DESTINATION: GREECE
The large well-lit gallery of the Lawrence Arts Center became the perfect venue for a recent exceptional exhibition. In some exhibitions, paintings may relate to each other but collectively say nothing — or say the same thing over and over. This exhibition has cohesion. The paintings relate well to each other, and each one is unique. In order to pull together this incredible group of paintings, Margo Kren used two themes from her trip to Greece: Christian-inspired chapel boxes and ancient Greek mythology.

OF PATTERNED COLOR AND LIGHT
The work of Leo Villareal is transformational. The artist alters harsh electronic lights into soft, spellbinding luminosities, computer code into organic forms, and pulses of electricity into exhilarating environments. The first major museum survey of his work from the past decade (an exhibition originating at the San Jose Museum of Art) is on view at the Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art through September 18.
