Karen Rifas: 20/20
This is an exhibition of painting and sculpture. Karen Rifas made a series of increasingly dynamic abstract geometric paintings in which seemingly simple elements coalesce and illusionistic effects – mirages – become facts. In the gallery’s first two rooms wall-sized paintings create an immersive effect with vibrant color palettes and inventive compositional riddles. Three powder-coated aluminum sculptures hover like virtual reality creations in front of the very pieces that inspired them. In the gallery’s office hang exquisite studies, small acrylic paintings on panel, of the patterns in the large works.

Emerson Dorsch is a contemporary art gallery with two complementary roles: first, to represent a core group of select South Florida-based artists and, second, to host and represent excellent emerging and mid-career visiting artists. The gallery’s name became Emerson Dorsch in 2013 to reflect the art and life partnership between husband and wife team Brook Dorsch and Tyler Emerson-Dorsch.
