Atticus is a sculptor whose work embodies the transformative power of art to create beauty, meaning, and emotional impact from industrial materials. Using aluminum, bronze, copper, and stainless steel mesh—generally found in screen doors/windows and filters—he creates abstract pieces and installations, which sometimes resemble flowers, clouds, and other natural phenomena.

Atticus works spontaneously, feeling his way toward the objects that take shape in mind as he shapes them almost entirely by hand. To some pieces he adds color and texture by applying paint or broken auto glass.

“Metal mesh is a beautiful, flexible material that allows you to explore shadow and transparency in endless ways,” he says. “The material lends itself to these biomorphic shapes, which aren’t necessarily intentional... The sculptures seem fragile but are actually quite resilient—like nature itself.”

Rick Bach was born an artist drawing for as long as he can remember.  He was influenced at an early age by his father who owned an auto body shop which did custom paint work. There are no readymade categories for the artist; he explores all media from works on paper to metal to wood and his style ranges from architectural to figurative. Bach’s motivation is to entertain and provoke while pushing the boundaries between conventional and absurd, functional and useless.  The artist currently resides in Washington, DC, while maintaining a studio in Pittsburgh. 

“I can’t remember a time when I didn’t draw.  It is just something I did and continue to do daily.  Whether it is a painting or sculpture everything starts with drawing.  I work every day to create as much as I can.  My art speaks for me as words do for an author.” - Rick Bach

Over the past 30 years Thomas has discovered his own unique voice through an intrinsic evolution of experimentation and tenacity. He is an artist who creates vibrant abstract paintings which invite the audience to explore the complex nature and seemingly endless flow of color and form. An artist must find meaning in the process, and Bigatel’s unorthodox, inventive approach to the process of painting results in compelling and convincing works of art. In his most recent body of work which began to evolve in 2008, Bigatel utilizes an inherent and intimate flow of color and motion. Thomas Bigatel’s commitment to his medium & his vision are evident in the penetratingly endless depth and illuminating intensity embodied in his powerful paintings.

Thomas was born in Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA in 1959 and studied at LaRoche College (now University) in Pittsburgh in the late 70’s. Thomas is a mostly self-taught artist whose work has evolved over the past years into what it is today.

Bigatel’s paintings have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions in galleries and universities. His genuine vision has evolved over the years into an accomplished body of work consisting of over 1000 artworks, many of which are in private and corporate collections.

Cory Bonnet is an artist and preservationist who paints contemporary nostalgic scenes of Pittsburgh and the surrounding area using salvaged and reclaimed materials.

Bonnet earned a BFA in Drawing and a Minor in Art History from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 1998. The importance of sustainable development was a huge catalyst in defining his work. The use of reclaimed materials and focus on conservation of historic buildings led Bonnet to earn the title of LEED AP from the USGBC. This gave him an in-depth understanding of sustainable building practices and reinforced his commitment to using salvaged, reclaimed or sustainable materials in his work.

Bonnet was named “2017 Preservationist of the Year” by the Young Preservationists Association of Pittsburgh.

Bonnet has worked on a number of community development initiatives and works with local charities to help them reach fundraising goals.

Growing up in the Pittsburgh area, Cory Bonnet has always appreciated the inherent beauty of the city and its surrounding neighborhoods. His paintings reflect the optimism and beauty he sees in his hometown.

Isaac Bower is a visual artist with a BFA in sculpture from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, and an MFA in sculpture from West Virginia University. He was born in 1968 into a family of creatives and scholars, including a painter/illustrator grandfather, a gallery-owner grandmother, a poet/professor father, and an accomplished writer/professor mother. 

Thematically, much of Isaac's artwork has explored the boundary between the natural and artificial world. Stylistically, his work has often employed the use of patterning and modular approaches. Isaac's undergraduate education was rooted in ceramics, but he soon began to work with wood, found elements and later various mold-making and casting techniques. 

His work has often stayed near to the line between art and craft, influenced in part by various commission projects involving furniture, lighting, and custom architectural features. Isaac has been based in Pittsburgh, PA since 2004, when he established his studio in the Polish Hill section of the city.

Terry’s work embroideries and unconventional sewing techniques connect audiences to lost memories, forgotten dreams, and personal histories by allowing an access point to the unconsciousness. The repetitive nature of the sewing process serves as a visual mantra that triggers a meditative state. Removing the referent to the external world, his sewn “paintings” guide the viewer back to the unending and elegance of the line, and invite the viewer to look inward for meaning.

