SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Michael Kinsley "Sensuous Landscapes"
DESCRIPTION:On view: October 2 to October 30\, 2026\nOpening Reception: Friday\, October 2\, from 5 PM- 7 PM\nArtist Talk: Friday\, October 2 at 5:30 PM \n  \nRooted in traditional representational painting\, Kinsley’s style has evolved to amplify Nature’s sensual forms\, some obvious\, others obscure. One curator calls his work “voluptuous.” \nIn oil\, he paints his smaller pieces plein air. Larger pieces begin as field sketches that establish composition\, which he amplifies in the studio as sinuous natural shapes. These two-steps allow him to see on-site the convergence of subtle shapes that photos often miss\, then interpret and refine the shapes more deliberatively in the studio. \nHis primary subjects are Western Colorado and the Utah desert\, mostly from the Roaring Fork Valley. Influences include Canadian modernists Emily Carr and Franklin Carmichael. Also\, Edgar Payne\, Maynard Dixon\, and Cezanne\, plus friends Dan Young (Silt)\, Tania Dibbs (Basalt)\, and the Hermitage Group (St Petersburg\, Russia) \nCurrently\, his paintings are on display at Aspen’s Wind River Gallery. Since the 90s\, they have appeared in 14 galleries and in over 20 local community exhibits\, including juried shows. Institutional collections include Parc Aspen Restaurant\, Colorado River Conservation District\, Valley View Hospital\, and Rocky Mountain Institute. \n  \nThank you to our generous 2026 Annual Exhibition Sponsor\, Alpine Bank \n \n

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Chris Hassig
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Friday\, November 6 from 5 PM- 7 PM\nArtist Talk: Friday\, November 6 at 5:30 PM\nOn view: November 6 to December 4\, 2026 \n  \nChris Hassig (b. 1987) is an artist and community leader based in Carbondale\, Colorado whose intricate drawings and prints blur the boundaries between landscape\, abstraction\, and imagined worlds. Rooted in a lifelong fascination with mapping and mark-making\, Hassig’s work ranges from expansive multi-panel etchings of his fictional country\, Saiopor\, to densely detailed ink drawings inspired by close observations of nature. His practice merges precision and play\, incorporating printmaking\, cyanotype\, collage\, and sewn elements that highlight both meticulous craftsmanship and improvisation. \n  \nThank you to our generous 2026 Annual Exhibition Sponsor\, Alpine Bank

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Lindsey Yeager
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: Friday\, December 11 from 5 PM- 7 PM\nArtist Talk: Friday\, December 11 at 5:30 PM\nOn view: December 11\, 2026 to January 2\, 2027 \n  \nLindsey Yeager creates large-scale gouache paintings that explore disconnection\, grief\, transformation\, and the emotional weight of living in a rapidly changing world. Their work merges personal narrative with broader cultural anxieties–examining loss\, fear\, and the longing to be understood. Through vivid imagery and metaphor\, the paintings probe the messy\, creature-like experience of navigating a world that often feels uninhabitable. \n  \nThank you to our generous 2026 Annual Exhibition Sponsor\, Alpine Bank
