New Artists and their work is the foundation in which the gallery environment has the most direct link to its community. Here at BAMA we believe in showcasing some of the best that contemporary artists have to share.

 

 

"Art arrives at the threshold of our souls. We draw the shades. And then, like an annoying neighbor it knocks until you let your guard down believing this going to be an easy exchange. We let them in. The neighbor is insitant about their cause. After some pleasantries, or maybe not, they leave. In the wake of this encounter we are left speechless: moved. Through the stirring, something has been created; impressed upon. You can't remember the neighbor's purpose. The piece, then, becomes the gift back for art having arrived in the first place..."
