Abstract works by Local artist Frank Herrmann featured in new display at Elsmere's Gallery 506

A new abstract art exhibition titled 'Dimensions' has opened at Gallery 506 in Elsmere, Kentucky, featuring works by local artist Frank Herrmann. The show, running through December 20, 2025, includes paintings, drawings, watercolors, and sculptures characterized by bright colors, organic shapes, and playful forms. Herrmann, a professor emeritus of fine arts at the University of Cincinnati who earned his MFA there in 1972, works primarily in acrylic on stretched canvas but also experiments with mixed media such as sand, brick dust, and soot. His career includes exhibitions across the U.S., residencies at MASS MoCA and the Foundation for Contemporary Art in the Czech Republic, and pieces held in corporate and private collections.
