Established 1973©2014 Reid Baron 4 ■ galleries ■ MARCH 2015 Lightning Strikes I is a mixed media, illuminated, ethereal yet savagely industrial hanging scultural masterpiece by Warren Muller. For over 30 years, Muller has been taking the mundane and ordinary and seeing light in it -- literally. Warren uses luminescence as his guide, as he suspends bottles, perfume containers, old hay baling equipment, bowling pins, deer antlers, metal lunch boxes, bikes, traffic light lenses, and even a retro Mini Cooper into explosions of art, light, and atmosphere. Please join Zenith Gallery in celebrating our 37th anniversary at our newest exhibit "Culture Cluster," on display now until March. Featuring new works by a trio of new artists (Warren Muller, Hadrian Mendoza and Tony Henson) as well as Zenith's wonderfully talented, established crew of artists, Culture Cluster is also a celebration of the rare creativity and integrity of the artist, as well as an acknowledgement of the legions of art collectors and admirers who have kept Zenith Gallery going strong throughout the years.

" Cross MacKenzie Gallery 1675 Wisconsin Ave NW, 202.337.7970 www.crossmackenzie.com Zimra Beiner - Tools for No Purpose. Ceramic Sculpture and Works on Paper, March 6-31. Zimra Beiner's work is inspired by the everyday tools and objects ubiquitous in our domestic lives. Beiner creates forms that seem vaguely familiar, a sink knob, a baseball bat, a rolling pin, but his sculptures diverge from those functional tools into soft cartoonish shapes of his imagination. It feels rather like the results of an archeologist’s excavation, utensils unearthed for us to study and discover their presumed function.
