Pamela Talese

Working outside her usual method of painting on site from direct observation, painter Pamela Talese has created a quartet of imagined scenes about the degradation of our natural world from the rise of the industrial one, the effects of which inevitably affect where we live, how we live, and how long we'll be able to manage.

Gian Berto Vanni

Gian Berto Vanni traveled through Syria in the winter of 2009-10, roughly a year before the start of the civil war there. Many of the historic places and daily lives of people that he photographed have already vanished.
Vanni, who most recently exhibited his paintings at Village West in the fall of 2015, has been traveling the world with his camera for more than 60 years, creating with his photographs what has been called "a travelogue for an abstract painter." These photographs of Syria are slightly different, as the place enchanted him and he used his camera to make a record of the beauty and majesty of the place, in settings grand and humble.
Vanishing Worlds also includes one of his most recent paintings, finished in February 2016, that was inspired by the war Syria.
