This event has ended.

David Mollett and Jessie Hedden are pleased to announce an exhibition at Bowery Gallery in Chelsea, opening Thursday, January 6, 2011 and continuing through January 29th. Mollett and Hedden are painters from Fairbanks, Alaska. This will be their third exhibition at Bowery Gallery. Both teach at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.

Well known throughout the state of Alaska, Mollett has 33 solo exhibitions to his credit. He will be showing field paintings of Rainbow Creek on Turnagain Arm near Anchorage. These studies are to be used for a 9' X 32' painting commission for the entry at the Ted Stevens International Airport in Anchorage. Mollett will also show landscape drawings, paintings and prints from various locations in Alaska and elsewhere.

Hedden has shown widely in Alaska and recently exhibited at the Well Street Art Company in Fairbanks and the Anchorage Museum's biennial juried show in Anchorage. She received a Rasmuson Foundation Project grant in support of the work in this exhibition. In her collages and paintings, she builds an abstract image based on spatial and color studies from nature.

Both artists work is closely tied to the wilderness place in which they live. Much of Jessie's work in this exhibition is inspired by field studies of deep woods and vista views at Angel Rocks, north of Fairbanks. Mollett worked extensively in the field at Denali National Park.
