Scottsdale art gallery opens two solo exhibitions

Posted

The de Sarthe Gallery Scottsdale, 7507 E. McDonald Drive, is hosting drinks and music by Teengen 6-8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 7, in celebration of the joint opening of Ron Contra's and Rick Levinson's solo exhibitions.

"Consumptive Attention" is an exploration by Contra into the modern world's tug of war between meaningful engagement and shallow distractions. In response to battles with addiction and digital saturation, Contra's art offers a commentary on an individual’s relationship with technology. Through a blend of dark imagery against vibrant backdrops, the exhibition envisions a future where nature and technology coexist, concealing underlying despair.

"Out of Thin Air" is an immersive art installation by Levinson, which explores the interplay between the physical and the intangible. Levinson delves into the realm of reactive feelings and the indelible impressions they leave, often overshadowing one’srecollection of physical attributes.
