November 2012


Greetings!

Painter Maralyn Matlick and photographer Susan Richman met for the first time as members of Upstream.  They soon discovered a shared interest in abstraction, and decided to collaborate for a joint exhibit.  "In Tandem: New Paintings by Maralyn Matlick, New Photographs by Susan Richman" opens Thursday November 8th and runs through Sunday, December 2nd.
 
Please join us to mark this inaugural exhibition by two artists with powerful approaches to abstraction on Sunday, November 11th from 2-5 pm.

"I am much more interested in expressing the essence and feeling of my subject than the subject itself," says Brooklyn-born Matlick.  "I marvel at the unlimited possibilities of a sheet of white paper." 
 
Matlick is a non-representational painter who has won numerous awards for her work. Her paintings have appeared in newspapers and art magazines including, most recently,The Palette.

Richman, Untitled II,Photograph

I'm interested in finding the visual eloquence inherent in everything I encounter.
My intention is to explore the connections between form, light, color, and
reflections to discover how those relationships interact to create engaging images. My Pittsburgh roots have inspired me to seek out urban, industrial and neglected environments, to capture overlooked and often dismissed details. Having worked
as a commercial photographer in NYC for many years, my artistic energy has now shifted to creating this very fulfilling personal work.  ----Susan Richman

Upstream Gallery was started in 1991 by a group of Westchester artists who were looking for a venue to show their work outside of traditional commercial galleries.

 

The gallery has two street level exhibition spaces.  The current artist members work in a variety of media including painting, sculpture, collage / assemblage, print-making and photography.  Styles range from the representational to the abstract.  Members have shown in a wide variety of venues throughout the United States and Europe. Upstream encourages artists to submit their work for review.  Submissions are reviewed on a monthly basis.
