Feathered
January 06 - February 10,2024
From Erin Cluley Gallery: "ERIN CLULEY GALLERY is pleased to announce a new group show, Feathered, dedicated to the intimate and creative connection between birds, humans, and art and That Gentle Hue – an exhibition of new work by Dallas-based artist Will Murchison. Both exhibitions will be on view January 6th through February 10th, 2024, at the gallery’s main location, 150 Manufacturing Street, Suite 210. An opening reception will be held Saturday, January 6th, 2024, from 5 – 7 PM. The gallery is open weekly Wednesday through Saturday, 12 – 5 PM and by appointment. Assembling an international group of artists, Feathered, a new exhibition at Erin Cluley Gallery, dedicates itself to the visual contemplation of our avian companions. From the prehistoric paintings of the Lascaux cave to present day, the bond between humans and birds has been marked by observation: either through a set of binoculars or from a National Geographic program, these winged creatures continue to capture our imagination and attention. The interdisciplinary roster in Feathered surveys contemporary art’s enduring bond with birds. The exhibition features work from Mexico, Spain, and Australia among Texas-based artists. Sydney-based photographer, Leila Jeffreys, previously seen in Erin Cluley Gallery’s Summer 2023 exhibition, exhibits new hyper-detailed images; while posing her avian models, Jeffreys develops a trusting relationship with her subjects to record their unique personalities and features. Alexa Brooks’ watercolor paintings look to the natural environment in Spain, pulling birds from their habitats to soft, intricate compositions à la William Morris and Medieval illuminated manuscripts. Emphasizing formal variation and experimentation, Feathered allows viewers to reconsider and reflect on their connection to birds and all non-human animals. _______ Works will be included by: ALEXA BROOKS (Madrid, Spain) LEILA JEFFREYS (Sydney, Australia) JOHN MIRANDA (Dallas, TX) IKE E. MORGAN (Austin, TX) NIC NICOSIA (Dallas, TX) MAGDALENA RANTICA (Oaxaca, Mexico) ZEKE WILLIAMS (Dallas, TX) "
