ABRAMSON GALLERY

Ishka Lha
"HeART Opening"

Ishka Lha exhibit, HeART Opening

With her imagery, Ishka reveals a world of the eternal Beauty that is all things. A river of elementals, cosmic beings, and magical beasts swirl together in one great flood of light and shadow, emanating the shapes and colors illuminated within the Beloved’s kaleidoscope. With every turning of the wheel, an ever-changing cycle of Life appears. Dawn spills into the night sky, a blossom falls as a cherry grows; and the movement in our mind trickles down into a land where thoughts kneel before a pool of peaceful waters, watching silently, as Spirit emerges from the depths.

Visit our Abramson Gallery page for more information.

Dorr Bothwell
"Heritage Artist"

Dorr Bothwell, Heritage Artist

Artist Dorr Bothwell made an extraordinary gift to the Mendocino Art Center. The donation of 705 original prints from 56 editions, featuring three decades of her work and experimentation in the media of serigraphy (silk-screen prints).

The serigraphs are but a small part of her artistic output. They do, however, give us a glimpse of her interests, her vision of Mendocino, and a life of travel.

Visit our Gallery Ten page for more information.
