Warner Gallery

The Warner Gallery welcomes visitors to the O'Brien Arts Center, which opened to the public in October 2004 with an exhibition of 20th Century American masterworks from the Payson Collection. Each year, four visiting artist exhibitions are on view to the St. Andrew's community and the public in the Warner Gallery. Each exhibition opens with a reception and gallery talk by the artist.

For more information, please call Mr. John McGiff at 302/285-4215.

ARTIST STATEMENT:

I begin much the way I would envision an author starts a piece of fiction. A character is born or a story line begins. If you listen carefully enough, the subject will help you to travel thru the entire journey. Whether it's a rusted piece of metal, branches from an oak tree, or a torn scrap of typography...the right juxtaposition can always find its way into one of my constructions. The more absurd the better. The end result happens when these various found or created elements come together to form a believable vision.
