In paintings and prints, Deborah Oropallo has forged inventive bodies of work which engage and challenge the viewer in reading the form and content. Fracturing or merging images, Oropallo renders relationships of power and position which point to societal norms and subtexts.
$10 general admission, free for BAC members and students.
RSVPs are strongly encouraged by calling 510.644.6893 or e-mail annw@berkeleyartcenter.org
For more than 50 years, Stephen De Staebler (1933–2011) created figurative sculptures primarily from clay—a medium derived from the primordial earth. Drawing inspiration from fundamental childhood experiences with nature, a transformative adolescent encounter with mortality, and adult studies in the histories of art and religion, he explored and extended a tradition of human representation that includes the religious monuments of ancient Egypt, the Renaissance humanism of Michelangelo’s finished and unfinished figures, and the modern existentialism expressed in the works of Alberto Giacometti. Matter + Spirit, installed in the American art galleries, includes 55 of De Staebler’s works.
On Saturday evening, Squeak will be in New Orleans where a group show with three of her paintings will open at Arthur Roger Gallery.

The opening is this Saturday, January 7, 2012, from 6:00 to 8:00pm. The show will remain on view until February 18, 2012.
