Dolby Chadwick Gallery: Tom Lieber - Wired.

    Review by Kathryn Arnold: Meshes of painterly lines evoke atmosphere. Erasures create hidden agendas at the same moment visible becomes self-evident. Flurries of activity in calmness.

    Cain Schulte Contemporary Art: Gyöngy Laky - Crossover.

    Review by Kathryn Arnold: Wood, plastic, wire components and more are used in creating this imaginative series of works-- maneuvering object-like elements into new wholes, or new materials into new objects. Works worth viewing.
