New Exhibit at Bethesda Gallery Spotlights Four Artists

Gallery B in Bethesda announced its newest exhibit, Crossroads: Four Artists, which features sculptures, drawings and paintings.

Crossroads: Four Artists showcases work from artists Jeffery Cooper, Rebecca Hirsh, Sally Levie and Philippe Mougne.

A mathematician for 40 years, Cooper creates wooden sculptures that have been displayed in local galleries and juried shows.

Both Hirsh and Levie are distinguished painters. Levie served as the Chairman of the Art Department at Blessed Sacrament School in Washington, D.C. for 22 years and earned a National Art and Education and State Farm National Teacher Award in 1996. Hirsch spent 20 years as a picture researcher and illustrated books like The Mother’s Almanac by journalist Marguerite Kelly.

The final artist in the showcase, Mougne, applies his background in sculpture, interior design and decoration into his craft; the artist draws inspiration from the building materials he observes around the capital. Mougne was twice selected as a feature in the Foggy Bottom Outdoor Sculpture Exhibit.

Crossroads: Four Artists will be on display from Dec. 3 through Dec. 27 on Wednesdays through Saturdays from noon to 6 p.m.

For more information about this exhibit or other upcoming programs, contact the gallery at 301-215-7990.