His current work uses embroidery to capture how the media of the mid 90s & early 2000s influenced my sexual development and understanding. I’m revisiting the colorful stills burned into the back of my head from HBO’s late night programming, scrambled “ Skinemax” abstractions, and my first encounters of internet pornography.

Zach Brown was born and raised in the small town of Mars Pennsylvania. After high school he attended the Rhode Island School of Design where he received his BFA. Zach went on to earn his MFA from the New York Academy of Art. After school Zach was awarded the Eric Fischl residency where he continued to develop his studio practice. He currently lives and works in Pittsburgh where he runs The School House art space.

Brown’s paintings combine traditional techniques and materials with formal design. The work combines the illusion of representational painting against the reality of the material and the painting as an object. This duality is also seen in the mixing of contemporary and ancient subject matter found in his work. The visual themes focus on the subjects of history, myth, and mortality.

Zach actively exhibits throughout the United States having his work covered by Artnet News and Hi-Fructose. His work has been added to the Seavest Group Collection and The Iliana Goor Museum in Tel Aviv as well as being a permanent feature of the Satanic Temple of Salem.

Justus Cotterill was born in Okinawa, Japan and raised in Erie, PA. He has a BFA in photography from The Cleveland Institute of Art and an MFA in printmaking from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania. He has shown in various galleries and museums both regionally and nationally.

Cotterill’s paintings walk a line between abstraction and narration. There are hints of things viewers might think they have seen before or color combinations that feel familiar but can’t place. Maybe people pick up on these subtleties in the work, maybe they don’t – the artist doesn’t think it’s critical either way. He tries to speak in a broader language but likes having these little bits that maybe only those who “know” will recognize.

Like many, Cotterill has been heavily influenced by the records he’s listened to growing up, which identified who you were in social circles and it could influence experiences, a way of dressing, even how Saturday nights were spent. He was a kid growing up in middle class neighborhoods, watching John Hughes movies and wishing there was better music on MTV.

Living in Erie, the television and the record player were how he saw and felt the rest of the world. California and New York were other planets – his “influencers” were the posters in his room.

Val started painting in the mid-1960s and first exhibited in 1968. Works in oil on canvas predominate among his paintings although he has worked in acrylic and continues to work on paper. His body of work includes individual, non-commissioned paintings as well as space-specific commissions.

His craft developed through studio experience. In 1972 he joined the Taliesin Fellowship where he continued creative work in the visual arts and as harpsichordist in addition to fulfilling administrative responsibilities. In 1984 he resumed independent full-time painting and sculpture.

Since the early 1980s Cox has worked on a continuing series in oil on canvas, form/unformed. He describes these works as "multi-planar, a synthesis of painting and sculpture in which the surfaces of paintings are contoured and shaped, sometimes composed of multiple panels to form a single canvas." Cox says the series developed from his desire to find forms that "participate in the space of their environment. They impinge on surrounding space and encourage the viewer to move in space. As with sculpture, no single vantage point reveals the entire painting. People have to move to see everything. Since the series uses space as a medium I describe the media as oil/canvas/space."

ARTIST'S STATEMENT
"Paintings, for me, are conduits of abstract information," Cox comments. "Documents from which viewers can receive according to individual temperament and need. They're neither 'pictures' of anything nor do they contain subject matter nor are they personal statements. They are what you see--color and form."

Scott’s work is rooted in tradition, drawn from life and constructed with imagination. It is about the arrangement of images, textures, colors and shapes. Working in both a representational and non-representational manner while struggling with the need to merge figuration with a love of abstract expressionism, he produces two distinct bodies of work. Both tend to evoke a specific place or memory. The construction of each resonates with emotional presence.

Scott hopes that each new painting or collage is a step forward. When successful, one piece will inform the next and allow it to become something entirely new.

Todd Keyser is an abstract painter and an arts writer. Todd’s paintings have always been deeply connected to the sense of not belonging anywhere specifically that is a place, but wanting to construct a specific place - one that is usually metropolitan in feeling, the memory of an interior or exterior structure or space. It’s paradoxical that the work is specific, yet the subjective experience of its making or creation is one that is rooted in a very flexible and expansive recall of objects, spaces, places – an amalgamation of experiences.

