SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Molly Altman and Sabrina Piersol "FLORAL PANIC"
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Friday\, June 12 from 5 PM- 7 PM\nArtist Talk: Friday\, June 12 at 5:30 PM\nOn view: June 12 to July 24\, 2026 \nMolly Altman’s ceramic sculptures explore the fragile balance between resilience and impermanence in the natural world. Working with flora gathered from the Carbondale landscapes and flowers\, leaves\, vines\, and grasses\, she dips these materials in porcelain and fires them\, transforming organic forms into delicate\, ghostlike structures. By reassembling these elements onto hand-built ceramic frameworks\, Altman creates intricate micro-environments that echo the ecologies from which they came. Her work honors the abundance and vulnerability of the Roaring Fork Valley\, inviting viewers to reconsider their relationship to a rapidly changing environment. \nSabrina Piersol’s paintings emerge from a spark of inspiration a loose sketch\, a color palette\, or a single natural form before unfolding into an intuitive\, responsive process. Guided by presence and improvisation\, she follows each mark as it appears\, allowing the composition to evolve with the same unpredictability and openness found in meditation. Her work prioritizes the relationships of color\, form\, and movement\, resulting in dynamic\, emotionally resonant paintings shaped by both intention and discovery. \nGenerously sponsored by Krista Klees and Palladium Group\, and Z Group Architecture & Interior Design \n  \n \n  \n \n  \nThank you to our generous 2026 Annual Exhibition Sponsor\, Alpine Bank

SUMMARY:Art Lunch with Savanna LaBauve
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 28\n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM \nJoin us for Art Lunch with our exhibiting artist\, Savanna LaBauve\, as we dine and discuss art and anything else! This is a great chance to walk through their current exhibition\, Echoes\, and ask questions or connect. \nArt Lunch is our routine excuse to gather around the table. Bring a bagged lunch and let conversation roam. Some weeks we’ll toss in a discussion prompt to get things rolling\, but mostly it’s about food\, company\, and a potluck of ideas. \nExhibition Details\nOn view: May 8 – June 6\, 2026\nLocation: The Art Base\, 174 Midland Ave\, Basalt\, CO\nAdmission: Free and open to the public \nPublic Events with the Artist:\nTextures of Topography\nOpening Reception Friday\, May 8\nFrom 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM\n \nPlease join us the night of Savanna LaBauve’s opening reception\, visitors are invited to make barefoot impressions in clay\, adding their marks to those already there. Over the course of the event\, these layers will overlap and change one another. The finished piece will be fired and returned to the gallery later in the exhibition\, creating a shared record shaped by many people.   \nArt Lunch with Savanna LaBauve – Public Event\nThursday\, May 28\n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM \nFree and open to the public\nArt Lunch is our routine excuse to gather around the table. Bring a bagged lunch and let conversation roam. \nClosing Reception with Savanna LaBauve \nSaturday\, June 6\n4:00 PM – 5:00 PM\nFree and open to the public\n\nJoin artist Savanna LaBauve at the close of Echoes for an artist talk and the unveiling of Textures of Topography. During the opening reception\, the community was invited to leave their barefoot mark on a large slab of clay — that piece has since been fired and returns to the gallery transformed. Come see what we made together\, hear more about the ideas behind the show\, and celebrate the close of the exhibition.\nAbout the Artist\nSavanna LaBauve is a ceramic artist based in Carbondale\, Colorado. With a background in painting and drawing\, her practice has evolved over the past six years into a deeply tactile exploration of form\, material\, and process. Her work investigates repetition\, memory\, and transformation through hand-built ceramic forms that balance structure and fragility.  \nAbout Echoes\n\nThe Art Base is pleased to present Echoes\, a solo exhibition by Carbondale-based ceramic artist Savanna LaBauve\, on view May 8 through June 6\, 2026. An opening reception will be held on Friday\, May 8\, from 5:00 to 7:00 PM\, with an artist talk at 5:30 PM.  \nEchoes is a sister show to Orbit\, opening a few weeks later at Seesaw Gallery in South Denver; together\, the two shows thematically explore the idea of constellations and their points of intersection. In LaBauve’s practice\, echoes are the reverberations of previous choices and ideas\, returning from somewhere else slightly anew — distorted by time and experience. The connective tissue is what gets left behind\, and how that memory shapes what comes after.   \n\nThis exhibition is sponsored by Karen White Interior Design\, and we are grateful to our 2026 Annual Exhibition Sponsor\, Alpine Bank. \n                       \n\nPresent in this exhibition are what LaBauve calls “portals” — rectangular forms built around a deliberate absence\, a cut-out at the center that draws the eye inward. Some of these portals feel like longstanding caverns\, others are suspended in their forward momentum\, a snapshot in time. The portals carry a sense of struggle: to puncture primarily\, but also to preserve the space between. As the mass around them presses in\, there is a sense of vulnerability in how they resist the weight of the clay. The work suggests that an absence is contingent: a space can is best perceived when it is in danger of collapsing. These sculptures ask the viewer to consider the space as the subject — a thin threshold between what is\, what was\, and what could be.     \nA recurring theme in the work is bifurcation\, where one becomes two\, like trees branching or rivers forking. In the series of pierced sculptures that resemble baskets\, this plays out through a dialogue between object and shadow. A cyanotype\, a sun-printed photographic record of shadow\, captures the outline of one structure\, and that shadow becomes the blueprint for the next. The process repeats\, as each shadow inflects and distorts the form of the next sculpture— a process LaBauve likens to memory. Solid and inanimate become interchangeable\, as the work moves forward\, alternating between directions — the shadow sometimes leading the form for a change.   \nFor LaBauve\, the work is formed by pinch and touch\, a slow process of mark-making with an emphasis on remaining a physical record.   \nThe exhibition opening also includes a participatory artwork and public event\, Textures of Topography\, on Friday\, May 8\, from 5 – 7 PM at the Art Base gallery. Visitors are invited to make barefoot impressions in clay\, adding their marks to those already there. Over the course of the event\, these layers will overlap and change one another. The finished piece will be fired and returned to the gallery later in the exhibition\, creating a shared record shaped by many people.   \n

SUMMARY:Art Lunch with Marcia Weese
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, March 26\n12:00 PM – 1:00 PM \nJoin us for Art Lunch with our exhibiting artist\, Marcia Weese\, as we dine and discuss art and anything else! This is a great chance to walk through their current exhibition\, 5 Decades\, and ask questions or connect. \nArt Lunch is our routine excuse to gather around the table. Bring a bagged lunch and let conversation roam. Some weeks we’ll toss in a discussion prompt to get things rolling\, but mostly it’s about food\, company\, and a potluck of ideas. \n5 DECADES\, a retrospective exhibition of work by Marcia Weese\, on view March 13 through April 15\, 2026. Spanning more than fifty years of studio practice\, the exhibition traces a throughline that has long guided Weese’s work: the belief that beauty does not rise above the muck but depends on it. Echoing the Buddhist refrain “no mud\, no lotus\,” Weese’s work explores what she calls raw beauty—an interconnected framework where structure and entropy\, control and surrender\, exist in dynamic balance.  \nBeginning her career as a sculptor with an interest in site-specific installation\, Weese now works primarily in printmaking\, with a recent return to ceramics loosely inspired by ancient Egyptian canopic jars. The exhibition moves from early paintings on wood panels to works on paper—including monoprints\, solar etchings\, and woodcuts—revealing not stylistic departures but a sustained investigation into material integrity and process. Her surfaces\, built through transparent layering and subtractive wiping\, carry a rugged luminosity that records touch\, time\, and collaboration with the medium itself.  \nThroughout the exhibition\, recurring motifs from the natural world—trees\, whales\, birds\, dragonflies\, mycelial networks\, and Fibonacci spirals—reflect Weese’s ongoing fascination with ecological systems and Mother Nature’s capacity to balance ferocity and harmony. Whether cerebral or intuitive\, each work embodies a quiet inquiry into interdependence\, resilience\, and the generative potential of what lies beneath the surface.  \nThe gallery unfolds the story of Marcia Weese’s career\, guiding visitors through the many transitions and transformations in her work over five decades. Enter the space and experience the breadth of her artistic journey.  \nOn view: February 6 to March 6\, 2026 \n  \nThis exhibition is generously sponsored by Aspen Painting Inc.\, and Dede Reed & Harry Teague.   \nThank you to our generous 2026 Annual Exhibition Sponsor\, Alpine Bank
