Art in the Stacks logo with images of artwork by featured artist, Luke GawronMay 1 - 31
Featuring Luke Gawron in the Charley Krone Gallery

In May, artist Luke Gawron (@lukegawronart) will display his exhibit titled At What Cost in the Charley Krone Gallery. Luke Gawron is a fine artist and art educator based out of Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania. At What Cost is an exploration of the tension between progress and preservation, comfort and consequence. Each piece begins as a collage— piecing together striking visuals of people and the environments they are involved with—before being transformed into bold acrylic paintings that confront pressing social issues. Through this body of work, Luke examines the shifting natural world and the sacrifices made to maintain societal norms, questioning the true cost of our unwillingness to change.

Art in the Stacks is a monthly gallery series at the New Cumberland Public Library in partnership with the New Cumberland Collective. Each month will feature a new local artist exhibit in the library's gallery spaces.
