Stanek Gallery is pleased to present BLUE, a group exhibition experience that transforms the gallery into an immersive exploration of the profound emotional, psychological, and sensory dimensions of a single color.

More than a hue, blue embodies an atmosphere, an enduring metaphor for the human condition and envelops the viewer in a poetic metaphor for reflection, depth, and transformation. Across a range of mediums, participating artists consider the multifaceted nature of blue as both pigment and feeling, as material and meaning, and as a bridge between what is visible and what is intangible.

Throughout history, blue has held a rare and sacred presence, from the ultramarine of Renaissance altarpieces to the meditative abstractions of modern masters. In BLUE, this legacy is reimagined through contemporary perspectives that embrace the color’s duality: its serenity and melancholy, its depth and distance, its ability to soothe even as it evokes longing. The exhibition invites viewers to experience how blue can quiet the senses, slow perception, and hold space for reflection.

The works on view transform the gallery into a realm of contemplation, where light and pigment merge to create an environment of calm intensity. Within this immersive field, each piece contributes to a conversation about how color itself can carry emotion, memory, and meaning. Blue becomes a language that transcends medium, a force that connects heart, mind, and body through a color field of resonance.

The exhibition opens November 15th and will be on view through December 31, 2025, with a soft opening on Saturday, November 15th, for a chance to view “Woman,” Katherine Stanek’s newest concrete piece with her in person.
