Dynamics and Movement

Join us at the Warriors Art Room for a gallery showing that explores movement, energy, and emotional expression through bold mark-making and dynamic composition. Influenced by the raw intensity of action painting, each work captures a moment in motion—inviting viewers to engage with art that feels active, alive, and continually evolving. The exhibition features work by Edward John Stathis and opens on January 31 at 12 PM.

PLAYING WITH THE PAST
2026-04-25 18:00 - 20:00
Chris Bordenca is the next featured artist at the Warriors Art Room.
Chris is a painter whose work explores personal connections to the objects and places of his youth in the 1970s and 1980s. His paintings often draw from the visual world of action figures, toys, and classic video games, turning familiar images into thoughtful, nostalgic works of art. Chris has exhibited throughout New England in both solo and group shows, and several of his paintings have received awards, including Pink Pony Club, which won First Place for acrylic painting at the Northeast Fine Arts Exposition in 2025.
He was the Amherst Public Art Commission’s featured artist for November and December 2020 and made his first appearance at the 2023 Spring Paradise City Arts Festival in Northampton, Massachusetts. His work can also be found in shops in Amherst, Provincetown, and Hadley, and in private collections around the world.
Chris is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. He lives in Ludlow, Massachusetts with his family.
As part of this show, Chris will generously donate 20% of all proceeds back to the Warriors Art Room, helping support our mission and the artists and veterans we serve.
“Almost nothing gets forgotten anymore. The past exists in the collective memory of the internet, and we can reach in and physically bring those memories into our present.” — Chris Bordenca
