Eno Gallery has a nearly perfect setting for a gallery. It's on the corner of two busy streets, is…read morea taller building than it's immediate neighbors, and has big windows that make you want to look inside. So I did. I saw a nice gallery, with the white walls and squeaky light colored wood floors. The first floor is a little crowded, with the paintings, pottery, glass work, small sculptures and miscellany. On the day I was there, a couple of the artists whose work is displayed were there for an open house, so maybe that's why the area seemed cluttered. For me, the second floor is more interesting. The narrow stairs leading to it, open into a large room with minimalistic decor. The displays are the only decoration. It was more conducive to showing the art than the downstairs. It's modern art, by many local people and a few nationally known artists. There's a lot of mixed media pieces and sculptures, each interesting, but for me, more at home in a gallery than in my home. Still, it's a compelling place to visit and a great place to perhaps meet the artists during the monthly open houses.

My husband and I stopped in at the Eno Gallery after a wonderful lunch just up the street…read more They have a very nice variety of art from local artists. You'll find sculpture, pottery, glass, and paintings. This is where I discovered (and fell in love with) the artwork of Larry Gray. Mr. Gray does large format paintings of luminous, turbulent skies over the tiniest sliver of landscape. It is amazing how the paintings seem to have an internal light, and the barest shimmer of rainbow colors. I am baffled by his technique, and completely in awe of his talent. I am not surprised that he has work in the permanent collections of MOMA and the Art Institute of Chicago. I am -completely- surprised that the Eno Gallery website allows you to download high resolution jpgs of his work! I can only assume that Mr. Gray wants as many people to enjoy his artwork as possible, even people like me who can't afford to spend $12,000 for one of his spectacular paintings. Still, a jpg is no substitution for the real thing, so I encourage you to stop in and see his work in person.

Here, one can find charming hand-painted, up-cycled wooden vessels; well-wrought laser-cut metal wall-sculptures that convey dimensionality even though they are just 2-D (still want that 1964 Mustang that looks like it is going to drive off of the wall); and skillfully painted oils and water colors. The common denominators are two: All of the work is local and the owner, Shirley, personally selects the artists. Shirley is a former art teacher and an artist in her own right. Indeed, some of her work hangs in the gallery. Shirley drips with southern charm and hospitality as she cheerfully discusses a piece or artist. No hushed tones or pretentiousness here. Although the gallery's posted hours are limited, Shirley welcomes guests by appointment. All you have to do is ring her up.

Have driven past this place countless times and have always been intrigued by the eclectic nature I…read morecould see. Today, finally while driving past u saw that the open sign was on so I decided to make a quick stop and check it out. While I had a sort of strange and short experience I'll start with what I saw. Full of trinkets and a variety of items, it seems like a fantastic little spot to explore. The interior was not large, a small little shop likely food for a handful of people at a time, packed with things ranging from fun dishes, records, clothing, and random knickknacks. There was a little library outside along with larger pieces like statues and even some art pieces inside. Now I would love to go back and properly explore, get a better gauge of the pricing as well, but the reason I said "seems" earlier is that when I arrived, the lights were on, open sign was on, door was open. I walked in and there was some radio playing. But not a single person in sight, mind you it's a small space. I said "hello" a few times, stood there in plain view in case anybody walked out (last thing I wanted was to spook somebody on accident being behind a shelf or anything), and heard no response. I stood there a couple minutes, just looking around, but was a tad uncomfortable, not due to the place just the situation, and thus decided to leave and come back another time to more properly explore this space that seemed like a blend of an antique store and a child's playhouse. At least I now know their hours so I'll try again soon!

It's all thanks to Rod O. for his stellar review that I made my way to Adam Cave Fine Art and I can assure you I will return. The gallery itself is in an old building directly on Hargett Street (next door to Landmark Tavern). Walk up the old, creaky, wooden steps to a beautiful, open room with hardwood floors, bright natural lighting and paintings hung all around. The gallery consists of three separate rooms and has rotating exhibits every 1.5 months or so. The current exhibit, David Dunlop, is an incredible treat to view with beautiful nature and city scenes painted on aluminum with oils (exhibit on display until April 19th!) Although there were only a handful of people upon our visit, Adam Cave, the owner, was greeting everyone and interacting with them on a personal level. There was also complimentary cheese and wine being offered which was a very classy touch on a Sunday afternoon. I checked the website to see if there was a calendar of events so you'd know when they'd be offering these type of perks in the future, but didn't see any information. I did sign up for the e-mail per Adam's request, so hopefully I'll be updated on future events and exhibits through that. Adam Cave Fine Art Gallery is definitely a must visit during First Friday, and will now certainly be on my list (and it's so convenient to anyone already downtown!) I highly recommend giving the gallery a try, I guarantee anyone that appreciates art will appreciate the gallery and you can't help but feel you've stepped back in time as you walk up the flight of steps into a world of beauty in a beautifully restored building.
