4worldlovers: Charles Heppner’s work looks to the power of the contour, the universal interconnectedness of all things. His work can be both delicate and bold but always deep and rich, exploring mankind’s place in the great arc of nature.

In Heppner’s Sanctum Boxes he questions his own role and behavior in society in intimate mixed media box constructions. His assemblage works marry hard angles, cloud like fabrics, and the natural world, held frozen in a moment in time. His complex arboreal composite photographs Forest Hug and Arboreal Jewels express his spiritual connection to the beauty in nature.

Charles Heppner seeks to reconnect us with the divine elements within us through meditative moments of color and the dynamics of the compositional whole. The whole of his ever creative interaction with abstraction, and the truth of personal perception.

4worldlovers: Excellent spot for picking up art from local artists. If they don't have a particular size of a certain piece you're looking for just ask the employees. They can reach out to the artist to see if it's attainable. A lot of artist that seek work at the blue genie Christmas market can be found here. So if you were eyeing something at blue genie but didn't pull the trigger on a purchase (my wife and I every year...). I would definitely stop by here to see if they have it. Go and support your local artists!

To me, Austin Art Garage is Austin. They embody the culture, the character, and the talent that this city radiates! I had the pleasure of working with Jake and his very competent staff while recently helping our clients decorate their new office. While our client was deciding on specific pieces, going back and forth with choices, and at one point almost giving up on all that we had selected, Jake and his team were courteous, kind, extremely professional. I am now with a super happy client and more love for Austin Art Garage. Thank you!! I encourage you to check them out and buy more local art!

This place is soooooo cool. Features the best local art Austin has to offer. Lots of fun mixed media work, cool dreamy robots, and features of some of my favorite iconography: analog music players. If it were easier to fly with, I would've picked up "turntable #1" in a heartbeat.

Go drool over local art, buy it if you still have the wall space. Really gorgeous stuff, a must-visit for out-of-towners.

I'm so glad I decided to visit Austin Art Garage on my recent trip to Austin. The art selection is beautifully eclectic and unique, and I was able to find a few small, budget-conscious pieces to take home. Highly recommended!

Very nice art gallery! The pieces were all bold and great conversational pieces. The prices were not over-the-top as well. Good quality artwork without spending an entire check one piece.

My favorite stop while in Austin!! The local artist's pieces on display and for sale were amazing. The building itself was awesome to see. Super fun experience. I'm so glad I was able to stop here and ecstatic with the pieces I took home to remind me of my visit. Keep it weird Austin!!

4worldlovers: Howell’s palette is informed by nature and its flux between calm and chaos. She describes it as an ongoing conversation. Each color and mark applied to the canvas informs the next; colors give the impression of physical weight and become instruments, much as in a musical composition. As the work progresses, the painting becomes a collaboration, a dialogue between Howell and the canvas.

The Haas Brothers will present a live art activation on the new grounds of the Blanton Museum of Art on Saturday, June 10th, 3-8pm.

The online viewing room for HAAS BROTHERS: Snails in Comparison is now live—See the exhibition here.

Lora Reynolds is pleased to announce the gallery is moving—its new home, at 1126 West Sixth Street in Austin, is just west of downtown, nestled between Clark's Oyster Bar and Swedish Hill. After 16 years of programming at the 360 Tower (and 18 years in operation), Reynolds is looking forward to offering the gallery's artists a new environment to stretch their imaginations. The gallery will have about 1100 square feet of exhibition space (similar to the size of its previous location) in addition to a small library.

The inaugural exhibition at Lora Reynolds Gallery in Clarksville will be by fraternal twins Niki and Simon Haas, known as the Haas Brothers. Niki and Simon grew up just a few blocks north of the new gallery, and have fond memories of overindulging at the former Sweetish Hill Bakery & Cafe.

The historic building at 1126 West Sixth Street was built in 1925 in the Mission Revival style; its original Alamo-inspired façade is still intact. It housed DA Goldstein's Grocery Store and Slaughter's Grocery Store for the first few decades of its life, before being occupied by Cunningham Community Stores and Tucker's Department Store in the 1950s. Reynolds is excited about being a part of McGuire Moorman Lambert Hospitality's vision for the future of this block—Clarksvillage—which will include a low-slung hub of restaurants, shops, a hotel, and private residences designed by acclaimed Swiss architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron.

The new gallery was designed by the same architects responsible for Lora Reynolds Gallery's previous two homes, David Fox and Chris Stone of STONEFOX in New York. The phrase that anchors their practice is "Where architecture, art, and design meet," and they have specialized in creating spaces for art and art lovers since 2002. Reynolds has worked with Stone and Fox on various projects almost continuously since they began their firm; their sensibilities have evolved together, culminating—for now—in the completion of the new gallery.

Lighting design was provided by Anita Jorgensen, whose firm in New York has won numerous awards for their work over the last 20 years. Highlights from her portfolio include commissions for the Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum, Frick Collection, Jewish Museum, Morgan Library & Museum, Rhode Island School of Design Museum, and Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History.

Lora Reynolds established the gallery in March 2005 after working with Anthony d'Offay Gallery in London and Matthew Marks Gallery in New York. She focuses on living artists who are making museum-quality work and showing at galleries in major art centers around the world. By offering a venue in a smaller city—and showing work in any and all media—she hopes to give artists a safe space to dream more fearlessly than they may have been able to elsewhere. She works with artists whose ideas about the world enrich her own and hopes their work might do the same for the art-curious in Austin and beyond.
