Martha Bird: Sales Are a Good Thing Martha Bird’s sold piece, Then to Now, just shipped to the art consultant today. SCORE! You never know exactly where sales will come from. Martha’s show with Susan Hensel Gallery, Body Work, ended in mid January. No sales during the show period. But four months later… But one of the beauties of online exhibitions is that the work can remain available after the exhibition if you have made that agreement with your gallery. That was the case for Martha Bird. As a gallerist and artist, I want to give my represented artists the maximum flexibility possible because, from my experience it can take a long time for buyers to pull-the-trigger on a purchase…like YEARS!

Ingrid Restemayer returns to Susan Hensel Gallery for the second time with a new fiber art series titled Talk to Me. These pieces continue the strong compositions and driving aesthetic focus of the artist’s oeuvre, developing the threads she has woven so far while introducing a new set of idioms. Using handmade paper, printmaking and embroidery, Restemayer gives us a quiet, contemplative view of the ways humanity communicates with itself. The works combine colored paper as a background to etchings of animals, with embroidery that stitches the work together and adds textural elements on its own. […]

NAVIGATING NEW WATERS Now Open in Susan Hensel Gallery by KATE VINSON “Navigating New Waters” by Textile Artist Kate Vinson in the windows at Susan Hensel Gallery. I have known Kate Vinson for a number of years now. I first met her when she received the Jerome Foundation Project Grant for Textile Art in roughly 2015. There was a reception for past and present Jerome artists led by the new director of the Textile Center of Minnesota. I met some truly wonderful artists there, who remain important to me today! Kate is among them. Kate is a restless creative, working across natural media, focusing on using the body and natural materials. She talks about making art as being a “full body” kinesthetic experience. Additionally, I’ve know her as an artist with a true love of materials; an outdoor adventure educator and guide; as a high school art teacher, now at Perpich Arts High School. In whatever she does, nature plays an important role. Her exhibition, Navigating New Waters | Susan Hensel Gallery, is also continuing evidence of that passion. […] No Fields Found.
