Fiorito & Marjoram will be in attendance to meet guests, speak about their works and discuss their distinct styles. Guests can enjoy wine, engage in conversation and experience exceptional modern art. This reception is free to attend.

Sign Language, Karen Fiorito’s solo exhibition explores political environment through intricate replicas of public billboards, displayed alongside photographs of the actual billboards. The collection highlights Fiorito’s 20-year career as an artist and political activist. “Art and Activism are the two most important things in my life. Activism, including social, political, and environmental causes, permeates everything I do, from my roles as artist and curator, to every action in my daily life,” states Fiorito. “Sign Language is a celebration of Artivism (Art + Activism), which creates ideas and engages the public in conversations and actions towards the greater good,” the artist explains.

Ernie Marjoram’s My Italia exhibition is inspired by his travels through Italy. The collection presents the classic processes of renaissance painters through utilizing available, modern materials. “The beauty of Italy has been an inspiration to artists for centuries.  During a year of study in Florence, I too was captivated by the culture, the language, the food and a young Italian girl, Silvia, my wife of 45 years now. During our many visits from Los Angeles to Italy, I started painting, wanting to capture the magic of Italy to share with family and friends. I have worked, often on site, exploring different techniques but every painting has the same core purpose: my desire to seize special moments in special places to share with others. I welcome you to My Italia.”

Curated by Karen Fiorito, political activist, artist, and curator, this exhibition explores fragile democracy, its flailing institutions and the threat of an authoritarian nightmare. By partnering with Swing Left Fiorito hopes to engage the public through live political poster printing, voter registration opportunities, panel discussions, and other community events. Fiorito is simultaneously exhibiting a solo collection TAG’s West Gallery space. This exhibition of her political activism, Sign Language, will feature miniature billboards alongside photos of actual billboards she has designed over the past 20 years.

Fiorito states, “These exhibitions are a celebration of Artivism, which is a combination of Art and Activism. Artivism opens dialogues, creates change and encourages growth through awareness and empathy for others, which leads the public towards the greater good.”

New visions of contemporary art from Nagui Achamallah, Katy Bishop, Karen Hochman Brown, Negin Haghighi-Mismas and Joan Horsfall Young will be unveiled at The Artists Gallery (TAG) beginning May 29 and running through June 21. 

On Saturday, June 1, from 4:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. The Artists Gallery invites the community and media to attend the opening reception for these new exhibitions. Each artist will be in attendance to meet guests and discuss their collections. The reception is free to attend. 
 
TAG is pleased to show five solo exhibitions that highlight diverse styles for collectors and art enthusiasts to appreciate. Exhibition titles range from Achamallah's Reflections 24; INK/MOTION by Bishop; Generation(s) by Hochman Brown; Echoes of Freedom, Dreams & Heroism by Haghighi-Mismas, and Florals by Horsfall Young. 
 
Nagui Achamallah’s Reflections 24 exhibition presents an immersive collection of paintings that delve into a realm of free associations and musings. Each painting in this color-rich collection is a window into the unconscious, where thoughts intertwine with line and shapes to create complex visual narratives.
 
INK/MOTION, a solo exhibition from Katy Bishop will showcase Bishop's gestural abstracts that fuse elements of perception, randomness, and control. Bishop describes her alcohol ink works as “wild abstracts with bold, vibrant colors that connect visual harmonies."
 
Karen Hochman Brown’s exhibition, Generations(s) is an homage to influential women, particularly the artist’s grandmother and great-grandmother. The exhibition presents works that blend the craftsmanship of crochet with use of digital technology; combining photography, laser-cut elements, and heirloom crocheted pieces. This original collection of digital collage is a creative tribute to the enduring legacy of generations past.
 
Echoes of Freedom, Dreams & Heroism, presented by artist Negin Haghighi-Mismas. Negin's art reflects the stories of people who pursue their rights and freedoms despite formidable challenges. Informed by historical research and contemporary issues, her art is relevant to society's ongoing struggle for liberty and human rights. Influenced by Negin's appreciation for the rich tapestry of Persian history, this collection invites viewers to explore profound impacts of heroism in the never-ending quest for a better world.
 
Joan Horsfall Young’s Florals exhibition reveals a collection of impressionistic oil paintings inspired by 19th century floral studies. Created to evoke tranquility and to enhance the harmony of our surroundings, viewing this collection of gorgeous floral paintings is a breath of fresh air. Joan Horsfall Young is well known for applying thick buttery paints and bold brush strokes to her canvases, while her compositions remind us of gentler times.

TAG Artists present the group exhibition Portraits, on view in the Sky Gallery beginning Wednesday June 5. Group exhibitions allow TAG members to present diverse artwork around broad themes. Mediums represented in this showcase include photography, painting, digital art, and mixed media works.
