KAREN DOSHAY: COLOR PLAY
Opening Reception
February 7, 2026, 5-8 pm
Exhibition Dates
February 7-20, 2026
Admission
Free and open to the public
Join us for the Opening Reception of Color Play—a solo exhibition of abstract expressionist paintings by Karen Doshay. Enjoy wine, champagne, hors d’oeuvres, and live music.
Living and working between Jackson Hole and San Diego, Doshay creates work driven by the emotional force of color and the dynamic relationships that emerge when hue, form, and gesture collide. Deeply inspired by the landscapes surrounding the Teton Mountains, Doshay responds to the region’s vast skies, shifting light, and constant change. These natural rhythms inform her approach, encouraging experimentation, fresh color combinations, and processes that feel alive and in motion. Doshay’s process is immersive and physical, often unfolding on large-scale canvases accompanied by loud music, where rhythm weaves itself into each motion and mark.
Color Play marks a moment in Doshay’s ongoing exploration of abstract expressionism—celebrating curiosity, joy, and the freedom to create in the present moment.

FRACTURED FORMS
Exhibition Dates: November 22, 2025 - January 10, 2026
Explore Fractured Forms, a national exhibition showcasing 2-D and 3-D works by artists who use fragmentation, contrast, and reconstruction to investigate life, structure, and the human experience.
The works on view play with ambiguity in architecture, human design, and the figure. Each piece asks viewers to look closer and discover how incomplete or fractured forms can open up new ways of seeing and understanding.
Meet the artists and mingle with collectors and art lovers inside the gallery—then step out onto the balcony for a moonlit cocktail. Expect an evening full of art, conversation, and connection.
