B3 Gallery and Ascension Fine Arts are opening three new shows. A reception is 4 to 7 p.m. today for featured artists Jennifer Engledow, Lynne Medsker and Jessica and Sharon Bussert. Live music will be provided by Brown County musicians Sally and Rich Greeno.
Engledow’s photography features primarily European landscapes. Many of her photos have been printed to glass, which gives a depth and glow to the images.
Medsker is a mixed media artist from Martinsville. Her show, "Intuitive Abandon," will feature free-flowing abstract mixed-media pieces using intuitive mark making, painting and collage.
"Flow" features water-themed photographs by Jessica and Sharon Bussert. The two women are Nashville residents who travel extensively and have won awards for their photographs. Images in the show have been taken across the United States.
All shows will remain hanging through Nov. 30.
The galleries are at 61 W. Main St., on the second floor of the Village Green Building. For more information about these shows or other artists, contact the gallery at 812-988-6675 or visit B3.bussert.com.
Learn about historic painter Gustave Baumann
The Brown County Art Gallery will host a program and exhibit centered around printmaker and painter Gustave Baumann Saturday at the gallery, 1 Artist Drive.
The event will serve as a premiere for Martin Krause‘s book, "Gustave Baumann’s Of a County Called Brown." Between 3 and 6 p.m., Krause will give a program and attendees can meet with him, enjoy food and wine and view the Baumann exhibit. Krause also will do a book signing. Tickets are $20.
The book tells of Baumann’s formative years in Brown County in his own words. The cover features a Baumann tempura from the Brown County Art Gallery’s collection, "The Road of a Morning," along with many images inside.
Visitors also will be able to see the Collector’s Showcase, "Steele and Shulz: A Brown County Partnership," which celebrates the relationship which led to the gallery’s founding.
