The Judy Black Memorial Park and Gardens is pleased to welcome an art exhibit featuring works by Terri Tibbatts. The exhibit, “A Still Life” will be on view beginning Friday, November 15.

An opening reception will be held at the park on Saturday, November 16 from 3 to 5 p.m.

The show highlights the artist’s ethereal archival digital photography of seasonal fruits, vegetables and flowers.

“I take my inspiration from many sources,” Tibbatts remarks. “Dutch still life paintings, Japanese screens, scrolls and wood blocks, the sketchbooks of herbalists and naturalists, botanical prints and a multitude of gardens.” 

For much of this body of work that will be on display at the park, Tibbatts largely used a horizontal landscape orientation. For some of the backgrounds, she used painted papers she recently made in a class with Suzanne Moore, book artist and calligrapher. 

The exhibit will be on view through Sunday, December 1. Check our social media for weekly open hours: @judyblackpark on Instagram and Facebook.

Torrington City Hall Hosts "Made In Torrington" Exhibit, Showcasing Local Industry and Artistry

The exhibit is open to the public in the City Hall Auditorium during normal hours when meetings are not in session.

Following a successful exhibit at Five Points Annex earlier this year, a curated selection from the original 65 works of local photographer Katina Hungerford are showcased at City Hall in the auditorium throughout October and November. This continuation of the “Made In Torrington” exhibit is curated and overseen by William Haygood, a key figure in Torrington's vibrant arts community, a member of Torrington's Arts and Culture Commission, Five Points Arts Facilities Manager, and art curator for City Hall.

"Made In Torrington" is a black-and-white, documentary-style photo exhibit dedicated to the workers, artisans, and everyday local heroes who make the Northwest corner of Connecticut an extraordinary haven of hard work, inspiration, and innovation. This project captures Torrington's hardworking spirit, bridging labor and artistry through striking portraits. Featured in the exhibit are craftsmen and women at work across various iconic Torrington locations, including O&G Industries at the new high school construction site, RBC Bearings, Iffland Lumber, The Nutmeg Conservatory for The Arts, WAPJ Radio Station, City Hall, Colonial Bronze, Liberty Art and Framing, Center Congregational Church, and The Venetian Restaurant. Each image reflects the pride and dedication of Torrington’s people, often working behind the scenes to keep the city thriving.

Several pieces from the collection will also be on display at local venues during the exhibit’s run. Upon the completion of the exhibit series, the full body of work will be donated to the Torrington Historical Society, ensuring this powerful visual documentation of Torrington’s industrious spirit is preserved for future generations.

About the Artist: Katina Hungerford is a renowned photographer and local artist who grew up in Torrington and resides in the city with her musician husband, Steven McGrath. With the support of a microgrant from the Northwest CT Arts Council, The City of Torrington, and The American Rescue Plan Act, Katina has documented the hardworking spirit of Torrington in “Made In Torrington.”

For more information about the Made In Torrington Art Exhibit, including a full schedule of events, please visit the digital exhibit on Facebook at facebook.com/madeintorrington or contact Katina Hungerford at katina@hungerford.marketing.

Connections: an exhibit of oil and mixed media by the artists Souby Boski and Karen Simmons.

Souby Boski has been an Art teacher in the Connecticut public schools and Adjunct Professor of Art at Naugatuck Valley Community College. Since 2004, she has been teaching painting and ceramics at area art education venues in CT, NY, MA and Florida. Souby holds a BA in Art Education from Stetson University and a MALS in Art from Wesleyan University. She has studied painting with nationally recognized artists and teachers, like Eric Aho, Ira Barkoff, Lois Dodd and Ruth Miller.

Karen Simmons grew up in France, London and Brussels. Her parents were friends with several contemporary artists, from whom she absorbed a love of all things beautiful into the most humble of daily details. She holds a BA in Art History and Studio Art from Williams College and a Master in Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania. Karen has studied painting under Ira Barkoff and Eric Aho, sculpture under Mary Adams and John Reideman.

