Sparks Gallery’s programming in 2022 will explore the theme and concept of “perspective” from exhibited and represented artists at the gallery. Following a history of strong sales and diverse subject matter, Russian-born artist Alexander Arshansky leads the programming for 2022 with new work exemplifying his artistic style, while exploring shifting perspectives in Silent Witness. Alexander Arshansky revels in the concept of personifying his art, in that it serves as an observer. As a “witness” who silently experiences multiple lives and homes, the art is handed down through generations. We may draw parallels to other common “witnesses” in our lives, such as toys, cars, clothes, jewelry, vases, or even people, such as taxi drivers or postal workers. In observing those who are typically the observer, we are briefly allowed a change of perspective, if only to understand others better. Arshansky’s works will be on view at Sparks Gallery from January 16 through March 13. We invite you to join us in the gallery on Sunday, January 16 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. for the opening reception. Please RSVP here! For more information, please visit sparksgallery.com/product-category/gallery-exhibitions/silent-witness or call (619) 696-1416.
