out &: about ‘Formations: Patterns in Nature’ connects art with elements BY MARTHA NODAR Linda King, a Brookhavcn resident and frequent visitor to the Spruill Gallery in Dunwoody, felt an immediate connection with the artwork upon examining the gallery’s new exhibit. “I absolutely feel the nature and the earth these artists bring out in their pieces,” said Linda King of Brookhaven. “It is soothing and grounding, but it also leaves you with a longing to find that place in your soul where you could be really connected.” Curated by Buckhead resident Tania Becker, “Formations: Patterns in Nature” includes works by six Georgia artists — Kate Colpitts, Jeannine Cook, Helen DeRamus, Barbara Rehg, Gerry Sattele and Mona Water- house — who belong to Women Caucus for Art, a nonprofit organiza tion devoted to women’s artistic development. The exhibit is on display through April 13. Restaurant Guide View these listings online with a map of each location at www.ReporterNewspapers.net.
