Andy Wroble and Brad Schwieger

Opening Reception: May 5th from 5:30-7 PM, with Artist’s remarks by Andy beginning at 6PM.

Show Title: Conversation

We are excited to welcome two well-known artists in May to the Chadima Gallery.  Andy Wroble is a painter from Harper’s Ferry Iowa, and Brad Schwieger is a Ceramic Artist and Professor of Art and Ceramics at Ohio University. Their collaborative show is entitled “Conversation” and reflects their decades long friendship to generate new work in a semi-collaborative way. Be sure to stop in for their Opening Reception during May’s NewBo Thursday Art Walk from 5:30pm-7pm on May 5th, with artist remarks by Andy beginning at 6pm.

Artists Statement: This show will exhibit work by two friends who attended art school at the University of Iowa in the early eighties.  Their friendship continues and the artists have shared ideas and images of their work with each over the past year, to generate new work in a semi collaborative way.  Wroble has responded to Schwieger’s ceramic sculpture and Schwieger to Wroble’s paintings.  They are excited to see their works in the same space.

Opening Reception: May 5th from 5:30pm-7:00pm with artist remarks beginning at 6:00 pm. 

The show will remain in the gallery from May 5th through May 28th
