The Gallery in Mt. Shasta welcomes the 7th Annual Forgery Show of 2019
Each year since 2013, Spring welcomes “The Annual Forgery Show” by the group known as Art Roster. This year we are pleased to announce the 7th Annual Forgery Show of 2019 at a new location: The Gallery in Mt. Shasta in the Black Bear Building. This limited-time show will feature local artists depicting works of expertly-executed reproductions in oil of world-renowned masterworks. The opening reception will be held on Tuesday, April 2nd from 4-7pm.
ArtRoster is an art atelier group who work their craft, at the base of Mt. Shasta, under the tutelage of painter Aleksander Balos. He instructs them in techniques from the Old Masters’ atelier system of the European classical and impressionistic painting schools as well as more contemporary methods. Most of the group has enjoyed art making in a variety of media for many years, and within the last few years their love of painting has brought them together creating, exploring and exhibiting.
This year’s forged paintings will represent famous works by well-known painters such as: Edward Hopper, CM Coolidge, Millet, Paul Delaroche, da Vinci, Berthe Morisot and others. Contributing art ” forgers” for this year’s show include: Lou Wandro, Suzanne van Summern, Lynda Hardy, Janet Crittenden, Anne McTavish, Karen Copsey, Cindy Corrales, Nancy Schneider, Marga Filip, Ann Jensen, Carl Adams, Jenny Purtle, and Lucinda Macy.
The Annual Forgery Show had its beginning in 2013 when ten separate reproductions in oil of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa were displayed at The Gallery in Mt. Shasta. Since that time the show traveled to the Pence Gallery in Davis, CA where Kevin Dupzyk, assistant editor with Popular Mechanics, saw the exhibit. He wrote an article “In the Presence of Greatness? – An improbable trove of masterworks arrives from Mt. Shasta” which ran in the February/March 2017 issue of AmTrak’s magazine “The National”.
As the story goes, the article was read by a prominent architect in New York City. From that, the foundation was laid for a future exhibit at Morris Adjmi Architects in New York City in September of 2017. Several of the artists of ArtRoster attended the show–thus fulfilling their “fifteen minutes of fame”. These dedicated artists meet each week in Mt. Shasta where they continue to learn their craft and engage each other with inspiration and camaraderie. Often a person will enter the art studio and comment on how fantastic the pieces are and comment: “I could never do that; I can’t even draw a stick figure.”
Then several months will pass and that same person will be enrolled in the class. With diligence and guidance, they too are soon producing fantastic oil paintings! The ArtRoster artists express their gratitude to Lesa Michel and The Gallery for hosting the Annual Forgery show. We hope you will join in supporting this group of local talent at the opening reception on Tuesday, April 2nd from 4-7pm. The show runs through Friday, April 5th at The Gallery in Mt. Shasta (in the Black Bear Building), located at 201 N. Mt. Shasta Blvd., Mt. Shasta, CA.

A Show of Hands
Liberty Arts
108 W. Miner Street
Yreka, CA 96097
Opening reception: Friday, September 18, 2015, 5:00 8:00 pm
David Gochenour, the curator for A Show of Hands, was interested in discovering the wonder of the hand and the many ways in which our hands reveal, express and communicate who we are by exploring the role our hands have in this manifestation.
Much about a person is revealed in their hands. Whether a surgeon or a carpenter, a tradesman or a cowboy, an artist or an athlete, pampered or persecuted, our life is written on the parchment of our palms, the bones of our fingers and our sinews, twisted and formed by lifes choices. The submissions received reveal the results of a human hand working and creating, the human hand in action.
A Show of Hands will be on exhibit September 18 October 16, 2015

More about Mona Lisa according to Wikipedia:
The Mona Lisa (La Gioconda or La Joconde, or Portrait of Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo]) is a half-length portrait of a woman by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci, which has been acclaimed as the best known, the most visited, the most written about, the most sung about, the most parodied work of art in the world.
The painting, thought to be a portrait of Lisa Gherardini, the wife of Francesco del Giocondo, is in oil on a poplar panel, and is believed to have been painted between 1503 and 1506. It was acquired by King Francis I of France and is now the property of the French Republic, on permanent display at theMuse du Louvre in Paris. The ambiguity of the subjects expression, frequently described as enigmatic, the monumentality of the composition, the subtle modeling of forms and the atmospheric illusionism were novel qualities that have contributed to the continuing fascination and study of the work.
