Opening Friday, Sept. 15 and running through Saturday, Oct. 21 is Frank Campion – dichotomies. The show includes works on both canvas and paper.  About this show, the artist says, "The dictionary defines ‘dichotomy’ as ‘a division into two mutually exclusive, opposed, or contradictory groups – a dichotomy between thought and action.’ It occurs to me that we tend to be naturally judgmental, making the world a binary proposition: good/bad, yes/no, on/off, right/wrong, hot/cold, rough/smooth, etc. So, this new work is about dichotomies.”

Campion, who works out of his studio near Winston-Salem, was featured in Liza Roberts' 2022 book The Art of the State, celebrating artists who are contributing to the North Carolina's growing reputation in visual arts. He says, "As abstract as it may initially appear, my work is essentially derived from the tradition of landscape painting. the issues of space and atmosphere seem always to be with me as are the more formal issues about what constitutes an authentic painting – proportion, form, color, composition, and surface."

The opening reception is set for Friday, Sept. 15 from 5 - 7 p.m. This is an ideal opportunity for artists, students, and collectors to meet and speak with a forceful voice in North Carolina arts.