Karen states: "the "Connections" of this show continue and get personal, especially in my still-lives, which often include familial objects, many from my mother's collection. My still-lives build on each other by including the same objects, also prior still life paintings that become abstracted objects, paintings of my studio "object libraries" and finally, sometimes, abstractions of the still life itself."

Both artists have participated in many exhibitions as well as in group shows all over Litchfield County and beyond.

For over 18 years, Karen and Souby have been connected through painting, classes, teaching, volunteering and friendship. The exhibition is a result of the dialog between these women as they work to explore painting through color and abstraction.

The New Milford Library will hold an exhibit of a collection of photographs from New Milford's own Ruth and Skitch Henderson's, Hunt Hill Farm (also known as The Silo). The photos show moments from Skitch's life in the worlds of music and television, along with some folks he worked with.

The exhibit will run from Saturday, November 9th through Thursday, January 2nd, with an opening reception on November 9th at 2pm. All are welcome.

September 8, 2024 – January 5, 2025

For the first time, Poskas: Father and Son brings together the artwork of Waterbury natives Peter Poskas II and his son Peter Poskas III. Poskas II is known for painting realist views of Connecticut cities and landscapes, exploring conditions of weather and light on his subjects. Dedicated to realist still lifes before a life-altering accident, Poskas III has recently turned his attention to impressionistic views of the land, animals, and buildings surrounding his Washington, CT farm. A wide-ranging retrospective of late-career Poskas II, and mid-career Poskas III, this exhibition not only speaks to the body of work of both artists, but also tracks how their relationship has changed, grown, and deepened over time through the lens of their artwork.

Wednesdays from 11 am - 4 pm Create Escape Studio will be open for walk in artists to come in and be creative.

Select from:

• Paint your own Pottery
• Fused Glass Canvas
• Painting Wooden decorations
• Canvas Painting
• Fused Glass
• Mosaics
• Hand Building with Clay
• Stoneware glazing

Occasionally we will offer special programs and projects featuring specific techniques, in addition to open studio.

Please RSVP so that we know you are coming. Your $15 reservation fee will be applied to the cost of your project for the day.

If no artists are in the studio at 2 pm we may close up early.

Known primarily for his cartoons and his novels, Steiner’s paintings and drawings can be comic, surrealist, romantic, and fantastic—hence the title of the exhibition, “All Over the Place.”  The artist recently said that he is “unschooled as an artist. The disadvantage in that is that I was never taught how to paint. I taught myself, and some of what I taught myself was wrong. Happily, that is also the advantage. I am disciplined about how I paint, but not about what or when I paint: I do it how and when I want.” 

 A reception for the artist will take place at the library on Saturday, November 2, from 4PM to 6 PM. In conjunction with the exhibition, Steiner will give an art talk on Thursday, November 21 from 5:30 to 7PM.

Every Wednesday | 2:30-4 PM

Teens can hang out with friends at the Mattatuck Museum, try a relaxing craft, get creative with graphic design, or chill on a beanbag!

The Gunn Memorial Library is pleased to present "Cover Stories & Cityscapes," an exhibition by Susan Lerner on display from September 28th through November 23rd, 2024. This exhibition showcases a captivating collection of hand-cut collages that blend vintage narratives with contemporary artistry.

"Cover Stories & Cityscapes” weaves together two series of hand cut collages, each rooted in the exploration of materials and the stories they hold. "Cover Stories" transforms forgotten vintage books into striking three-dimensional vignettes by deconstructing their volumes and enriching them with vintage illustrations and found photographs, evoking nostalgia and transporting viewers to another time and place. Inspired by a serendipitous flea market find of early 1900s NYC postcards, “Cityscapes" blends these historical fragments with hand-cut maps and vintage imagery. Each collage is named after places or vernacular associated with New York City.

