In his paintings, Tom Gilbertson creates a visual imbalance between the central floral image and the industrial overlays.
The Capital City Arts Initiative’s exhibition, “Recent Works” presents work by Gilbertson at the Courthouse Gallery through Sept. 26.
CCAI will host a reception for the artist on Wednesday from 5-6:30 p.m. with the artist’s introduction at 5:30 p.m. The courthouse is located at 885 E. Musser St. The gallery is open Monday-Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Gilbertson earned a Master of Fine Arts at UNLV and a Bachelor of Fine Arts and master’s degree at San José State University. Chris Lanier wrote the exhibition essay, which is available as a gallery hand-out and archived at www.ccianv.org.
