OOPS! FORGOT TO PUSH THE BUTTON
ANIMAL HEART EXHIBITION AT THE SLATER MUSEUM |
If you are on the shoreline this weekend you can stop into the Slater Museum in Norwich for the last day of the Animal Heart exhibition. The exhibition was put together by artist/sculptor Randell Nelson and Museum Director Vivian Zoe. They put together a great group of artists and I'm glad to be included among them.The show is loosely connected to the Passenger Pigeon Project that is going across the country this year to raise awareness on the extinction of species.This year marks the 100 anniversary of the passing of "Martha" our last known living Passenger pigeon.
I am also in the Farm Winery Bistro ll exhibition of Six Summit Gallery held at the Chamard Vineyards in Clinton Connecticut. Dina Brodsky and Cara De Angelis,represented by Six Summit Gallery, are also showing at the Slate Museum show. Gorgeous Works! Go check them out!
Here's some phone pics from the Slater opening.

FROM THE SLATER
On View
June 15 through August 10, 2014
Opening Reception: Sunday, June 15,
1:00-3:00 pm
The Slater Museum will present The
Animal Heart, a special invitational exhibition featuring Connecticut artists
whose work focuses on the relationships between animals, humans and their
environment. Work by thirty artists including noted artist, writer and
illustrator James Prosek, Cara DeAngelis, Bill Gusky, Karen Israel, Dan Riccio
and Eleanor Miller will be presented June 15 through August 10, 2014.
The exhibition will include work in myriad media, styles and messages from traditional to experimental, realist to fantastic and serious to whimsical. James Prosek is known for his highly studied and detailed representations of insects, fish and birds. Much of his work combines species in what otherwise resemble the work of John James Audubon. Cara DeAngelis' work has the look of hyper-realist children's book illustration until the viewer notices that singular element of the sinister edge. Dan Riccio's cast metal sculpture will add a jewel-like element to the installation.
