The Blue Mountain Gallery to Host Exhibition of Work by Carol Heft, 3/1-26

The Blue Mountain Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of work by Carol Heft from March 1 - 26, 2016. The exhibition will include collage, drawing, painting, digital images, and constructions in a variety of materials. Ms. Heft's work is inspired by an exploratory approach to materials, and the interchange of two and three dimensional space on flat surfaces. Her new work combines physical and illusionary layers of space populated by imaginative formal combinations. With careful attention to composition, random arrangements are juxtaposed in compelling designs.

There will be a concert and gallery talk on March 26, Saturday, from 2:00 - 4:00 at the gallery performed by The Bill Warfield Hell's Kitchen Funk Orchestra.

Born in 1954, Carol Heft studied painting with Robert Brackman, National Academician, from the age of 12 - 16. She then attended the Rhode Island School of Design where she studied with Lisa Chase, Leland Bell, Judy Pfaff, and other visiting artists and instructors. After graduating in 1976, Ms. Heft moved to New York City, where she currently lives and works. Carol Heft teaches drawing, painting, 2 dimensional design, and technical drawing at Muhlenberg College, and Cedar Crest College, in Allentown PA, and St. Joseph's College in Brooklyn, NY. Contact Marcia Clark at the gallery for further information.