Susan is a New York City and Washington, CT based contemporary hand-cut collage artist. In her prior profession as a Certified Flavor Chemist, Susan ‘collaged’ chemicals into unique flavors, but now she uses paper as her medium. She loves the collage process, finding joy in the hunt for imagery, meditation in cutting paper and delight in creating nostalgic compositions. Since 2017, she has shown her work in six solo shows in New York City and Northwest Connecticut and over 35 group shows including Norway, Germany and Paris. Her work has been published in numerous periodicals including “Collage Care Transforming Emotions and Life Experiences with Collage” by Laurie Kanyer and its companion book, “Collage Care, the Method”. She is the co-founder of the New York Collage Ensemble which promotes a supportive community of like-minded analog collage artists in NYC.

This very popular preschool arts and crafts program uses every imaginable medium to stir the creative impulse in your child. Parents and children will have fun finger painting, gluing and creating together! Each week your child will bring home several themed-based projects. Children should wear an old shirt or art smock. 

Parents, please bring a bag or box to transport projects home.

Known primarily for his cartoons and his novels, Steiner’s paintings and drawings can be comic, surrealist, romantic, and fantastic—hence the title of the exhibition, “All Over the Place.”  The artist recently said that he is “unschooled as an artist. The disadvantage in that is that I was never taught how to paint. I taught myself, and some of what I taught myself was wrong. Happily, that is also the advantage. I am disciplined about how I paint, but not about what or when I paint: I do it how and when I want.” 

 A reception for the artist will take place at the library on Saturday, November 2, from 4PM to 6 PM. In conjunction with the exhibition, Steiner will give an art talk on Thursday, November 21 from 5:30 to 7PM.

The New Milford Library will hold an exhibit of a collection of photographs from New Milford's own Ruth and Skitch Henderson's, Hunt Hill Farm (also known as The Silo). The photos show moments from Skitch's life in the worlds of music and television, along with some folks he worked with.

The exhibit will run from Saturday, November 9th through Thursday, January 2nd, with an opening reception on November 9th at 2pm. All are welcome.

For the first time, Poskas: Father and Son brings together the artwork of Waterbury natives Peter Poskas II and his son Peter Poskas III. Poskas II is known for painting realist views of Connecticut cities and landscapes, exploring conditions of weather and light on his subjects. Dedicated to realist still lifes before a life-altering accident, Poskas III has recently turned his attention to impressionistic views of the land, animals, and buildings surrounding his Washington, CT farm. A wide-ranging retrospective of late-career Poskas II, and mid-career Poskas III, this exhibition not only speaks to the body of work of both artists, but also tracks how their relationship has changed, grown, and deepened over time through the lens of their artwork.

Kenise Barnes Fine Art is pleased to announce an exhibition featuring contemporary landscape paintings and drawings. Immortalized in the 1800s by painters in the Hudson River School, the Hudson River Valley has been a rich source of inspiring forests, mountains, and vistas for artists. Point of view is the position from which something is observed; it is also the voice in which a story is told. The three artists in this show live and work in the region and continue this rich legacy. Their artwork tells the story of unique observation, impression, and interpretation.

Andrea Kantrowitz presents a new series of large-scale ink and brush artworks on Mylar. Hovering on the threshold between drawing and painting, they capture the forest’s intricate forms—twisting branches, layered foliage, vernal pools, and light filtering through the canopy above. Rather than literal representations, these pieces, six and seven feet tall, convey the immersive experience of being “among the trees,” as the poet Mary Oliver once wrote. The fluidity of ink captures both serenity and complexity, drawing viewers into the detailed, dense world of the forest.

Kantrowitz’s art evokes the meditative state of being "lost in the woods," inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, or “forest bathing.” As the images slowly come into focus for the viewer, the experience echoes the process of attuning to the hidden rhythms of the woodland. Her work translates the overwhelming density and richness of the natural world into a visual language that encourages contemplation, asking viewers to connect deeply with the environment and their own sense of presence within it.

Andrea Kantrowitz’s work has been exhibited throughout the world and is in many public and private collections. Her research has been widely published and she is a sought-after educator and speaker. Kantrowitz earned her Ed.D from Columbia University Teachers College, she holds a BA in Art and Cognition from Harvard University and an MFA in Painting from Yale. She is the Director of the Art Education Program at the State University of New York at New Paltz. She has been represented by the gallery since 2005. Kantrowitz lives, hikes, draws, and paints in the Hudson Valley, NY.

