Fine folding

Work by Peter Monaghan in his show “Peter Monaghan: Fold,’’ at Heather Gaudio Fine Art, New Canaan, Conn., Nov. 21-Jan. 9. He uses his folds as sculptures to evoke emotion and energy through color. Not surprisingly, he’s a former graphic designer.

"Ninth Avenue Quartet IV'' (oil on canvas), by Melissa Mayer,  in her show "Melissa Meyer: Hitting the Right Notes,'' at Heather Guadio Fine Art, New Canaan, Conn., May 12-June 23.

The gallery says:

"Meyer's abstract paintings have a signature calligraphy and rhythmic curvilinear vernacular that are more complex than they initially seem.  Like a good bottle of wine, her works open up when allowed to breathe and the more one looks, the more notes are savored.   Her lengthy career stands as a testament to her authenticity, with forty-plus solo exhibitions, commissions, teaching and artist-in-residence positions here and abroad.
