"Vessels Of Fancy”
New drawings by Jeff Miller
Exhibit Opening Friday 8/16 at 7pm
Jeff Miller is accomplished artist with an insatiable curiosity for male form. His use of the line as an expressive tool is a synthesis of classical form and kinetic energy.
He creates a witty and elegant exploration of the male body with influences by the sinuous line of Art Nouveau and the work of Aubrey Beardsley. His playful and sexy drawing collection feels almost like a constellations, where each sign is ruled by desire, curiosity, attraction and beauty.
Nothing is ever superfluous in Jeff Miller’s artwork, having mastered the form in an artistic evolution that leaves his work seemingly minimal while offering a fresh and architectural take on the body. Discover More..

"We're A Big Colorful Family"
New paintings by Carlo Trevisan
Exhibit Opening Friday 7/26 at 7pm
Carlo Trevisan is an endlessly creative contemporary painter. Selected artist for curated Saatchi Collections, Trevisan's work is shown in galleries around the world, from Hong Kong, to Beijing, Sao Paulo, New York, Rome, Paris, Amsterdam, and all the way to Provincetown.
Trevisan’s images are visionary and often ironic. While his theme is playful, his technique is impeccable, his control of his favorite media (oil on canvas) is remarkable, with beautiful transitions of light and darkness and a powerful sense of color. His minimalist and precise composition focuses the floating subject against Trevisan signature skies, adding a touch of lightness and suspension to the meaning. His colorful and surreal art connects with diverse viewers, disregarding age, language and cultural background. Discover more..

Moments In The Sun
New paintings by Eric Price
Exhibit Opening Friday 6/14 7pm
Moments In The Sun is a solo show by New York and Provincetown based artist Eric Price, showcasing his new oil paintings.
Price is a gifted plein-air painter who grew up surrounded by the beauty of the outdoors and found solace in hiking, swimming, and sailing.
This connection with nature allowed him to come to terms with his queer identity and influences the themes and subjects of his art. Price has been inspired by the beauty of the beach and power of the ocean.
Price's art, set against the backdrop of Provincetown, captures the unbridled freedom and visibility embraced by the queer community, a sanctuary where kinship flourishes.
In his forthcoming exhibition, opening on June 14, 2024, Price weaves inspiration from cherished works of art, many imbued with queer themes. Painting like "Evasion Redux," a homage to Jared French's "Evasion," portrays the tumultuous dance between self-acceptance and societal expectations, positioning the figure within a haven of queer solace. "First Timers" reveals three young men, bravely and provocatively exploring their sexuality publicly for the first time, basking in the glow of the sun and newfound liberation. In "Who Wants to Play," a young man uncovers enchantment by the shore. Discover more..

Titled "Vivid Hopes,” this series presents a collection of acrylic paintings that invite viewers into a world of vibrant imagination and bold experimentation. Salvatori’s work incorporates novel materials and innovative applications, creating textured canvases that are both visually striking and deeply expressive.
The highlights of the show include “Sunset Hope,” a large-scale work that mesmerizes with its dynamic blend of colors, and “Hope Before Dawn” where Salvatori uses unexpected shapes to complement his playful vision. Each piece in the collection represents a part of Salvatori's ongoing interest in pushing his limits and exploring new artistic horizons.
“I spent the last year experimenting with techniques and I feel ready to share the fruit of my work. The perfectionist’s fear is there of course, but there’s always a voice inside me that tells me to play and to try. Each artwork is an invitation to experience the colors, the emotions, the textures and the stories.” Discover more..
From Edgar Award finalist comes a thrilling examination of the murder that captivated Jazz Age America, with echoes of the decadence and violence of The Great Gatsby.