David Konigsberg, an inveterate hiker, depends on the natural world for the captured and imagined drama in his paintings. Living in the upper Hudson Valley, which is still rural and agricultural, the artist is surrounded by mountains laced with foot trails; it is an ideal location for a painter whose compositions are a testament to the sweetness of lingering recollections and the introspective journeys they inspire. David Konigsberg’s work bridges the divide between art and real life in paintings that are both objective and conceptual and are a meditation on life and creativity.

David Konigsberg’s paintings focus on the places where nature and humanity meet. Konigsberg’s works bridge the divide between art and real life in semi-narrative paintings that are both objective and conceptual. His work occupies a netherworld of image and memory in his very personal narratives, which are not meant to be deciphered but experienced as emotional possibilities.

Konigsberg’s work has been exhibited throughout the United States and has been featured in the New York Times, Chronogram, Wall Street International, and Brooklyn Journal, as well as numerous art and culture blogs. Konigsberg has been represented by the gallery since 2007. The artist lives and works in Hudson, New York.

The paintings of Thomas Sarrantonio seek to mediate between realms of external perception and internal reflection. They present themselves as meditations on nature and self. Choosing humble, often overlooked subject matter such as a lone tree or the morning fog, he attempts to translate the dynamic processes of nature into the stasis of physical matter on a painted surface. Small oil paintings are produced directly from nature while large paintings are studio productions that utilize memory, experience, imagination and conceptual ideas to negotiate the terrain of contemporary painting. The paintings are offered to the viewer as templates to provoke active participation in the process of seeing and quiet contemplation of the act of consciousness.

Thomas Sarrantonio’s paintings have been exhibited widely and he is the recipient of numerous honors including a Pollock-Krasner Award and a Visiting Artist Residency in Normandy, France. Sarrantonio holds degrees in Biology and English. He studied Painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia, PA, where his teachers included Will Barnet and Sidney Goodman. He lives and works in Rosendale, NY.

Please contact Lani Holloway, Associate Director, Lani@kbfa.com, 860 560 3085 with inquires or to arrange a preview of the exhibition.

Connections: an exhibit of oil and mixed media by the artists Souby Boski and Karen Simmons.

Souby Boski has been an Art teacher in the Connecticut public schools and Adjunct Professor of Art at Naugatuck Valley Community College. Since 2004, she has been teaching painting and ceramics at area art education venues in CT, NY, MA and Florida. Souby holds a BA in Art Education from Stetson University and a MALS in Art from Wesleyan University. She has studied painting with nationally recognized artists and teachers, like Eric Aho, Ira Barkoff, Lois Dodd and Ruth Miller.

Karen Simmons grew up in France, London and Brussels. Her parents were friends with several contemporary artists, from whom she absorbed a love of all things beautiful into the most humble of daily details. She holds a BA in Art History and Studio Art from Williams College and a Master in Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania. Karen has studied painting under Ira Barkoff and Eric Aho, sculpture under Mary Adams and John Reideman.

Karen states: "the "Connections" of this show continue and get personal, especially in my still-lives, which often include familial objects, many from my mother's collection. My still-lives build on each other by including the same objects, also prior still life paintings that become abstracted objects, paintings of my studio "object libraries" and finally, sometimes, abstractions of the still life itself."

Both artists have participated in many exhibitions as well as in group shows all over Litchfield County and beyond.

For over 18 years, Karen and Souby have been connected through painting, classes, teaching, volunteering and friendship. The exhibition is a result of the dialog between these women as they work to explore painting through color and abstraction.

Bring your lunch, listen to stories, and enjoy a fun craft! All are welcome, this program is intended for preschool-aged children. This event will be offered in person in the Junior Room of the Library.

Registration is appreciated but not required.

The Nowhere Girls

By Amy Reed

Three misfits come together to avenge the rape of a fellow classmate and in the process trigger a change in the misogynist culture at their high school transforming the lives of everyone around them in this searing and timely story.

Who are the Nowhere Girls?

