KINGFIELD — The Stadler Gallery will open its summer season with exhibitions of photographs taken by Jim Donahue and small sculptural works by Deborah Loughlin.

Donahue has made it his quest to seek out the unique setting that will give an elusive subject the most perfect embodiment, for instance a full moon of which there are only 12 opportunities a year.

His equipment is basic: a camera, hiking boots, camping gear and a road map. Although his photographs are taken digitally, they aren’t recreated on a computer, except for minor adjustments that could also be achieved through the development process of 35 mm film. His exhibit is titled “Quintessence.”

Loughlin calls herself a crow by nature, searching for and picking up items to reconfigure, to make her art. They could be shiny objects, the flotsam and jetsam one stumbles upon while walking along Casco Bay beaches, innumerable cast-off objects tangled up in fish line or auto parts.

Works in her “Rubber and Wax” exhibition feature rubber that’s been pulled and stretched, with wax applied as finish so everything fits together.

There will be a closing reception for the artists from 2 to 4 p.m. on Friday, July 16.

Both exhibitions will be on view daily, from noon to 4 p.m. or by appointment, from June 26 through July 16. For more information, visit www.stadlergallery.com.
