David Sovero

Churton Street Realty Gallery features works by David Sovero at 121 North Churton Street, Suite 1-C.  David trained at the Peruvian National Arts College.  He is an artist who is like a fountain of rich color, offering us new forms, concepts and elements of art, over many generations.  David's Incan ancestral roots were saturated with a thousand years of Andean stylized figures.  His everyday existence and relationships are intimately tied to his work, with shadowy semi-abstract specters emerging from the darkness of the canvas.  His surreal compositions and simplistic geometric forms are based in lines, texture and dimension, giving freedom to his talent and creativity.  David is also a musician and a jeweler.  The show runs from June 27 through July 24.  Opening reception on June 27 from 6 – 9 pm.

Chrystal Hardt

Churton Street Realty Gallery features paintings by Chrystal Hardt at 121 North Churton Street, Suite 1-C.  "My paintings have many inspirations, primarily figurative in nature.  The bond and connectedness formed among family members and those formed by women are my current focus.  Women are the glue that holds things together.  Expressions of closeness, especially those from an era prior to the modern period, interest me.  Some of my work also deals with our relationship to the world as a whole and explores the connection between women and the world in particular.  Although I have painted in a variety of media, currently I am working primarily in acrylics.  I primarily studied painting, drawing and sculpture at UNC-G.  I studied the figure with Paul Cong Yuan.  In addition to my own art, I am the co-owner of Milton Studio Art Gallery in Milton, NC.”  The show runs from May 30 through June 26.  Opening reception on May 30 from 6 – 9 pm.
