Principle Gallery showcases a recent sale of a painting by Megan Aline
“Memory Field…went to a very sweet local couple who just popped in one day,” shares gallery assistant director, Taylor Chauncey. “They took it home on approval for a few days and determined it was the perfect painting for their home.” Commenting on Aline’s paintings, Chauncey adds, “We’ve done extremely well with Megan’s work, and we haven’t even carried her for a full year yet! Her paintings exude such elegance and emotion, so they resonate with so many of our collectors. I also love that she creates paintings in so many different sizes because Old Town [Alexandria, Virginia] residents don’t have massive walls, but they have a nook or a slender wall where an Aline can fit perfectly.”+++

Work featured in a preview of a March show sells through 33PA and 33 Contemporary
Angelika Weinekötter’s piece Contemporary Eve was featured in a March preview of the show The Modern Female, presented by 33PA and 33 Contemporary. The show was viewable on Artsy.com, as well as at 33 Contemporary’s showroom in Lake Worth Beach, Florida. About Contemporary Eve, Weinekötter says, “In [this] painting…nature and technology merge in a way that allows us to experience the ancient story of temptation in a modern context. The snake, a symbol of the biblical temptation in the Garden of Eden, reappears—only this time, it’s not an apple that captures the figure’s attention, but a smartphone. This subtle parallel points to the temptation of our era: where the snake once symbolized knowledge and insight, it’s now technology that promises us the world at our fingertips. But like the ancient temptation, there is a danger—the distancing from the real, natural world as we become increasingly entangled in the digital. This painting invites us to pause and reflect: have we traded the real world for an illusion?” —+++
