featuring Marty Weishaar's Mixed Media Art

Sunday is the last day to see the exhibit! 

Open Saturday & Sunday 12:00pm - 4:00pm

Weishaar's seemingly disorganized objects are thoughtfully constructed of common materials such as packing tape, zip ties, cardboard, matchbox cars and spray foam. At first glance, these forms (that rarely include a right angle) seem to be both toppling and rising at the same time. His work forms symbolic relationships between traditional and nontraditional materials with various historical approaches, such as conceptualism and intuituve abstraction.
