Item #4: Eliot Goss: New Works on Display
Eliot Goss is an architect; he’s also an accomplished painter. Goss, a familiar presence at the National Museum of Wildlife Art and Ciao Gallery, has new works up around town.
The Wine Loft at The Liquor Store, adjacent to Albertson’s, now has an exhibition of Goss’ exceptional landscapes; they remain on display through July.
And, two miles north of town at NMWA’s Rising Sage Cafe, more works are on display; these will remain up through summer. Goss has an excellent, easy-to-navigate website.
Goss paints with an eye to the Arts and Crafts movement; there’s a certain structural organic touch; a simple power.
Another Goss venue: Galleries West Fine Art’s Body and Soul exhibition, opening at that gallery August 20.