Rob Long is a professional artist and Principal of Clear Story, a Pittsburgh-based design and consulting firm he founded in 2007. Rob’s creative practice bridges the disciplines of architecture, theatre and fine art—working with light and technology to create dynamic and memorable experiences. His photographs are held in private and institutional collections.

Rob’s abstract photography practice exists at the intersection of his work as an artist and architectural lighting designer. Observing light in the public realm, exploring movement and timing, gesture and line, color and form—he situates himself in spaces that feel sacred and quiet, where the light is layered and the contours of the landscape pronounced. Seeking compositions of surfaces, reflections, points of light, and using in-camera techniques to manipulate light and elements of the scene, the images in this body of work are alchemic experiments of chance and intentionality, rooted in a clear vision of possibility.

Inspired by places traveled, and by others yet to be explored, Michael Lotenero balances identity, place and memory through constructed relics from unrealized civilizations. Other ghosts linger from the past, while some visit from the future through paintings and mixed media.

Lotenero conjures apparitions in found photos of turn-of-the-century New York, and in images he's taken in Rome, Pompeii, and Florence. Or, he might bury an entirely finished, sometimes colorful painting, under a new layer of white and line – bewitching the viewer to sense something underneath, adding hidden meaning and weight.

Nate’s current body of work Is an exploration into visual and tactile patterns. His artwork exists In its current form as both sculpture and abstract painting executed on reclaimed natural wood slabs, drawing inspiration from the often overlooked beauty of patterns in both natural and manmade experience. He desires to create objects that give the viewer some sense of the awe found in viewing a brilliantly colored patch or lichen, stones on a riverbank, or a crack in a sidewalk.

Carin Mincemoyer’s work ponders the ways in which humans try to embrace, struggle to control, yearn for, reject, and alter the natural environment. Her creative practice encompasses sculpture, installation, public art and design in diverse materials including wood, metal, discarded packaging, and live plants. Mining the visual evidence of humans' efforts to contend with the seeming chaos of nature, she employs the engineered forms of scaffolding and bridges, the image of the underappreciated dandelion, a weather icon meant as shorthand for the complexity of a thunderstorm. These works offer opportunities for heightened perception of our daily predicament, our constant navigation between civilization and wildness.

Carin’s work has been recognized with grants and awards from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, the International Sculpture Center and the PA Council on the Arts. She has been awarded public commissions in Pittsburgh, NYC, and Philadelphia, and her work has been exhibited at venues including the Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh, PA, Grounds for Sculpture in Hamilton, NY, and SPACES in Cleveland, OH.

Josh Mitchel is a Pittsburgh-based artist and educator. Through his work he explores various intrinsic psychological conflicts, stemming from interest in Freud’s theoretical construct of Ego and Id. Specifically, Josh is interested in the contrast between rational thoughts and irrational, impulse-driven behavior. Unique to each individual and in varying degrees, he believes this vacillating struggle to be part of the human experience. His paintings are in part autobiographical, but the use of the figure is intended to be universal as he addresses a tension that is ubiquitous.

The way cinematography can define the tone of a film, Josh's formal decisions work in service to conceptual underpinnings. He places heavy emphasis on form and space, and use the figure to create an enigmatic narrative. Anatomy is paramount in Josh's compositions – while often fractured, repeated, or disjunctive, his figures maintain a certain truth and plausibility. The models are often right up against the picture plane, forcefully occupying the space between the subject and the audience. Aggressive mark making, sweeping diagonals, and areas of high contrast set the stage for a theatrical opus.

Kathleen Mulcahy's glass drop installations incorporate bent and etched plate glass on patinaed or textured steel. As an avid kayaker, she experienced a moment that changed the direction of her art. A storm came upon the river suddenly. In its wake it left her with a moment of pure joy, of wonder, that she works to recreate in her drop installations. Her inspiration, drawn from the natural world – water and rivers, often titled after excerpts from poems exploring the boundaries and freedoms that affect relationships; people to people and people to nature. Nature is the reflection point of her work. Kathleen pushes the limits of the medium, merging sculpture with craft to create masterful works in glass and metal.

