Splatterscapes – The Art of Charles Baughman

Opening reception:
Friday Feb. 15 – 6pm to 9pm

The show continues:
Saturday Feb. 16 – 10am to 5pm

Artist talk and painting demonstration on Saturday from 1pm to 3pm.

After 32 years, Charles Baughman is very excited to be back in Omaha!

Nationally recognized, Wichita-based artist and educator Baughman creates beautiful landscapes full of energy and movement in his signature expressionist style; the beautiful colors of Monet meet the action painting of Pollock. Up close, the works are abstract; but step back and the landscape reveals itself amidst the splatters and swirls of paint.

COMING FEB 22-24: Banana SPLIT – Erotic Art Show

Opening Reception:
FRI, FEB 22 – 6pm to 9pm

Exhibition Continues:
SAT, FEB 23 – 12pm to 6pm
SUN, FEB 24 – 12pm to 5pm

When we think of “erotic art,” sensuality is what comes to mind. Each of us has a different perspective and experience in regards to desire, passion, and sensuality. Sharing those interpretations are what makes an erotic art show exciting, engaging, and FUN. The world could use an extra dose of love and levity right now.

Banana SPLIT is inspired by Omaha’s original Biennial Erotic Art Show that began in the late 1980’s at the 13th Street Gallery Collective. The show later moved to the Antiquarium and was a beloved event of Omaha’s art community with its liberating theme.

Artwork from more than 30 artists will be featured in this show, showcasing individual interpretations of eroticism in a variety of mediums.

Contributing artists include:

Daryl Anderson, Wendy Bantam, Lori Elliot Bartle, Annie Brugenhempe, Larry Ferguson, Chad Fonfara, Rob Gilmer, Walker Greene, Jaim Hackbart, Bill Hoover, Bekah Jerde, Alex Jochim, Mari Johann, Jeff King, Anthony Licari, Shawnequa Linder, Sharon Manhart, Tim McEvoy, Amy Nelson, Tony Oliveto, Abby Phoenix, Kristin Pluhacek, Jill Rizzo, Sarah Rowe, Rachelle Schieffer, Trudy Swanson, Patty Talbert, Lori Tatreau, Bart Vargas, Toan Vuong, Brian Wetjen, Linda Young Williams, and more…

Thank you, Bart!

We’d like to express extreme gratitude and thanks to everyone who came out to Bart Vargas‘ exhibition and studio sale yesterday. It was a great success, with a steady stream of visitors all day, many fun conversations, and A LOT of artwork sold!

When you buy art from artists at Split Gallery, all the proceeds go directly to the artist. Your support helps them continue to make art, and we think that’s pretty important. If you’re interested in having your own event at Split, please contact us.

Thanks again for your support, and thanks to Bart for choosing Split Gallery!

Welcome to Split Gallery

Split Gallery is a venue for artists.

We’re calling it Split Gallery because it’s a split from the traditional commission-based gallery model. It’s also a space to be shared. Split is for artists who want to have a place to host studio sales, pop-up shows, exhibitions, classes, performances, lectures, readings, workshops, and other things that artists often need a venue for.

Additionally, we provide space for rent and professional services and support for artists including in-gallery sales events, pop-up art shows, artwork photography, and more.