They’re everygirl. But they start with just three:

Grace Salter is the new girl in town, whose family was run out of their former community after her southern Baptist preacher mom turned into a radical liberal after falling off a horse and bumping her head.

Rosina Suarez is the queer punk girl in a conservative Mexican immigrant family, who dreams of a life playing music instead of babysitting her gaggle of cousins and waitressing at her uncle’s restaurant.

Erin Delillo is obsessed with two things: marine biology and Star Trek: The Next Generation, but they aren’t enough to distract her from her suspicion that she may in fact be an android.

When Grace learns that Lucy Moynihan, the former occupant of her new home, was run out of town for having accused the popular guys at school of gang rape, she’s incensed that Lucy never had justice. For their own personal reasons, Rosina and Erin feel equally deeply about Lucy’s tragedy, so they form an anonymous group of girls at Prescott High to resist the sexist culture at their school, which includes boycotting sex of any kind with the male students.

Told in alternating perspectives, this groundbreaking novel is an indictment of rape culture and explores with bold honesty the deepest questions about teen girls and sexuality.

Marta Molnar’s The Secret Life of Sunflowers will be discussed this month. All are welcome to join.

When Hollywood auctioneer Emsley Wilson finds her famous grandmother's diary while cleaning out her New York brownstone, the pages are full of surprises. The first surprise is the diary isn't her grandmother's. It belongs to Johanna Bonger, Vincent van Gogh's sister-in-law.

Johanna inherited Vincent van Gogh's paintings. They were all she had, and they weren't worth anything. In the 1800s, she was a 28-year-old widow with a baby, without any means of supporting herself, living in Paris, where she barely spoke the language. Yet she managed to introduce Vincent's legacy to the world.

The inspiration couldn't come at a better time for Emsley. With her business failing, an unexpected love turning up in her life, and family secrets unraveling, can she find answers in the past?

The Judy Black Memorial Park and Gardens is pleased to welcome an art exhibit featuring works by Terri Tibbatts. The exhibit, “A Still Life” will be on view beginning Friday, November 15.

An opening reception will be held at the park on Saturday, November 16 from 3 to 5 p.m.

The show highlights the artist’s ethereal archival digital photography of seasonal fruits, vegetables and flowers.

“I take my inspiration from many sources,” Tibbatts remarks. “Dutch still life paintings, Japanese screens, scrolls and wood blocks, the sketchbooks of herbalists and naturalists, botanical prints and a multitude of gardens.” 

For much of this body of work that will be on display at the park, Tibbatts largely used a horizontal landscape orientation. For some of the backgrounds, she used painted papers she recently made in a class with Suzanne Moore, book artist and calligrapher. 

The exhibit will be on view through Sunday, December 1. Check our social media for weekly open hours: @judyblackpark on Instagram and Facebook.

Torrington City Hall Hosts "Made In Torrington" Exhibit, Showcasing Local Industry and Artistry

The exhibit is open to the public in the City Hall Auditorium during normal hours when meetings are not in session.

Following a successful exhibit at Five Points Annex earlier this year, a curated selection from the original 65 works of local photographer Katina Hungerford are showcased at City Hall in the auditorium throughout October and November. This continuation of the “Made In Torrington” exhibit is curated and overseen by William Haygood, a key figure in Torrington's vibrant arts community, a member of Torrington's Arts and Culture Commission, Five Points Arts Facilities Manager, and art curator for City Hall.

"Made In Torrington" is a black-and-white, documentary-style photo exhibit dedicated to the workers, artisans, and everyday local heroes who make the Northwest corner of Connecticut an extraordinary haven of hard work, inspiration, and innovation. This project captures Torrington's hardworking spirit, bridging labor and artistry through striking portraits. Featured in the exhibit are craftsmen and women at work across various iconic Torrington locations, including O&G Industries at the new high school construction site, RBC Bearings, Iffland Lumber, The Nutmeg Conservatory for The Arts, WAPJ Radio Station, City Hall, Colonial Bronze, Liberty Art and Framing, Center Congregational Church, and The Venetian Restaurant. Each image reflects the pride and dedication of Torrington’s people, often working behind the scenes to keep the city thriving.

