Led By Jesús

“Around the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, I found myself drawn to stories about horses and the people who care for them — sparked in part by watching the Concrete Cowboys documentary … One day, while taking my car to my local mechanic, Jesús, I noticed a dusty photograph above his workbench … The image showed a rider in street clothes atop a horse on a racetrack. I was immediately drawn to it. I asked Jesús where the photo was taken.

“His eyes lit up as he described a local Mexican horse racing scene — a grassroots event where people pull up in pickup trucks with coolers of beer and watch horses race on dirt tracks. It sounded like a world completely its own. After doing some research, I found out where one of these events was happening and decided to go document it … As I arrived, an older man approached and asked, ‘Amigo, what are you doing here?’ I explained, then moved quietly through the crowd, camera in hand. What I witnessed that day was joy, laughter, and a sense of ease — families and friends gathering on a quiet Sunday in the middle of nowhere, in a small Midwestern town. This series is my attempt to capture that spirit: the people, the horses, and the quiet beauty of a community doing something they love. Jesús didn’t just fix my car, he led me to something real” – Isaac Harris.

You Are Welcome! – Teddy Dean Lepley III

“You are Welcome!” is an autobiographical exhibition of prints and drawings by Teddy Dean Lepley III. Through figurative drawings, caricature-esque etchings and expressive woodcuts, Lepley shares a life shaped by queer shame, love, loss and irony. Translating a drawing into a print becomes an editing process for Lepley. The mirrored image of a block or plate challenges them to think differently, opening up the work to fantastic surprises. Each image holds a moment: a feeling, a person or a place.

This exhibition speaks to the complexity of human experience by sharing a life that is not simple, but honest.

GROWTH EDGE: MARSHA MACK

Featuring glazed ceramic and glass, introspection, overwhelm and emotional reality underscore works in the exhibition. Dressed in a nervous smile, Growth Edge uses imagery including crying eyes, happy faces, hearts, and butterflies in a femme aesthetic that allude to an inner world of emotions and indecision.

Taking its name from the popular psychology term, “growth edge” refers to the limits of one’s previous experience, knowledge, and comfort levels through which one must travel in order to mature or heal. Poised on pedestals or hanging in suspense, Growth Edge is a rumination on connection and dissonance, longing and avoidance.

The Art of Eli Rosenblatt & Ann Baer

Eli Rosenblatt was born and raised in Milwaukee, where he was exposed to art through his parents, Adolph and Suzanne – both artists. Come enjoy his current body of paintings, which range in subject matter from smokey bar scenes to vibrant landscapes and even some controversial political pieces.

Ann Baer creates tall, elegant sculptures from wood objects found in resale shops. The repurposed wood is then spray painted with a glossy, colorful basecoat/clear coat automotive finish. The work is then paired with acrylic or watercolor paintings that mirror the shapes and colors of the structures.

We’ll also have a handful of other amazing guest artists this month at Rosenquist Fine Art. Come check out the newly expanded gallery space and have a snack and drink with us!
