Jay Noble: Paintings
January 5 – February 11
Grounded in observation, Jay Noble’s large-scale oil paintings of landscapes document his ongoing search for reality and spirit. Noble describes himself as a naïve painter, motivated by his belief that things are not what they seem. Noble studied at the New York Studio School and the Chautauqua School of Art, New York. He received a B.A. in fine arts studio at Anderson University in Indiana, and an M.F.A. in painting at the American University in Washington, D.C. He has been in several solo and group exhibitions, and his work is in a number of private and public collections. He is currently assistant professor of art at Hollins.

Gillian Pederson-Krag: Paintings and Etchings
February 16 – March 31
Gillian Pederson-Krag is the Hollins University 2004 Frances Niederer Artist-in-Residence. She is considered “a painter’s painter” because of her lush sense of color and the quiet sense of brooding that permeates her imagery. Her paintings and prints have a poetic quality that requires the viewer to slow down and muse on the connections between physical forms and their suggested meanings. Pederson-Krag received a B.F.A. from the Rhode Island School of Design in Providence, and an M.F.A. from Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. Her prints and paintings are included in the permanent collections of the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco; the Mint Museum of Art in Charlotte; and the Library of Congress Print Collection, among others.

Amy Yoes: Paintings and Installation
April 5 – May 24
Painter Amy Yoes explores traditional ornamental elements to create flowing works that evoke a sense of visual music. Weaving a vocabulary of decorative motifs into installations, she produces an effect that is both harmonious and chaotic. Yoes earned a B.F.A. from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her work has been exhibited at the Museu de Arte Contemporanea in Medera, Portugal; II International Sculpture Symposium in Santo Tirso, Portugal; and the Cranbrook Art Museum in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. Her numerous awards include a Pollack-Krasner Foundation Grant, an NYFA/New York Foundation for the Arts Award, and MacDowell and Yaddo residencies.
