Traver Gallery, Seattle, WA Videos

We are delighted to offer you a glimpse into Jane Rosen's studio and her latest work featured in the exhibition "A Dog's Life," currently on view in the gallery. Nestled in the tranquil landscape of San Gregorio, CA, far removed from the city's bustling pace, Jane draws inspiration from the beauty of nature. Using glass, stone, and pigments, she skillfully sculpts her materials, akin to a painter crafting a canvas. This tactile approach allows her to reveal the inner essence of her subjects. Her sculptures embody an essential character, subtlety, and beauty, creating a personal and poetic link between the realms of animals and humans. Through her work, she grants us access to the feeling of potency and encourages us to quietly observe and protect our vital connection to the natural world. We invite you to come and experience "A Dog's Life." This exhibition runs through December 2. 🍃🐾

♥️🧡Come see “Monochromatic Cuboid” by Jiyong Lee at the Traver Gallery! The work will only be up for two more weeks as part of his solo exhibition titled “Invisible Mocrocosm.” It definitely needs to be seen in person. See you soon! #travergallery #seattlegallery #jiyonglee

Join us Thursday, June 1 from 5-8pm to celebrate the opening of “A Pillar Of Salt; A Glance Back” by Lauren Grossman. We couldn't be more proud to welcome Lauren Grossman back to Traver Gallery with this important and timely exhibition, Pillar of Salt; A Glance Back. For Lauren Grossman, materials and meaning are inextricable. One informs the other and vice versa. So with language and form, and present and past. This symbiosis makes Lauren's artwork hard to parse out as there is never a single point of view. Instead, she layers meaning upon meaning, playing with symbolism and metaphors like a poet. Her imagery and narratives engage a dialog about a - somehow - universal feeling of religiosity and an urge to make these odd, arcane biblical stories relevant to our modern life. At the same time, her well-worn industrial materials convey a sense of history and a reworking of old sources in the light of the present moment. Lauren engages us in an ambiguous and rich dialog with her sculptures. Their awkward, uncertain beauty conveys earnest attention to material, meaning, and her consistent endeavors to find contemporary poignancy in the oddness and curious beauty of old conventions.

Optic Crosscut by John Kiley Johm Kiley uses primary geometric forms as the architecture for his glass sculptures. In his spherical forms, juxtaposed colors and carved optic passageways create a separation of space, allowing the viewer to peer into and through the form. Often his sculptures are balanced on edge seeming to defy gravity.
