Triangle Gallery will feature three shows during Rockland's ArtWalk on July 11: Susan Groce and Land(e)scapes, Jessica Straus and Homesick, and a group show of TG artists.

Susan Groce's Land(e)scapes is a selection of large drawings spanning a number of years til present, will be on exhibit in the back gallery. This work displays both the continuity and shift of her visual language. Groce work(s) “to create fragile environments that are ephemeral and elusive, as though glimpsed on the very edge of visibility”. This exhibition will be on view until July 20.

Black humor, longing and regret are at play in Jessica Straus’s exhibition “Homesick”. With a sense of irony, Straus depicts Earth as a resource-hungry planet wandering the universe, unable to recognize and protect its most fragile and precious natural resources. Straus takes the journey even further, to a future when humans must flee a devastated Earth to settle on far-flung, arid worlds. Her masterfully carved figures are stand-ins for everyman and everywoman who gaze longingly earthward from the moon, Mars and the starfields. Straus makes us wonder if we must arrive at the “End Times” to get ourselves to focus on the most critical of human issues, the survival of our habitable planet.

The main gallery downstairs will reflect a season-long, ever-changing, exhibition of work by gallery artists. July’s show includes work by Anne-Marie Nolin, Ed Nadeau, Doreen Nardone, Jamie Johnston, Linda Packard, Abbie Read, Cynthia Selinger, Judith Daniels, Carter Wentworth, Marc Leavitt, George Pearlman, Karen Jelenfy, Carbery Morrow, Garry Mitchell, Kingsley Parker, and Talya Baharal. This collection will be up through July 27.
