New exhibit at hob’art launched in Hoboken

HOBOKEN — All are invited to an artists’ reception will be held on Saturday, Aug. 19 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. for their latest exhibit “Unseen.” It runs through Sept. 16.
“Unseen” is an exhibit of photographic, collage, and mixed media works, which focus on the essential elements that are often overlooked in everyday comings and goings. The images delve into the subject matter to reveal the unseen or unintended.
Ann Kinney’s photograph’s focus on the images within the commonplace as she finds things are not what they seem.
In her collages, she juxtaposes images to redefine their ordinariness. She sees her work as a photo-fusion of images and materials, combining colored pencil, watercolor, pastel, ink and mixed media and her photographs.
Don Sichler’s discovers art in the images he photographs in looking for the things that most people don’t see. His photography uses color and distortion to draw us into the picture leaving us with a sense of more than meets the eye.
Free parking is available at the side of the building on Seventh Street and is wheelchair accessible. Gallery information may be obtained on the website www.hob-art.org and from the Director, France Garrido, 201-319-1504 or director@hob-art.org.
“Unseen”, an exhibition by Ann Kinney and Don Sichler, runs at hob’art co-operative gallery, 720 Monroe St, Suite E208.
