    Houston artist Erika Alonso presents a powerful solo exhibition in the Bay 100 Gallery at the Silos at Sawyer Yards. Alonso's large watercolor compositions are abstract, but have palpable depth that draws you in. The layering and the wide variety of dynamic marks accumulate to just the right point of tension, conjuring narrative landscapes—spacious, imagined terrains animated by lyrical lines, repetition, and ritual. Visitors are invited to take a moment to reflect upon these landscapes and whatever creatures and stories they find waiting there. Join Alonso in Bay 100 Gallery on June 5, from 6-9 pm, for a public reception.

    Nevine Mahmoud unearths uncanny worlds from stone: jumbo-sized fruits drip with glass, a contorted marble faun arcs like an acrobat, and children's toys are immortalized in white alabaster. Mahmoud's works are placed throughout Asia Society Texas' public spaces, engaging in a material dialogue with the building and manipulating one's understanding of nature. (713) 496-9901

    Vian Sora (b. 1976, Baghdad) creates dazzling, layered abstractions that channel the turbulence of life, ancient Mesopotamian history, and Iraq's diverse natural landscapes. For Sora, the multilayered effects of her paintings give a concrete form to the chaos of life. For its expanded display at AST, 'Outerworlds' will feature Sora's paintings in dialogue with works by sculptor John Chamberlain and painter Etel Adnan. (713) 496-9901

    Join us for a rare opportunity to compare, contrast, and enjoy the works of two exceptional artists. Text by art historian Alex Bacon accompanies. Alex Bacon writes, "Over…the 1950s, numerous artists working in different parts of the world arrived…at ways of activating perception. This global aesthetic orientation paralleled a period of unprecedented research into optics and the physiognomy of vision, accompanied by popular interest fed by the media. Carlos Cruz-Diez and Julian Stanczak are two such artists, Cruz-Diez based in Caracas and Paris, and Stanczak in the United States. Both artists sought, in their particular…ways, to materialize and actualize color." 713-529-1313

    Jasmine Rossi: Sublime features large-scale prints of landscapes from Patagonia, China, and East Texas that enthrall the viewer with painterly elegance and stark realism, drawing a thin line between mysticism and science, beauty and sublimity, contemplation and danger. Jasmine Rossi was born in Switzerland to an Italian father and a German mother. She now resides in Buenos Aires, Argentina, from where she travels to her favorite "canvas": the vast ice fields of southern Patagonia. Rossi has undertaken long and perilous expeditions to the Arctic Circle in Greenland, Antarctica, the Namib Desert in Africa, and the Atacama Desert in Chile. 713-529-1313
