February 21 - March 22, 2003

"NEW VIBES" is the singularly appropriate title for the upcoming Padulo Longstreth Goldberg ART exhibition, to run from February 21st through March 22nd.  Fresh and dynamic paintings and sculpture from five of the gallery's most popular artists will be featured, including Mark Chatterley, Slade, Henry Richardson, Thom Thomas, and Lee L'Clerc.

This show's featured sculptor, MARK CHATTERLEY, is a former university professor whose sculptures are garnering international attention.  His haunting but instantly recognizable "Pompeii-like" crater glazed ceramic and bronze sculptures have been featured in SCULPTURE and CERAMICS magazines, as well as AMERICAN STYLE and ART NEWS.  This exhibition will showcase several new large works, including a "human" pyramid, twelve foot tall cyclists, flying and wall mounted figures.  Chatterley has also created several small sculptures for this show that are equally provocative.
HENRY RICHARDSON, heralded as a "Magician With Glass," has garnered every accolade imaginable in all the prestigious American shows of glass art.  "Tikkun," all five thousand pounds of its fractured-glass-six-foot-in-circumference-stately-
presence, mesmerizes the eye and stirs the soul.

SLADE, whose last show was positively reviewed in ART NEWS, continues to display her amazing drawing and painting skills in these newest paintings, which appear to be elaborate  embellishments upon previous metaphysical explorations.  A monumental triptych, "DISPARATES" will be featured.
THOM THOMAS, the newest addition to the gallery's stable of artists, is a painter  who asks, "Why Not?" as he continues his explorations into the creation of a body of work which is becoming increasingly sculptural and dimensional in its focus.  His incredibly complex paintings involve myriad patterns and primitive forms, and are attracting considerable attention in the gallery.
LEE L'CLERC continues his love of story telling through painting, the never-ending correspondence between words and images.  With a constantly innovative but subtle palette, L'Clerc has produced wonderfully provocative new paintings which speak to the interrelations between the contemporary and the classical works.
