Art lovers invited to wind down with final summer Gallery Walk

“In art, as in any profession, knowledge is power,” the great 19th-century American landscape artist Thomas Moran once said. “I must know the geology. I must know the rocks and the trees and the atmosphere and the mountain torrents and the birds that fly in the blue ether above me.”

Landscapes, especially Western landscapes, have inspired generations of other artists after Moran, and a good variety of landscapes will greet art lovers on the Sept. 1 Gallery Walk in Ketchum—alongside myriad other works in a variety of media, including sculpture and photography, in realist, impressionist and abstract modes.

Art lovers are invited to stroll the 14 participating galleries and enjoy complimentary wine on the last Gallery Walk of summer 2017.

6. Lipton Fine Arts

Lipton Fine Arts presents new works by local artist Deborra Marshall Bohrer in a solo show. Marshall Bohrer will be present for the Gallery Walk, and her works will remain on exhibition through the end of September.

“I’m inspired at the amount of effort of work that Deborra does to produce a painting,” said Lipton Fine Arts owner Gary Lipton. “Priming, scraping and grinding with power tools and the almighty palette knife with layers upon layers of paint. When looking at the paintings, you can just see so much depth. Her paintings express a stylistic resemblance of love and tenderness.”

Marshall Bohrer will show pieces from her Sandhill crane series and others and new works, “Scenes From the Hidden Garden,” inspired by her own gardens. Her fascination with form and figure as well as years of skill and experience allows her to present the elegance of cranes and nature through her own style of painting, which is mostly performed with a palette knife.

For more information, call Lipton at 248-561-5120.
