Wilde Meyer presents “Interpretations,” a show focusing on the varying ways each artist views and depicts their subject matter. One artist, Robert Anderson, creates entrancing, abstract “visual songs” where striking colors create harmony, melody, and texture containing rich meanings significant to each viewer in differing ways.
Brian Boner sees and depicts his subject matter in an entirely different way. Using a more representational approach, his work is the embodiment and transformation of ideas and feelings into tangible form. His figural and sometimes collage-like compositions give a sense of memory and nostalgia.
Timothy Chapman began his collegiate career in biology which went on to influence his artistic and visual interpretations of wildlife. He refers to his style as “Invented Natural History Illustration.” His work attempts to illustrate the conflict between real and the imaginary. It is a take on nature that the precision of video and photography cannot replicate.
Also showing with be Tony Dow, Ana Marini-Genzon, Patricia Hunter, Jacqueline Ellens, Rena Vandewater and many others.
Opening reception will be Thursday, May 8th from 5-7PM.
Wilde Meyer will be displaying “Views of the West”, an exploration of the varying ways our artists depict their western surroundings. Roger Alderman takes a “Plein Air” approach to his work. He uses bold color and expressive brushwork to replicate not just the appearance, but the energy and spirit of the landscape.
Sushe Felix’s work draws from American early 20th century stylized artists, like the Transcendental Painting Group in Santa Fe, yet is still representational of the natural world. With a focus on line and shape, her stylized animals and landscapes capture a moment in time.
Michael Baum’s western landscapes, are handled with finer brushwork to create subtle atmospheric style. Also showing will be Amy Watts, Barbara Gurwitz, Michelle Chrisman, Ka Fisher, and many others.
Known for their fabulous animal artists, Wilde Meyer Gallery will be presenting a show highlighting our nonhuman companions. Everything from the usual dogs and cats to feathered friends and rabbits will be represented.

Opening April 10, 2014 in conjunction with Scottsdale Gallery Association’s “Bone Appétit” ArtWalk – Wilde Meyer Gallery —– and Wilde Meyer Annex —– 7PM – 9PM.

Included will be artist Karen Bezuidenhout, whose work carries rough abstractions of her people and animal subjects to the minimum to express her ideas. Jamie Ellsworth paints mostly animals. Ellsworth’s paintings could work as pure abstractions as well as portraying playful animals. Sherri Belassen’s figurative abstractions are spontaneous and addictive. No one can buy just one. Barbara Gurwitz astounds the viewer with gutsy color and complicated landscape compositions.
Other artists showing include Ka Fisher, Linda Carter Holman, Bill Colt, Martha Braun, Kristin Knight, and many more.
Opening February 27, 2014 – Wilde Meyer Annex —– and Wilde Meyer Gallery.
Jim Nelson, though not Native by blood, is the sparrow who hunts with the hawks. His study and travels through the Nez Perce country, lead him to paint and interpret a time when animal spirits were tied to everyday life. The colors he uses are strong intense, and based on the sacred power colors of the Lakota People.
Susano Morales is a second-generation Oaxacan carver, and is considered the best of the 2nd generation of wood carvers. Unlike most Oaxacan carvers, Susana is able to achieve the appearance of fluid movement in his carved animals. Susano’s wife, Tibida Jimenez Morales, the niece of Manual Jimenez who is credited with pioneering Oaxacan carvings, is the painter of these beautiful carvings.
Other artists shown give modern and traditional interpretations of native folklore. Other artists showing include Linda Carter Holman, Deb Komitor and Greg Dye.

Show will be on display in both Scottsdale galleries.
Wilde Meyer will present a variety of western interpretations ranging from serious representational works to quirky western interpretations. Artists presented include Thom Ross whose stylized paintings appeal to the true western buff as well as a contemporary art lover. Thom’s paintings portray famous western characters in a simplified rugged “shoot em up” style. In contrast, Joseph Young’s paintings show Western cowboys along with their faithful animal companions in a Southwestern version of the Garden of Eden, where everything is relaxed and enjoyable.
No Wilde Meyer western show could be complete without horses. Chaille Trevor knows and paints horses like no one else. Straightforward and to the point, Chaille’s paintings capture the correct anatomy and graceful movement of one of the world’s most beautiful animals. Tracy Miller’s fauvist colored paintings of western wild animals contrast greatly with Chaille’s soft subtle horses. Miller’s interpretations engage the viewer, first through an attraction to bright color, then with the playful rendering of the animals’ personalities.
Also showing are Amy Watts, James Swanson, Doug Weigel, Fran Larson, Leigh Gusterson and others.

“Gem Show” runs February 6, 2014 and continues through March 1, 2014.
Established in 1983, Wilde Meyer Gallery moves it’s 30 year anniversary celebration to Tucson. Please join us for “The Journey – 30 Years”, opening January 9, 2014, 7 – 9 PM.
The gallery will be highlighting artists who have been with them for many years, Linda Carter Holman, Barbara Gurwitz, Charles Davison to name a few, and also highlighting artists added on the 30 year journey. Linda Carter Holman is the ultimate storyteller, combining fantasy with reality. In the painting “Little Winds”, young maidens float through air as the personification of wind. They are grounded by the beautiful woman walking in the landscape foreground, but she seems to be contemplating lifting off to join the weightless girls.
Charles Davison’s native and folk influenced mixed media pieces have charmed Wilde Meyer’s collectors for many years. Davison’s distinctive work is always recognizable. Often referencing religious icons, Davison gives his interpretations of Old Testament heroes like Jonah and the Whale, and New Testament Saints, like the charming naive St Francis, surrounded by stylized animals in “Brother’s Keeper”.
Barbara Gurwitz’s Fauvist colored landscapes have knocked the socks off collectors for over 20 years at Wilde Meyer. Paintings by other prestigious artists like Jacqueline Rochester, Stephen Morath, Sherri Belassen, Patricia Hunter, Nancy Pendleton and others too numerous to mention, will also be shown.
