Dayton At Work and Play: Ed Dixon

February 17, 2025 By Bill Franz

I remember showing some of my work at the gallery’s original location near the Arcade. Now it is in a great space near RiverScape.

Ed’s gallery is best known for its annual “We’re Doing it ALL Wrong” exhibition that runs from August 1 to September 28 this year. Artists from across the country submit work that highlights important social issues. I asked Ed where he got the idea for this annual show.

“I started my gallery 7 years ago” he told me. “From the first I wanted to do an exhibition with art work that was thoughtful and thought provoking – maybe even art that spurred people to take action. I didn’t want it to be political. I wanted it focused on issues. During that annual exhibition we sometimes have nonprofit nights, where people can learn more about the local groups that are addressing the issues referenced by the artists in the show.”

There is an interesting mix of art currently in the gallery, with prices ranging from $100 to $8,500. In the first photo above, Ed is standing in front of a beautiful painting by Beavercreek resident Alisa H Workman. She describes her work as lightly abstract floral art.

A group of colorful abstracts currently in the gallery was painted in Cuba by the late Julio Antonio Pino Varens. He had a friend in Dayton who arranged to have the work sent here.

 

 

Also traveling a fair distance are the two pieces currently in the corner by California artist Juko. “She grew up in Dayton” Ed told me. “We went to school together. We lost touch when she moved away and only recently reconnected. In California she got a PhD and has had a great career in forest conservation. And she paints amazing abstract works that I’m happy to bring to Dayton.”
“One of the things I like most about having a gallery is choosing what work to show. This spring we’ll be showing work by Dayton’s Susanne Scherette King. I’ll enjoy being surrounded by her work for a month.”


Next time you’re downtown you should stop by Edward A Dixon Gallery and see what art Ed is currently surrounding himself with.

Artist Marilynn Page: A Night At The Ballet

April 26, 2024 By Dayton937

The Edward A. Dixon Gallery in Downtown Dayton is collaborating with the Dayton Dance Initiative to put on a special Artist Reception for Marilynn Page and her Ballet inspired artwork.

An exhibition featuring several paintings by artist Marilynn Page will open First Friday, May 2024.  “Marilynn was inspired by these powerful athletes to paint this particular series of work” says gallery owner Ed Dixon.  He adds “The artwork is colorful, full of movement and shows the strength of these male and female dancers.”

The exhibition will open with an Artist Reception for Marilynn that will feature a performance by the Dayton Dance Initiative. A portion of the evening’s sales from the artwork will go to the Dayton Dance Initiative. The collective is made up of dancers from some of the area’s professional dance organizations.  The dancers will put on a short performance the evening of the reception at 7pm with movements influenced by Marilynn Page’s artwork. “Through movement and live musical accompaniment, Dayton Dance Initiative dancers bring to life the ballet inspired paintings of Marilynn Page.  Revel in Marilynn’s vision as it extends beyond the canvas into embodied expression, and ultimately into our hearts.” – Jennifer Sydor, Artistic Director, DDI.

The Artist Reception is free and open to the public and will be from 6pm-8:30pm(performance at 7pm) at the Edward A. Dixon Gallery located at 222 N. St. Clair Street.  Light refreshments will be provided.  Free on-street parking is available near the gallery. The exhibition will remain on view in May on Thursday through Sunday from 12pm-5pm each day except Fridays from 3pm-8pm.

Downtown Art Gallery Finds A New Home

July 12, 2022 By Lisa Grigsby

Come August 1st, the Edward A. Dixon Gallery, a commercial art gallery specializing in the exhibition, education, appreciation and sale of International Fine Art, will have a new home in the Opal building on N St Clair Street.

Dixon, who opened his first Dayton gallery in 2017, says he always was going to galleries and museum when he traveled and wanted to bring something that looked more like the places he was going to Dayton.

Dixon said a lot of the success of his original gallery was the ability to do events and bring people together around art.  But then the pandemic hit and his lease was up for renewal and he just wasn’t willing to take that risk knowing in person events weren’t going to happen, so he downsized to a small spot in the Talbot Tower and a bigger online presence.

Color Photograph of Dr. King (at the podium) by Bernie Kleina

He’d been keeping his eye out for a new space and when he saw the Opal building space it just spoke to him.  Just a block away from the river and built in 1900, he could already envision what his gallery would look like there. He’s excited to be able to share art from both locals and artists from around the world to the  the Dayton art scene.

