Deirdre Schanen: The Past Two Decades

The David Barnett Gallery is proud to present Deirdre Schanen: The Past Two Decades, an exhibition of artworks by Wisconsin artist Deirdre Schanen. Influenced by artists like Helen Frankenthaler and Mark Rothko, Schanen’s work often avoids identifiable subject matter, instead emphasizing the atmosphere and texture of the painted surface. Born in Port Washington, Schanen traces this fascination with space and texture to the natural scenery of Lake Michigan. Combined with emotionally charged titles like “All That Vast Yesterday” and “Must This Be,” Schanen’s work provides a deeply personal exploration of the intersection between artistry, process, and identity.

The Railroad and the Art of Place: Photographs by David Kahler

The exhibition The Railroad and the Art of Place: Photographs by David Kahler traces industrial rail lines across America’s Appalachian coal country. Once thriving economic centers, Kahler’s view of small-town West Virginia and Kentucky illustrates the ebb and flow of communities dependent on railroad traffic amidst the decline of the once powerful coal industry. Desolate, yet beautiful, Kahler’s photographs expertly capture the raw emotions attached to the railroad industry.