Mulcahy received a Masters of Fine Arts in glass sculpture and three-dimensional design from Alfred University. Afterwards, she directed glass studio programs at Bowling Green State University in Ohio and Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh then went on to develop the Pittsburgh Glass Center, one of the premier public access glass studios in the nation. During this time, her own work – installation pieces, cast glass, and blown glass objects – evolved into unique and poignant statements. Kathleen received Fellowship Awards from the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust, the National Endowment for the Arts. the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, The Creative Glass Center of America. She received The Lusk Memorial Award through the Fulbright Foundation, The Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation. In 1992, she was named Artist of the Year by the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts and Pennsylvania Artist of the Year by Governor Corbett in 2013. Her works are in many public and private collections including the American Craft Museum, The Corning Museum of Glass, The Carnegie Museum of Art, The Renwick Galleries of the Smithsonian Institution and The Westmoreland Museum of Art. In 1997, she was selected as Fellow of and Artist in Residence at the Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris. 

Mulcahy positions herself as an intentionalist – a word she coined to describe someone who uses art and the making of art to transform communities. Drawing on individuals of different backgrounds and ethnicities, the community comes together to make and appreciate expression and skill in a unique and challenging material.

Karl Mullen, born in Dublin, Ireland, lives and works in the Berkshire Mountains. He has developed his own non-traditional approach to art making and materials, utilizing walnut oil, raw powder pigment and a wax medium that coalesce into color-saturated, luminous images.

Painting largely with his hands, Karl creates distinctive, poetic figures that float on fields of color. The imagery in his paintings is born out of Irish mythology, family and dreams.

Mullen's paintings reside in many private collections, and are shown in galleries throughout America and Europe, as well as in the annual Outsider Art Fair in New York. Like Dubuffet's art brut, of which "outsider art" is the English approximation, Mullen's paintings privilege the raw over the cooked, spontaneous process over studied composition, the iconic over the naturalistic, the primitive over the polished.

His work was also showcased in the PBS syndicated TV series Rare Visions & Roadside Revelations and are included frequently in art/design magazines such as Home Accents and Elle Decor.

Hans Neleman (b. 1960) is a Dutch-born interdisciplinary artist based in New Canaan, CT whose practice includes collage, painting, photography, and video. Neleman creates lyrical dreamscapes where heads appear to emerge from their abstract backgrounds. Myths and modern tales merge. Making one wonder what occupies the ‘headspace’ within the imagery, how this stirs emotions and perceptions within our own imagination and if or why new meaning is created. This enthralling amalgamation of both realist and abstract heads provides a space for stories about transformed identities that move to a surrealist beat mixed with sensual and even romantic harmonies.

Linda Price-Sneddon’s work is born of the land and its forms, macro and micro. Her process is both scientific and intuitive, often utilizing an underlying set of rules to initiate a work but with final resolution both intuitive and emergent from the physical properties of the material.

Early training at the Lyme Academy of Fine Art imparted a strong classical foundation and in particular, pleine aire landscape painting in all conditions including inclement weather. Extensive color training inspired my usage of vibratory color relationships in an exploration of the physics of human perception and color as energy. Training at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts Boston provided immersion in contemporary methods and practice.

Her paintings and installations have been shown widely in New England and the Pittsburgh area. She’s held artist residencies at numerous New England schools and institutions including MASS MoCA’s Kidspace and The Fuller Craft Museum and received grants in support of her work from the Greater Pittsburgh Artist Council, Massachusetts Cultural Council, Berkshire Taconic A.R.T. Fund,Target Foundation and Citibank.

Recent projects include the video installation S.H.E. Emergent at the Boston Center for The Arts “Feminist Futurist” exhibition and the exhibition Hearts So Full at Zynka Gallery in 2020, stage set design for the Pittsburgh New Music Ensemble’s at City Theatre in Pittsburgh in 2018 and an exhibition of works on paper at Chautauqua Institution Strohl Gallery in 2017.

Patrick Ruane is an Artist living and working primarily in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with a Summer Studio on the banks of the Muskingum River in Southeastern Ohio.

Ruane was born in 1960 and raised in the eastern suburbs of Pittsburgh a few miles from the Allegheny River Valley, a river valley that proved to have an overarching influence on his work. Formally trained at Indiana University of Pennsylvania, the Artist is broadly inspired by time spent outdoors, and more specifically by the rivers, woods and fields of Appalachia, or from more distant landscapes that the Artist has visited with easel and paint in tow.

The style of the work ranges from highly realistic to more atmospheric, suggestive and minimal. The work has a calm, meditative, sometimes melancholy quality. A strong sense of place as well as sunlight permeates the paintings.

