Now\, in the challenging decade of the 2020s\, adventurous artists working in diverse media are coming together at this Gallery Sitka show to interpret\, question\, and honor old Mother Earth in all her fascinating complexity and beauty. \n“The artists were all asked to consider how they\, as human beings\, were connected to Nature\,” explains Beth Barry\, the show’s curator. “All the canvases must be no larger than 20 by 20\, and all artists were asked for a minimum of three paintings.” More than 50 artists answered the call. \n“I’ve been curating for about ten years\,” says Ms. Barry\, “and I’ve been working with Tamar for seven or eight years.” Gallery Sitka owner Tamar Russell Brown has produced Earth Day shows before\, and she enjoys the tremendous enthusiasm and insight that Ms. Barry brings to the work of curation. \nView the show on Artsy\nRead the PR URL:https://gallerysitka.com/event/our-connection-with-nature-earth-day-2021/ LOCATION:Gallery Sitka East\, 2 Shaker Road\, Suite D101\, Shirley\, MA\, 01464 CATEGORIES:Shirley,Show ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://gallerysitka.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/LindaCuccurullo_OceanBlue_Photography_8x10-11x14_2020_250_web.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20211015 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20211201 DTSTAMP:20241120T173405Z CREATED:20241120T173405Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241120T173405Z UID:43012-1634256000-1638316799@gallerysitka.com SUMMARY:Kate Shaffer – October 2021 DESCRIPTION:“Air” by Kate Shaffer\n“Music and color inspire me. As I listen to music\, colors emerge and begin to dance in my mind. Each type of music requires different colors. Even within one genre\, the colors can be quite different depending on the mood of the music. This series deals with calming classical music. The colors reflect the peacefulness I want to evoke.\nAbstraction allows me to express the emotions that motivate my painting. Colors and movement give voice to those emotions. I develop a language as I progress through the paintings and hope you can feel the emotion and see the music as I do.\nI choose my materials for the great freedom of expression they allow. Acrylics dry quickly\, but can also be worked wet in wet for blended colors. Brushes\, palette knives\, even my hands – each tool offers a different mark and a different form of expression. As I work wet in wet\, the colors naturally begin to blend and layers of color are introduced. Marks reveal under-layers and lines. Color becomes my partner as I dance across the canvas with the music.\nThe marks I make emphasize the movement of the music. The colors combine to create the feeling. They mix and mingle as the notes do\, creating harmony. Let your eyes move to the rhythm of each piece.” \nView the show on Artsy\n  URL:https://gallerysitka.com/event/kate-shaffer-october-2021/ LOCATION:Gallery Sitka East\, 2 Shaker Road\, Suite D101\, Shirley\, MA\, 01464 CATEGORIES:Shirley,Show ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://gallerysitka.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/KateShaffer_Air_Mixed-Media-on-Canas_20x20_495.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210115 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210302 DTSTAMP:20241120T171258Z CREATED:20241120T171258Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241120T171258Z UID:43003-1610668800-1614643199@gallerysitka.com SUMMARY:Under the Bed – “What Is Old Is New Again”\, CWA Group Show DESCRIPTION:“Hartford AbstractIon III” by Susan Wadsworth\n“What is old is new again” is the theme of an online group exhibit entitled “Under the Bed\,” in which the artists have selected their favorite work.
