Save the Date: Nines Exhibition
The Nines Gallery presents “Modernscapes—Near the Edge” to begin its 11th Season of Fine Art in Holland.
On Friday, September 26th, The Nines Gallery will host an art opening to celebrate the new works of Michael Pfleghaar. In addition to Pfleghaar’s traditional subject matter of modern interior scenes and still life, his new collection of paintings and drawings will showcase a collection of work depicting modern architecture inspired by visits to Palm Springs, California and other modern architectural masterpieces. This will be Michael Pfleghaar’s only gallery show in West Michigan in 2008. The Artist’s Reception will be held from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm and is open to art collectors and the public. Admission is free of charge. The Nines Gallery is located inside 17 West 10th Street, in Downtown Holland. “Modernscapes—Near the Edge” will be showing at The Nines Gallery through October 2008.
Michael Pfleghaar has also been painting the Michigan landscape while traveling through the state to visit friends and vacationing. These landscapes and interiors celebrate the vibrant colors, unique buildings, and man-made paths we make through nature. Pfleghaar also works in terra cotta clay and last year one of his creations was awarded Best in Show for a the statewide Fire and Mud Clay Competition and his work was recently featured in American Craft Magazine. Pfleghaar received a BFA in Painting from Grand Valley State University in 1988 and exhibits throughout Michigan and in Palm Springs, California. He will be teaching a weekend landscape class at OxBow this fall.