Patrick Ruane has staged over 25 solo exhibitions – most recently “Painting Summer 2024” at The U.S. Post Office and Courthouse, in Pittsburgh, PA. Highlights of the last decade include shows at The Westmorland Museum of American Art, Wittenberg University, and The Pennsylvania Governor’s Residence. His work is in private and corporate collections nationally and internationally.

John Burt Sanders is an artist from Arcade, New York. He completed his MFA in painting and drawing at Ohio University in 2011 and earned a BFA in painting and art history at State University of New York at Fredonia in 2007. Sanders has been awarded an Artist Opportunity Grant from the Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council in 2014. In 2014 he participated in an artist residency at the Vermont Studio Center in Johnson, Vermont. In 2019, his work appeared in the Northeast edition of New American Paintings, issue # 140.  Sanders currently lives and works in Pittsburgh, Pa.

John’s paintings tend toward formal abstraction and focus on simple formal visual elements (color, texture, composition). They vary in degrees of visible subtlety and overload. For example, while one may seem to only show slight shifts in color variation, another is dominated by high contrast colors that are dizzying to view for a duration. His intention is to produce work that engages the viewer in the act of looking while emphasizing that looking is an active process that can be felt (physically, mentally and emotionally). To that end, his paintings do not produce any immediate recognizable imagery but instead present the viewer with an image suggestive of many images. John believes this potential for many readings is crucial for creating new meanings and highlighting existing connections.

Jonathan Shapiro is a self-taught sculptor who incorporates natural materials along with found objects into his work. Growing up in New York, Jonathan was drawn to taking things apart and putting them back together in ways that were more useful, more meaningful, or just more interesting to him. He feels that his art has taken this inclination to new levels of expression.

Through his art, Jonathan attempts to gain a better understanding of himself and the world we live in. In a society where so much is processed, he is constantly searching for things that are real. His sculptures are visual, tactile tools that serve almost as guideposts, enabling him to discover and keep in touch with how he is feeling and reacting to the dynamic environment.

Brenda Stumpf (American, b.1972) is a contemporary sculptor and painter. Stumpf began exhibiting her work during the mid 1990s upon leaving art school and has been recognized for her intricate use of unorthodox materials— the paper of steeped tea bags, unraveled rope, sand, plastic flowers, animal bones, salvaged wood, and scraped wallpaper — to create sculptures and assembled paintings that have a baroque sensibility layered atop evocative subject matter. Mythology, mysticism, ancient history and poetry are deep wells for Stumpf’s ceaseless intrigue into the mysterious, secretive, and unknown. When dismantling and then reconstructing with the found and discarded materials, Stumpf does so with an almost shamanistic approach — a potent act akin to the cycle of death and rebirth.

Stumpf’s paintings, sculpture, and works on paper have been exhibited in 26 solo and 122 group exhibitions that include the Butler Institute of American Art, the Littleton Museum, Denver Community Museum, Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art, Foothills Art Center, Paris Gibson Square Museum of Art, and this summer, The Westmoreland Museum of American Art. The artist’s work has been juried into numerous exhibits by the likes of Jerry Saltz, senior art critic and columnist for New York magazine, Christoph Heinrich, Director of the Denver Art Museum, Jamie Sterns, writer and the curatorial director of Brooklyn’s Interstate Projects, and Taras Malta, Associate Director and current Acting Director of the University of Maryland Art Gallery.

Designers, architects, institutions, and private clients have commissioned Stumpf to create signature works and currently her art resides in over 350 collections throughout the United States and abroad. Originally from Parma, OH the artist currently lives and works in Pittsburgh, PA.

Jack Taylor is an artist and educator hailing from Seattle, Washington. Jack earned his BFA with an emphasis on painting, printmaking, photography, and drawing from Carnegie Mellon University in 2018. His practice deals with the changing landscape of the pacific northwest and how it ties into personal history, Americana, and notions of labour and industry at large.

Stephen's current projects are continuing an idea re-contextualizing imagery with an even more intense visual stimulation with the use of heightened color and even larger formats that will help push the boundaries of water-based media. 

His artwork also deals with distressed figures/bodies from media images of executions, historical tragedies and medical imaging. The main focus of these works are on the bodies’ gestures and the stories they tell through our greater connection with imagery.
