‘Color Burst and Earth Bound: Dual Exhibits Opens July 30, 2022
Mr. Mann’s Design Gallery is highlighting Craig Mann’s art in two exhibits: Color Burst in the Main Gallery, and Earth Bound in the Incubator 1 Gallery.
These dual exhibits both complement and compete in playful and provocative ways. Color gradually fades into the colors of the earth.
As the premier painting suggests, two meanings lie beneath one as if to ‘pull back the curtain’.
The exhibits are exclusive to Mr. Mann’s Design Gallery and can be appreciated throughout the virtual gallery above, or the photos below.'
‘Nature of Light’ Exhibit, October 9, 2021 When does light become art? Light is an essential element that permeates life. Without light, paintings cannot come to life.
Craig Mann’s latest exhibit ‘Nature of Light’ highlights his use of light as a technique. Because light is a common theme, there are several different styles to these paintings, including Abstract, Realism, Impressionism. Interestingly, some paintings highlight the ‘dark’ of light and how the lack of light can accentuate beams of light themselves. The landscapes provided by nature itself have inspired many of the paintings. Many of the vistas of the desert in the Springtime when nature comes to life.
The exhibit is exclusive to the Mr. Mann’s Design Gallery, but can also be appreciated through the gallery below or the virtual gallery above.

More than black and white As light submits to night As much to reveal as conceal To challenge ken of sight
Is it an angel, or is it an omen? The dawn of a new day? Or just the eye of a storm?
This but I know…
Contrast exists It persists and twists ways of thinking Whether we resist or assist
