In the Main Level Gallery, <em>The Nod: Pastiche Art<\/em> celebrates historical artists and movements and the practice of contemporary homage. \u201cAll of the paintings I made for this show were created with the specific intention of emulating or imitating the styles or subject matter of artists that have inspired and shaped my own work,\u201d says Jon Sours. \u201cWhile these influences often find their way into my work unconsciously, it was an interesting exercise to really embrace the parameters and methods set by other painters and attempt to synthesize what it was that inspired me in the first place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the Lower Level Gallery, <em>Hyperrealism<\/em> explores artistic deception through the optically tricky work of 10 skillful artists. Ishmael Leaver, for example, transforms PVC panels to look like steel. \u201cI paint, then age, the surfaces to look old and rusted and heavy all while being new and lightweight,\u201d says Leaver.<\/p>\n<p><em>Vista and Vessel<\/em> in the Showcase Gallery exhibits the baskets of Carole Hetzel alongside oil paintings by Luke Allsbrook. For this exhibition, Hetzel is exhibiting a continuation of a specific style she calls the Brendan Basket, named after her son. \u201cBrendan motivated me to go outside my comfort zone of weaving by encouraging me to combine stainless steel with the natural fiber,\u201d says Hetzel. \u201cThe Brendan Basket was conceived by weaving one continuous strand of steel cable with natural reed.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_70336\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-70336\" class=\"wp-image-70336\" src=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Blue-Spiral-1-Sunset-on-Silvers-Cove.-Luke-Allsbrook-artist-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Blue-Spiral-1-Sunset-on-Silvers-Cove.-Luke-Allsbrook-artist-copy.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Blue-Spiral-1-Sunset-on-Silvers-Cove.-Luke-Allsbrook-artist-copy-300x181.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Blue-Spiral-1-Sunset-on-Silvers-Cove.-Luke-Allsbrook-artist-copy-1024x616.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Blue-Spiral-1-Sunset-on-Silvers-Cove.-Luke-Allsbrook-artist-copy-768x462.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Blue-Spiral-1-Sunset-on-Silvers-Cove.-Luke-Allsbrook-artist-copy-810x487.jpg 810w, https:\/\/thelaurelofasheville.com\/updatestage\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Blue-Spiral-1-Sunset-on-Silvers-Cove.-Luke-Allsbrook-artist-copy-1140x686.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-70336\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sunset on Silvers Cove.
