Make Tahoe, Freshly Groomed Vinyl and the Art of Cherie Pinsky
Event Description: 

Browse our Freshly Groomed Vinyl at Keynote Used Records and Books and see the art exhibit by Cherie Pinsky.

The exhibit is part of “Sound and Vision”, a series of introductions to work of local visual artists and the reciprocal connections of music and the art created. Cherie Pinsky’s paintings are full of energy that emanates from her loose brushwork and abstract shapes built with bright color and vibrant light. In her artist statement she states, “[My] paintings present both poetic and conventional images of Western American iconic landscapes. Often using 19th Century subjects or photographs, she takes advantage of history to imbue her work with a sweet/sad feeling of romantic nostalgia.” Pinsky’s background also includes eight years of studying the fiddle. The fiddle is undeniably instrumental in American Folk music, and her love of “old timey” music is played throughout her work as she engages the viewer to travel back to an earlier era and more sentimental times.
One of Pinsky’s favorite subjects is historic Bodie, CA. Now a ghost town and historic park, Pinsky brings us back in time as visitors to this once boomtown, walking among the wooden structures and stepping inside to explore the trappings of late 1800’s everyday life. Pinsky’s linoleum prints evoke the Arts and Crafts movement from the turn of the century and include images of some of South Lake Tahoe’s older cabins. Her more playful scenes will take you skiing and meeting friends at the top of Heavenly.

Make Tahoe Records will be donating a portion of the proceeds from their sales of "Freshly Groomed Vinyl" (a curated selection of new alternative and independent releases and reissues) to the Tahoe Art League.
