First Friday in the Crossroads; opening of Grayscale

Join us on Friday, November 5th from 4-7pm at the Weinberger main gallery for Grayscale.

Grayscale is an exhibition featuring works in the black and white monochrome. A carefully curated selection of works featuring artists Zack Smithey, Kyle Goddard, Amy Feldman, Linda Lighton, and more, will be on view starting November 5th through the end of the year.


For this exhibition, the WFA team sought to showcase works in stark contrast to our recent exhibition Life on the Brighter Side, and choose a selection of artists who's work pairs nicely with new WFA artist Zack Smithey's process-driven works. Most of the works you'll see will be fairly large scale, abstracted works on canvas, reminiscent of abstract expressionists Franz Kline and Robert Motherwell.

Join us for the opening on First Friday, November 5th. We'll be open from 11am to 7pm. Weinberger Fine Art is located at 114 Southwest Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri.

Artists include:

Featured Artist : Kuzana Ogg Final Day

Weinberger Fine Art is pleased to announce Kuzana Ogg as the gallery’s latest Featured Artist. Ogg’s work will be on view February 23 - April 24. Hours are Tuesdays - Fridays from 10-6pm and Saturdays from 12-5pm.

" The principles that govern my aesthetic are balance and restraint. My early years in India were flooded with noise, color, and fragrance. My grandparents’ home in Bombay was somewhat buffered from the outside chaos of people and cars by lush gardens. This paradise of quietly growing coconut trees, exotic lilies, and always newly turned wet red earth was invaded hourly by squalling parrots and barbarous crows. Their cries filtered through the foliage as though they were the softened echoes of the havoc on the streets. 

Going anywhere in Bombay requires infinite patience and time. A simple errand to get a plastic bucket devolves into an all-day affair involving epic traffic jams and monsoon-huge waves crashing over the seawall. But, even as a very small child—I was easily distracted by the lurid Bollywood billboards rushing past the car window and promises of notebooks with endpapers of fuchsia block-printed flowers and new erasers in the shape of rabbits or fried eggs.  

Bombay is steeped in perfume—from yards of jasmine and roses garlanding doors, to sandalwood burning at the fire temple, to a hundred different lunches cooking at the same time—there is always fragrance in the air. It might be ordinary, like freshly watered concrete walls or the starched muslin saris of nursery school teachers; or extraordinary, like the scent of raw silk stored in the recesses of a teak wardrobe. Its presence everywhere instilled the conviction in me that just as fragrance occupies a stratum deeper than sight or sound, majesty is also hidden beneath the surface of things, and majesty is an anchor that restrains and balances the chaos of experience. It is the primordial root that underlies even the most discordant things. 

The general pandemonium of Bombay in the early 1970s serves as a visual alphabet. Through my travels and migrations, this alphabet continues to recombine, developing into a painterly language. In any form of communication, I have found the principles of restraint and balance to be the most formidable and eloquent. "

Northern Catch by Lindsay Dunnagan Final Day

Northern Catch by Lindsay Dunnagan Final Day

Final day to see Northern Catch by WFA artist Lindsay Dunnagan.

“This series is a pleasure project  inspired by my childhood of growing up in Anchorage, Alaska where I spent time by  the ocean and watched the sky for the Aurora Borealis.  Each piece is multi layered and includes images of fish nets, the shapes of icebergs, and patterns found in the Alaskan landscape, such as ice striations.  

Formally, some pieces are linked to one another because the series responds to and plays with process scraps.  For example,  Migrating Silver is made of several paper layers.   The top layer has a hole cut in the shape of a fish net.   Inside the hole are other fish net and ice berg shapes cut out of other paintings.   Every cut form becomes part of a new work.   

The playful process of this work parallels my glance back at childhood.   By manipulating shapes from the place I love, the work evokes a panglossian nostalgia. “

Artist Talk with James Woodfill

Artist Talk with James Woodfill

Join us on Saturday, January 11th from 3-5pm for an artist talk with James Woodfill about his solo exhibition CODE PRACTICE. Remarks will begin promptly at 3:30. The Drawing Room is located at 1903 Wyandotte.

CODE PRACTICE is an exhibition of artifacts excavated from James Woodfill’s personal investigations. James Woodfill’s practice has taken inspiration from many sources, from architectural models and hollow core doors to stagecraft and music, alongside the conditions of production and decision making he has set for himself. He amplifies these conditions as he works and reworks his approach leaving the residue of these processes behind at each stage: this residue is what we observe. This most recent work returns to a fundamental connection to painting and color present in his earliest work.

Woodfill’s approach embraces the provisional: the context of the world, his life, and his studio is not static and neither is the work. Instead of observing his artifacts, the residue, with a sense of heroic completion, Woodfill’s art inspires yet another set of parameters, yet another set of adjustments. As he engages with this practice he synchronizes with the provisional by making adjustments that resonate and create an active present outcome. It is when this energy is generated that Woodfill know’s he is where he needs to be within his temporary context and that his exploration has been successfully exemplified. Often the conclusion he arrives at is different from the conclusion he sought, but that is where the magic resides. Tomorrow will always be another story.

This most recent work returns to a fundamental connection to painting and color present in his earliest work.

Like slicing and dicing a bushel of apples that must become juice before fermenting into vinegar, Woodfill’s work evolves in tandem with the conditions and context of his practice. Apples can give way to vinegar, but are equally likely to yield sauce, cake, or pie. It's all a matter of approach and the approach is culpable to the fluid nature of its context.

November First Friday: Tom Gregg at The Drawing Room

Please join us in The Drawing Room on Friday, November 1st from 5 - 8pm for a public opening of SHELF LIFE, a solo exhibition of paintings by Tom Gregg

Kansas City artist Tom Gregg paints fantastically realistic still lifes that pair bright color palettes with object clusters driven by metaphor and narrative. Ranging from the everyday beauty of melons and persimmons, to the romance of stemware and elegant ashtrays, to the ominous look of grenades posed in candy hued backgrounds, Gregg observes objects and their environment as a visual drama that provide him with a range of formal elements to explore and the unique ability to exert control over the scenes. 

Gregg’s interest in still life painting stems from a fascination with the simple and profound existence of objects. Objects share the world of people while remaining independent of our struggles and exertions. Objects maintain a steadfast otherness while acquiring their meaning through our physical world: they are of our world, yet in a distinct world of their own — the world of things. 

The Drawing Room is located at 1903 Wyandotte, Kansas City, MO 64108

His unique visual language results in canvases dripping with dewy-skinned models, gem-toned flora and fauna, and richly patterned textiles. His method of applying watercolor to canvas gives these images a sense of immediacy that matches the youthfulness and vigor of his subject matter while conjuring a sense of playfulness and innocence.
