KEITH LINDBERG

Sometimes, the title of an art piece is its essential element. The above painting by Keith Lindberg is titled “Kitchen Table.” This piece is part of the Carmel Art Association’s All Members Show. This show features new artworks from all 80 current CAA artist members, from stunning paintings to captivating sculptures. Lindberg has been living and working in Carmel for over 40 years. On his website, the artist wrote: “I’m always working on total format, the balance of color and value: the proportion of it, the clarity of how it comes together, how one color meets another and where the value change takes place. I never really solve it, but I try.” The opening reception takes place from 4-7pm on Saturday, Jan. 13. The exhibit closes on Monday, Feb. 5. [AP]
