Studio Wall by Fern Apfel

The Arts Center of the Capital Region, Troy, NY
From David Brickman's review on Get Visual:
[...] In the Arts Center's Foyer Gallery, is a sweet, strong exhibition by Fern Apfel titled Studio Wall. Apfel is a longtime favorite of mine, and this collection shows why - modestly sized but with an ambitious mix of media, Apfel's art is like a cultural note-taking process with beauty as a requirement.
Hudson River Contemporary: Works on Paper
June 15, 2011 – September 15, 2011
The Boscobel Exhibition Gallery, Garrison, NY
75th Annual Artists of the Mohawk-Hudson Region
| July 9, 2011 - September 4, 2011 |
Albany Institute of History & Art, Albany, NY
Among the highlights for me were new works by familiar names: Richard Garrison's four wittily bloodless Circular Color Schemes; another set of four works by Fern Apfel that blend color-field abstraction with simple realism; Paul Mauren's wall-hung aluminum and wood sculptures; two fine color portraits by photographer Peter Crabtree; and two "non-narrative silent videos" by Bil Jaeger.
