Sane Enough

Ann Bradshaw

A collection of framed photographs by Ann Bradshaw

  • Artist Reception: Jan. 7, 5-7pm
  • Artist Talk: Jan. 20, 12-2pm and Feb. 16, 5-7pm


The work of Ann Bradshaw is anything but simplistic. Her collection of works for ‘Sane Enough’, pull from her careers as both a psychotherapist and studio artist to explore the paradox and ambiguity inherent in the complex journey of life.

Each piece is suffused with color and a sense of intensity that speaks to the underlying web of emotional circumstances that are at the core of their conception.

Ann believes that there should always be a synchrony between the artist and her art. She explores that interface through the creation of work that is photography with a painterly aspect, formed through her imagination and mastery of technique.

Small Works: 1995 - 2009

Benjamin Jones

Benjamin Jones is an internationally acclaimed artist whose small drawings are full of deep emotion and intricate, yet ambiguous, story lines. The images walk a line between humor and horror, seducing the viewer as he sees bits of themselves, the artist, and the fictional collide.

This unique presentation of small graphite drawings invite you to step inside the sketched lines and meet Jones' characters. Anthropomorphic figures dance throughout complex webs of lines, scribbles, and psychologically loaded etchings. Often eliciting references to children's art, outsider art, and art brut, Jone's work is distinctly recognizable as his own.

Jones' drawings are included in prominent museum collections including the Whitney Museum of Art, Philadelphia Museum of Art, Indianapolis Museum of Art, High Museum of Art, Morris Museum of Art, as well as significant corporate and private collections. He is represented by the Barbara Archer Gallery in Atlanta.

After Life: A Skull Exhibition

Noah Scalin

Beginning on June 4, 2007, Noah Scalin made a skull a day for a year. The project is at once humorous and serious, with kitschy undertones and real meditations on life. Noah took the ordinary and turned it extraordinary making skulls out of rice, vegetables, acorns, shoes, keyboard keys, bubble wrap, condoms, band-aids, and more. His website skulladay.com; won numerous awards, garnering international attention, and in 2008, he published a book of the fabulous creations, Skulls. Each one incredibly well executed, innovative and original, this exhibition features a selection of the original 365.25 skulls (both small & large), as well as several new pieces made specifically for the show (and offered for sale for the first time). The show promises to leave you seeing skulls everywhere you go.
