Art Scene West Gallery is pleased to present over thirty paintings encompassing California Landscapes by artists Darrel Mcpherson and John Cornfield. A gallery reception will take place Saturday, April 30th from 3p.m.-7p.m.. Darrel McPherson has been an active painter for over 50 years and his works have been collected globally and shown in multiple galleries across the country. Ranging in artistic style from impressionism to figurativism, McPherson consistently inspires viewers with his soft color palette and dreamy landscapes. John Cornfield has been studying drawing and painting for over 20 years, including workshops with many of the top plein air artists in the country. Inspired by an older generation of Southwest and California Impressionists, his landscapes follow in their unique use of color and form. John’s paintings are found in private and public collections and have been exhibited in galleries in La Quinta, Santa Monica, Montecito, Miami and Sonoma. This exhibition is representative of a fresh energy and excitement in the Solana Beach Design District, where Art Scene West Gallery is promoting local art creation and collaboration.

Carlsbad's civic art space, Cannon Art Gallery, will open a new exhibition, "Reimagined: The Artist's Book," this weekend. It's a not-so-subtle literary nod to the gallery's building-mate, the library. Each work in the exhibition is created from or inspired by books, and it includes the work of fourteen world-class book art artists — plenty of them locals, including Sage Serrano, Elena Lomakin, Viviana Lombrozo, Amandine Nabarra, Judith Christensen and Gina Pisello. You'll find conceptual works, incredible works of bookbinding, book-inspired ceramics and of course sculptures made out of actual books and pages. An opening reception on Saturday evening will be held in the outdoor courtyard. In April, Serrano will also be leading a bookmaking workshop (details forthcoming). Details: Opens Saturday, Feb. 26, 2022 with a reception from 5 to 7 p.m. and is on view through May 14. Gallery hours are Tuesday-Thursday from noon to 7 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from noon to 5 p.m. Cannon Art Gallery, 1775 Dove Lane, Carlsbad. Free. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS From the gallery: Feb. 26 - May 14, 2022 What happens when the worlds of art and books intersect? The resulting spectrum ranges from innovative designed books to unique and beautifully sculpted artist books. Imagine an artist looking at the very concept of printed material, such as a book, and seeing the raw material for a new and exciting work of art. The objects in this exhibition interpret the concept of the book, exploring altering book structures into sculpture or sculptural objects whose only reference to book-ness might be the inclusion of words. The creative force of the featured artists is demonstrated by their ingenuity in reimagining book forms, decorating in new ways and using unconventional materials. Opening Reception Saturday, Feb. 26, 5 - 7 p.m., Free Hosted by the Carlsbad Friends of the Arts Pop-Up Art: An art-making event themed to the exhibit Saturday, April 9, 11 a.m., Free Children’s Garden, Dove Library Complex Related links: William D.
