"Do You Think Too Much Too?" is a one-day pop-up exhibition at The Hill Street Country Club featuring the work of artist Addy Lyon. From the gallery: Addy Lyon is an interdisciplinary artist located in Vista, CA. She creates art with the motive of personal healing while revealing her own truths in an array of mediums. She is very intrigued by using materials which are traditionally overlooked, highlighting the use of pre-existing materials like newspaper, fabrics and thread. There are many conversations to be had regarding mental health, societal norms and the feminine experience which she relays through creative expression. In hopes for viewers to think about these concepts she creates for herself while also holding space for others to have their own perspectives on the pieces she creates.

The Timken is fortunate to have a collection of Russian icons. This form of sacred art of the Eastern Rite is to a great extent important to the development of Renaissance art. Mostly tempera on panel, these icons are portraits of Jesus and his mother, saints, or Bible episodes depicted in the Byzantine style. In the Timkens's own early Renaissance works, the influence of these icons can be seen. We will discuss some of the salient points about this unique art form in order to understand its meaning and significance in this docent-led talk. Date | Thursday, May 5 from 11 a.m. to noon Location | Online via Zoom Register here for free! For more information, please visit timkenmuseum.org/calendar/event/free-virtual-talk-russian-icons-at-the-timken or contact Alexandra Riley at ariley@timkenmuseum.org or by phone at (619) 550-5955.
