WAYNESBURG – A guest art exhibition featuring the work of Matthew Stemler will be held in the Benedum Fine Arts Gallery Jan. 20 through Feb. 14. An opening reception will take place from 6 to 8 p.m. Jan. 20. Admission is free and the public is invited.

Stemler’s art joins kinetic maneuverability with an interest in forms derived from nature and its processes. Installations designed by Stemler use engineered structures and delicate effects to create contemplative spaces.

Stemler resides in Philadelphia and serves as the fine arts department coordinator and high school art teacher at Philadelphia Montgomery Christian Academy. He is also on the Association of Christian Schools International Fine Arts Festival Visual Arts Team, where he oversees the adjudication process and category revision.

Exhibitions of his work include Art in City Hall, James A. Michener Art Museum and Myrtle Gallery. Stemler’s installations have been exhibited at the Eastern State Penitentiary Museum and the LGTripp Gallery. His work can also be viewed at matthewstemler.com.

Stemler earned an associate degree in commercial art from Antonelli Institute of Art and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Temple University’s Tyler School of Art.

Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday, or by appointment by calling 724-852-3247.
