Opening in the Side Gallery: Solo Exhibition by Brian Strigel
“Everything’s Connected: Connecting the Dots Life is full of dots waiting to be connected. Nothing exists alone. Everything connects. These paintings begin like connecting the dots—small shapes coming together to form something larger. As they link, patterns appear: cells, systems, life. Inspired by science but guided by color, the work shows how simple parts become something complex and alive. The connections are visible.” On view in the Side Gallery at CityArts (39 S. Magnolia Avenue) May 21, 2026 – June 13, 2026
