Marco Casentini: All Around
Exhibition: August 14, 2010-November 6, 2010

Casentini's exhibit at RAM is monumental, featuring large canvases as well as a huge 15-foot high wall mural installation that stretches the entire length of RAM's Art Alliance gallery.
Adelante Siempre!: Recent Work by Southern California Chicana Photographers
Exhibition: September 11, 2010-November 6, 2010
Adelante Siempre translates as "always moving forward" and features Diane Arellano, Laura Aguilar, and Jacalyn Lopez-Garcia, curated by University of Redlands Professor Ann Marie Leimer.
The work reveals both formal and theoretical approaches to their chosen medium, including a conceptual work by Lopez-Garcia's dog Goldie conducted on Facebook.
Alan Disparte: InterNatural
Exhibition: September 11, 2010-December 2, 2010
Alan Disparte comes from a long family line of farmers and was raised in the rural area of Redlands, California. InterNatural features painting and video installations inspired by the coexistence and conflicts which occur when nature and culture intersect.

Gregory Adamson - 7-Day Mexico Cruise
Departs: November 7, 2010
Deposit: $250 per person, due July 1, 2010
Price: $865.54 - $1185.54, based on double occupancy
"I strive always to push the boundaries of my abilities and continually challenge myself to reach beyond my artistic comfort zone. After all, in the words of the great musician/composer, Herbie Hancock, 'the hip stuff is outside of the comfort zone.'"
-- Gregory Adamson
Gregory Adamson is a local artist and Riverside Art Museum Board member. A performance painter, his studio paintings are held in public and private collections in the United States and in Canada, and his work has been exhibited locally, as well as in Northern California and Japan.
If you are an artist who wants to paint more boldly and expressively, and to overcome your fears of color, bold composition, painting larger, and taking risks, please join Mr. Adamson for a 7-day special artists' cruise to Mexico aboard Royal Caribbean's Mariner of the Seas, departing from San Pedro on November 7 with stops in Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, and Puerto Vallarta.
Mr. Adamson will conduct a 3-day, onboard artist's workshop for artists of any skill level on days the ship is at sea from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. with a lunch break from noon to 1:00 p.m. During the morning sessions, Mr. Adamson will give a lecture and demonstrate the lesson of the day. The afternoon sessions will be devoted to painting time, during which participants will get plenty of individual guidance and constructive criticism.
On one of the workshop days, Mr. Adamson will give a talk, during which he will discuss his experiences as a painter/performance artist, his working methods, and he will show samples of his work. He will also discuss his approach to art marketing, including successes and setbacks. Workshop participants are welcome to bring their non-painting partners to this talk.
The group will also be able to dine together with Mr. Adamson aboard the ship. There will be plenty of opportunities for everyone to socialize and bond with fellow artists.
Please call George Abali at (909) 798-9133 or click here to book your room for this special artists' cruise.
