Photography Art Auction
The Pastoral Counseling Centers of Tennessee (PCCT) and Gallery One are hosting a juried photography art show and auction, “InSight at Gallery One,” to raise awareness and support the Centers’ mission. Held June 21, 2013 from 6 pm – 8 pm at the gallery’s Belle Meade location, “InSight” displays finalists chosen by respected independent curator and photography expert Elizabeth Avedon, prominent photography collectors Billy and Jennifer Frist, and acclaimed Nashville photographer Jerry Atnip, who is also the featured artist for the event. In addition, there will be a live auction consisting of selected works by Jerry Atnip, Jack Spencer, Raeanne Rubenstein, Jennifer Glass, Norman Lerner, and Dorothy O’Connor. Gallery One will also donate 10% of non-auction sales from the event to the PCCT.” All proceeds from the auction will go directly to care for individuals, couples, and families in Middle Tennessee who could not otherwise afford quality counseling services.

TREASURE: Twenty-One paintings and a Key
Welcome to this exciting scavenger hunt/riddle and the chance to win Joy Spills Over, hosted by Gallery One and Atlanta artist Maggie Hasbrouck. This book, TREASURE: Twenty-one paintings and a Key, was published by Hasbrouck as an alternative to traditional show catalogues. She wanted to inspire readers and her collectors to really spend time looking at the work.
Hasbrouck’s publication features twenty-one of her paintings in this sophisticated picture book that weaves together nine numbers, one word, and three essential clues that will lead you to unlock the mystery and win Joy Spills Over, which hangs inside a 54”x38” painted wooden frame. Built into the frame is a locked compartment; the first person to unlock it will lay claim to the painting. Everything needed to crack the code that opens the lock is in this book. The correct solution will be comprised of ONE WORD (that will gain you permission to try the lock) and a string of NINE single digit NUMBERS that will open the lock.
The books can be purchased online through Amazon or Lulu, and will be available on July 1 for sale in Nashville at Gallery One for a cost of $22.50. Starting July 15th, books will also be given away via scavenger hunts. Books will be placed in random spots throughout the city and clues will be tweeted out about their location by Gallery One and Nashville Arts Magazine, the official media sponsor for the contest.
The painting will be given away on Saturday September 7th from 6 p.m - 9 p.m., during the show Treasure at Gallery One to launch Hasbrouck’s new collection of works. If the riddle remains unsolved in August, Hasbrouck will be releasing a series of increasingly specific hints that will all but guarantee a winner by the show date. Someone WILL take Joy Spills Over home that night.

Sebastian Picker
In his first U.S. appearance in five years, South American artist Sebastian Picker unveils new works at his solo show, “An Examination of Dystopia,” opening March 2nd at Gallery One. As a critical evaluation of power, pomposity, and folly within government, church, and business, Picker’s work balances sarcasm with humor, and the darkness of corruption with a brilliant palette that distills image into the essence of human feelings.

Nashville native K.J Schumacher combines mark making and remnants from the studio process to create a duality between intention and accident. Carefully prepared grounds and chalk lines create a structured matrix on which the studio remnants assert themselves. As subsequent layers interact, this duality creates new arrangements, tensions, and harmonies. Click here to see the recent article in Nashville Arts Magazine starting on page 51.
