Join us for Steve Sachs’ debut of This ‘n That as he continues to walk the tightrope between real and surreal, humorous and sophisticated; personal and universal. From vintage photographs and ephemera to perforated metal and wood, Sachs assembles found and discarded materials into clever multi-media compositions. As he juxtaposes aged materials with contemporary themes, he creates a retrospective experience that evokes curiosity. By recontextualizing such segments, he invites us to a world of imagination: a place where the complexities of the seemingly marginal are cherished and explored. “Although my materials and methods are constantly changing and evolving, I strive to continuously create art that invites exploration”

Gail Siptak: Fables
“This new group of larger gouache continues my delight in painting mostly animals in the situations I conjure up for them. They do object on occasion and develop their own stories. There are many days of arguments between us, what they want, what I want. At this point we consult each other until we find a solution. If I am headstrong and don’t listen carefully enough, they may morph into yet another creature. And that’s sad. But mostly, eventually all is well and they get happily finished. And then, with Tillie the cat on my table, and the music blasting, we are on to the next story…”
“I paint what I see of the human condition – be it animal or object. The glimmer of humor, pathos, and spirit in so much of what I see is the basis of what I paint.”

koelsch gallery is pleased to announce our latest exhibition “forever, and no time at all”, debuting Thursday, June 13th, 2024. In his ninth solo exhibition with koelsch gallery, self-taught artist W. Tucker creates an immersive installation through found and discarded materials. With some aspects emphasized and others hidden, his work continues to possess a profound sense of duality –– that of the inner child and present self; and the synergy between. By exclusively using his non-dominant hand, he taps into a spectrum of creativity with less deliberacy, structure, and intention. In turn, Tucker is viscerally connected to the honest and intuitive artist that once existed in childhood. His production of childlike imagery and humorous illustrations touch on glimpses of the human condition, and the everyday epic of life.

Join koelsch gallery for the opening reception of our latest exhibition Amy C. Evans: Meals I’ve Loved, debuting Thursday, May 2nd, 2024. “Having spent more than a decade traveling the South, documenting the region’s food culture, many people I first interacted with as strangers eventually became good friends. They were always eager to share their stories and generous in sharing their food, whether a full meal or an impromptu snack, as soon as the business of my visit was over. From Delta hot tamales eaten hot from the pot with Barbara Pope in the Mississippi Delta, milkshakes at the Apalachicola Burger King with Unk and Gloria Quick, or soup beans and cornbread shared as sustenance before clogging with locals at the Carter Family Fold, each shared moment, each bite of food, each generous and kind soul, has made a lasting impression on me and, collectively, they’ve inspired many of these paintings. So, to honor all of my friends with whom I’ve shared moments, and stories, and meals—meals I’ve loved—I share this body of work.”

Melinda Buie returns to Houston for her seventh solo exhibition with koelsch gallery. Through vibrant compositions and artful depictions of childhood memories, Buie continues to pay homage to the often-overlooked life along the East Texas landscape. From intimate cattle portraits to the capture of vernacular architecture, her work possesses a meaningful juxtaposition between color and simplicity. Buie presents to us a work of no disguise.
“My mother always wore colorful dresses. I helped my Grandmother in the garden and took notice of my surroundings. I found pleasure in the simple task of plucking a tomato. The colors of the garden inspire me; growth and color everywhere… Color is one of the most important themes in my work. Without color, we have no emotion.”