Mother and Child in a Flower Field by Patrick Gono

The art you’ll find in his gallery is eclectic and ever changing. Currently you’ll find a selection of photograhs from Bernie Kleina, a civil rights and fair housing advocate. He has produced some of the most innovative and powerful audio-visual presentations on fair and affordable housing in the country. His photographic archive includes profound images of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Rev. Jesse Jackson, Andrew Young, Al Raby, Dick Gregory, and others.

You’ll also find pieces from Patrick Gono of Monrovia, Liberia who did a residency in Dayton in 2019.  is in Dayton as an artist-in-residence. He created a mural on a Front Street building, while he as here, that was  the result of his visit to Sunwatch Indian Village.

You’ll also find art by Syndey, Oh artist Maureen O’Keefe. The work pictured here   is part of a series of American flags meant to explore her own struggle to come to terms with the diversity of thought in our nation. The background features lyrics from the Woody Guthrie song “This Land Is Your Land.”

Dixon looks forward to welcoming guest back to his gallery with his grand opening on August’s First Friday celebration downtown.  His space will be available for rent for special events and he’s busy planning special exhibits for the fall. He’s currently got a call for entries out for an October exhibit he’ll be doing entitled FOCUS CAPTURE INSPIRE.

The 2nd Annual We’re Doing It ALL Wrong® Art Exhibition will open as a one month long exhibition beginning September 1, 2022. The exhibition seeks to create dialogue and spark ideas related to the many ways humanity continually fails itself.  Artwork from the previous year’s exhibition touched on topics such as the environment & climate change, dependence on technology, social injustice, Native American women disappearances and homelessness.  Many of these ways are discussed in main stream media; some only on social media and small gatherings; while others are barely spoken or purposely kept unspoken.  Artists are encouraged to submit work that captures or is a comment on a tradition, a system, a practice, an institution or anything they see that needs repair or removal that has existed in this state for far too long.  View the online version of the previous exhibition at weredoingitallwrong.com.

Another ambitious goal of the exhibition is to find a signature piece or pieces of artwork that while keeping to the exhibition’s theme defines our current period in history from the artist’s viewpoint.  One art piece can tell so many stories and the goal is to find pieces that will speak to future generations and tell a story about our time.

Award Categories Include:

  • Best in Show – $500 Prize
  • 2nd Place – $250 Prize
  • Signature Artwork – $250 Prize

Downtown Gallery Increasing Local Artwork Offerings

March 13, 2018 By Dayton Most Metro

The Fall 2017 grand opening of the 1,400 square foot Edward A. Dixon Gallery located in Downtown Dayton featured very few artists from the Dayton area and consisted mainly of national and international artwork collected by the gallery’s owner. Since the opening, Dixon has worked to increase his representation of Miami Valley artists and there have been as many as four different local artists with artwork exhibiting in the gallery at the same time.

 

One of the latest local additions to the gallery comes from artist Janet Garlikov who’s beautiful, large scale LACE ON STEEL pieces can even be viewed by downtown pedestrians through the gallery’s large front windows.

Janet Garlikov – LACE ON STEEL – ($2,500.00 for each piece of 40″ x 40″ original Fine Art)

Other artwork exhibiting at the gallery include pieces from multi-talented artist Marilynn Page whose beautiful watercolor portraits and geometric paintings adorn its own section of the gallery, a steel sculpture piece by Jay Favorite, abstract oil-based paintings from Mikee Huber and acrylic and oil portraits from Marcellus Art.

Detail from Marilynn Page artwork inspired by Austrailian Aborigines. Several paintings in the series available now at the gallery.

Upcoming area art coming to the gallery will include a multi-artist exhibition from the African-American Visual Arts Guild (AAVAG) in April 2018 who’s 75 member group currently has work featured across the Dayton area at the Northwest Dayton Metro Library, the Paul Laurence Dunbar House, Dayton RTA and Cultural Center and several other locations.

Marcellus Art.

Owner, Ed Dixon, says “I am also working on a program to feature more emerging artists on a short term basis to give as many area artists an opportunity for exposure and recognition as possible.” Mr. Dixon also indicated there will be a Call For Art announcement in the Spring which local artists will be encouraged to participate.

 

The Edward A. Dixon Gallery is located at 12 South Ludlow Street, Dayton, OH 45402. Current hours are 4pm-8pm on Friday and 12pm-4pm on Saturday. Appointments can be scheduled throughout the week. The gallery’s website  features updates on hours of operations, new art, exhibitions and contact information.
