From New York City
The Art of Ron Lent and Ethan Cornell
Mission Viejo, CA – Bob Rickerson, Gallery Director of The Saddleback College Art Gallery is pleased to present Case Studies, an art exhibit, on Wednesday, February 20th through Thursday, March 14th in the Saddleback College Art Gallery. …”The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.” –Albert Einstein. So where is the truth here? Ron and Ethan are both visual artists working on similar paths. Keeping a record of their observations, they attempt to render the true nature of their subjects. BUT, they have gotten a little bit off the map. It’s an elusive place where objects and events can be fleeting. Still, they try to trace the outlines of a world that often exists somewhere in the sideways glimpse, naming it – bringing it into focus – bringing it into existence. “Saddleback College is very proud to bring these two talented artists from New York City to exhibit their works and experimentations to the Art Gallery of the college for our students to explore and ponder.” –Bob Rickerson, Director/Curator, Saddleback College Art Gallery
Gallery hours are Monday, Wednesday, Friday from noon-4 pm and Thursday from Noon to 8 pm. An artists’ reception will be held Tuesday, February 19 from 4-8 pm. The gallery will also be open Saturday, February 23 from 10 am to 2 pm
