galleries - september 2010
In a city that houses an internationally known art museum, it’s only natural that private galleries abound. Here are a few of the spots we’re sure you’ll enjoy:
DAVID BARNETT GALLERY, 1024 East State St., features the works of Milwaukee native Robert Richter who began painting at eight and whose unique paintings are hand carved on wood.
CAGGIO: AN ART EXPERIMENT, 918 E. Brady St., features painter Daniel Kaiser. Other artists whose works will be on display through Sept. 15 are painter Greg Schoeneck, wildlife photographer Mark Johnson and Painter Janice Dicko.
Also showing works through mid-September are Katherine Sorenson, William Lemke, Michael Imes and Trina Frost. The next show at Caggio will feature Brent Oudean and Gwyneth Murphy.

Caggio owners Kaitlin Rathkamp and Joseph Ledger have been involved in Milwaukee's local creative art scene for years and their focus is “showcasing local talent and putting accessible art in the hands of the public.
KATIE GINGRASS GALLERY, 241 N. Broadway in the Historic Third Ward, is featuring unusual media in interesting forms in an exhibition called “Fifth Dimension.”
Nearby at TORY FOLLIARD GALLERY, 233 N. Milwaukee St., the new paintings of Marion Coffey and large-scale paintings of William Nichols are featured through Sept. 4, along with porcelain and bronze sculptures of Susan Stamm Evans. From Sept. 10-Oct. 9, the gallery will feature new paintings of Terrence James Coffman and paintings on small wood panels by Brook Slane.
RIVERVIEW ANTIQUE MARKET at 175 S. Water St., just south of the Historic Third Ward, is the place to shop for vintage oil paintings and other artworks offered by many of the area’s leading antique dealers.
Inside the Marcus Center for the Performing Arts, 929 N. Water St., is the MORNING GLORY GALLERY, featuring art from more than 50 Wisconsin artists. The gallery is open from noon-6 p.m. Thurs.-Sat. and when shows are held in the center's Uihlein Hall.
