"I meet Ryan Orewiler, a thoughtful thirtysomething, upstairs at Caterina, a Euro-centric home goods store on the Village’s South 3rd Street, near a spectacular old bookstore as well as the first-ever Max and Erma’s Restaurant, which was a German Village gathering spot before it was built along every off-ramp in this part of the country.
The proprietor of the home design shop, Catherine Adams, a worldly and appealing woman, has loaned her upstairs gallery space to Orewiler, founder and director of the German Village Art League, for its first juried show.
Orewiler was raised in the neighborhood; he shows off the diverse collection of work that includes some of his own pieces, then offers to show me the "small apartment" that he shares with his girlfriend over on one of the nicest streets in the Village.
The apartment turns out to be the entire first floor of a two-story building; it includes a well-tended side garden and a spacious back patio, plus a covered back deck for those rainy evenings when you still want to be outside. For this, he pays $600 a month.
This, just steps from the exclusive and Ohio-boosting Negy Gallery, where customers aren’t so much walk-ins as they are fly-ins, and by fly-ins we’re talking private jets from far away. They come to ogle the fascinating Elijah Pierce folk art collection as well as emerging work from various present-day Ohio artists, of which there are plenty."
