Q&A with Thomas Gleaner
Thomas Gleaner, artist, curator and cultural leader, has been collaborating with SOCO Gallery since its inception. A longtime resident of Charlotte and active participant in the city's arts and cultural community, Thomas curated Kindred: Photographers Focus on Family at SOCO Gallery in 2016. The exhibition brought together artists, including Linda Foard Roberts, Sally Mann and Carolyn DeMeritt, who examined life-affirming roles through the medium of fine art photography. His solo exhibition at SOCO in 2018 explored the intersection between language and visual communication in a series of mixed media paintings and sculptures that interrogated the power and limitations of the written word.
The artist's new paintings exhibited on Four x Five represent the inherent vulnerability of language that is susceptible to spin, manipulation, obfuscation, and misinterpretation. Thomas gathers lists of idioms, aphorisms, proverbs, or sage advice from literature, philosophy, religion, and his own writings. Select quotes are transcribed in layers onto prepared canvases in an intuitive, entangled manner so as to undermine any meaning or value the wise refrains may have to offer

Catherine Anspon, executive editor of PaperCity Magazine, in conversation with contemporary art curator Christine Starkman. When the poet laureate Louise Gluck wrote "Whatever returns from oblivion returns to find a voice" in the poem Wild Iris, the text, perhaps, reflects an artist's voice and process of visualizing and materializing ideas to dimensional spaces. Starkman discusses her selection of ten artworks as seen through the lens of Gluck’s poem, touching on artworks by Alex Katz, Theresa Chong, David Aylsworth, Julian Opie, and more.

Mara Held Studio Tour
Mara Held Studio Tour, Summer 2020
Mara Held is known for energetic yet delicate paintings on linen and paper depicting lyrical organic forms in vibrant colors. She uses intricately cut stencils for some patterns that evoke varied sources from plant life growing on ancient forest floors or pelagic forms found in coral reefs to Japanese woodcuts and Psychedelic posters. Held’s preferred medium is egg tempera, a painstaking technique mastered by Renaissance painters. Carter Foster, deputy director of the Blanton Museum, explains “It’s not a medium where you can sling the paint around. You can see the precision of Mara’s work even though the forms are not hard edged.”

His sculptures are Third World replicas of the sophisticated capsules and satellites developed by NASA and the Soviet Space Program during the 'Space Race', however, they are assembled with found materials, they include transmutable elements, colored lights and live plants. The series titled Tropical Space Proyectos comments on the effects of the Cold War in contemporary El Salvador and Central America. In other works the artist parodies Mayan pyramids, Modernism's iconic buildings and contemporary surveillance systems, creating an ironic and humorous fusion between first and third worlds.
