Myth Making
Myths and myth making are at the crux of this collaborative exhibition between three
artists with a unique connection. Working with imagery steeped in symbolism and metaphor,
Vought, VandeMark, and Weis are either referencing myths and fables or creating new
ones.
Stylistically their paintings contain a sense of the surreal where unnatural pairings
between plants and animals occur, where animals are comingling in ways not found in
nature, or where dream-like imagery sets the stage for referencing the world around
us with the intention of sharing stories that reflect upon life, love, and the nature
of all things

Nature & Art in Michigan
Gwen Frostic (1906 - 2001) is one of Michigan’s most successful artists and businesswomen.
Her hand carved block prints illuminate nature, depicting the landscapes and the native
flora and fauna of Michigan. Frostic founded her own printmaking business in Benzonia,
Michigan, which continues to produce work using her original printing blocks. Colorful
prints, stationery, and books written and illustrated by Frostic form the core of
this exhibition. This show celebrates Gwen Frostic’s love of nature and situates
her pioneering work within the larger history of women artists.
