3Exhibit – The Art of Love, Paintings and Sculptures of Polly Cook + Somers Randolph
Opening Event, Saturday, January 17
On view January 17 – February 15
6pm – 9pm
Monthaven Art & Cultural Center
1017 Antebellum Cir, Hendersonville
Monthaven is welcoming Valentine’s Day with an exhibition titled “The Art of Love: Paintings and Sculptures by Polly Cook and Somers Randolph.” Polly Cook, a Texas-based artist,” has long been inspired by themes of love. Indeed, love is at the heart of all of her artwork, along with the accompanying emotions of longing, regret, desire, passion, joy and hope. Cook insists that her works not be interpreted as literal stories. Rather, they are emotional narratives and visual poetry. They are meant to be experienced as well as seen.
Cook grew up in Nashville and attended her first pottery class at the art center at Centennial Park when she was 10. Her love of romantic poets, such as Byron, Shelley, and Keats, along with the Pre-Raphaelite artists took her to England when was 16. There, she was introduced to German Expressionism and the German Realists of the 1920s. Both movements would exert an influence on her style.
A California transplant, Somers Randolph became a pioneer of Nashville’s coffee culture when he lived here in the 1990s. He opened Blue Sky Court in 1991, which is considered Music City’s first true coffeehouse, predating Bongo Jave, Fido and Starbucks. As an artist, he quickly became known for his abstract sculptures, with their delicate curves and arcs, intricate whorls and spirals, and sensuous undulating Knots.
Randolph, whose studio is now located in Santa Fe, NM, showcased his spectacular abstract sculptures at the MACC over the summer of 2025 as part of an exhibit titled “Canvas + Stone,” which also featured the encaustic paintings of Nashville artist Kathryn Dettwiller. For his Valentine’s exhibition, Randolph will be bringing some of his stylish sculptural hearts. Like all of his works, these colorful hearts will be polished to absolute perfection. They are guaranteed to get visitors into the Valentine’s spirit.
