Local artist and gallery owner, Emily Andress, brings you four monumental paintings packed with meaning and interpretation. What part of American History will you discover in The Turnings: A Cycle of American Time?
On display beginning June 24, experience four layered and emotional paintings by Emily Andress at the Gaston County Museum of Art & History.
In this series, Emily Andress explores four repeating moments in American History that creat a cycle through time. The four phases are Spring: The High, Summer: The Awakening, Autumn: The Unraveling, and Winter: The Crisis.
This series does not seek to resolve history, but to reflect it; to hold its contradictions, its repetitions, and its consequences. As the seasons move forward, they also return.