Several pieces from the collection will also be on display at local venues during the exhibit’s run. Upon the completion of the exhibit series, the full body of work will be donated to the Torrington Historical Society, ensuring this powerful visual documentation of Torrington’s industrious spirit is preserved for future generations.

About the Artist: Katina Hungerford is a renowned photographer and local artist who grew up in Torrington and resides in the city with her musician husband, Steven McGrath. With the support of a microgrant from the Northwest CT Arts Council, The City of Torrington, and The American Rescue Plan Act, Katina has documented the hardworking spirit of Torrington in “Made In Torrington.”

For more information about the Made In Torrington Art Exhibit, including a full schedule of events, please visit the digital exhibit on Facebook at facebook.com/madeintorrington or contact Katina Hungerford at katina@hungerford.marketing.

The Gunn Memorial Library is pleased to present "Cover Stories & Cityscapes," an exhibition by Susan Lerner on display from September 28th through November 23rd, 2024. This exhibition showcases a captivating collection of hand-cut collages that blend vintage narratives with contemporary artistry.

"Cover Stories & Cityscapes” weaves together two series of hand cut collages, each rooted in the exploration of materials and the stories they hold. "Cover Stories" transforms forgotten vintage books into striking three-dimensional vignettes by deconstructing their volumes and enriching them with vintage illustrations and found photographs, evoking nostalgia and transporting viewers to another time and place. Inspired by a serendipitous flea market find of early 1900s NYC postcards, “Cityscapes" blends these historical fragments with hand-cut maps and vintage imagery. Each collage is named after places or vernacular associated with New York City.

Susan is a New York City and Washington, CT based contemporary hand-cut collage artist. In her prior profession as a Certified Flavor Chemist, Susan ‘collaged’ chemicals into unique flavors, but now she uses paper as her medium. She loves the collage process, finding joy in the hunt for imagery, meditation in cutting paper and delight in creating nostalgic compositions. Since 2017, she has shown her work in six solo shows in New York City and Northwest Connecticut and over 35 group shows including Norway, Germany and Paris. Her work has been published in numerous periodicals including “Collage Care Transforming Emotions and Life Experiences with Collage” by Laurie Kanyer and its companion book, “Collage Care, the Method”. She is the co-founder of the New York Collage Ensemble which promotes a supportive community of like-minded analog collage artists in NYC.

The New Milford Library will hold an exhibit of a collection of photographs from New Milford's own Ruth and Skitch Henderson's, Hunt Hill Farm (also known as The Silo). The photos show moments from Skitch's life in the worlds of music and television, along with some folks he worked with.

The exhibit will run from Saturday, November 9th through Thursday, January 2nd, with an opening reception on November 9th at 2pm. All are welcome.

Connections: an exhibit of oil and mixed media by the artists Souby Boski and Karen Simmons.

Since 2004, she has been teaching painting and ceramics at area art education venues in CT, NY, MA and Florida. Souby holds a BA in Art Education from Stetson University and a MALS in Art from Wesleyan University. She has studied painting with nationally recognized artists and teachers, like Eric Aho, Ira Barkoff, Lois Dodd and Ruth Miller.

Karen Simmons grew up in France, London and Brussels. Her parents were friends with several contemporary artists, from whom she absorbed a love of all things beautiful into the most humble of daily details. She holds a BA in Art History and Studio Art from Williams College and a Master in Architecture from the University of Pennsylvania. Karen has studied painting under Ira Barkoff and Eric Aho, sculpture under Mary Adams and John Reideman.

Karen states: "the "Connections" of this show continue and get personal, especially in my still-lives, which often include familial objects, many from my mother's collection. My still-lives build on each other by including the same objects, also prior still life paintings that become abstracted objects, paintings of my studio "object libraries" and finally, sometimes, abstractions of the still life itself."

Both artists have participated in many exhibitions as well as in group shows all over Litchfield County and beyond.

For over 18 years, Karen and Souby have been connected through painting, classes, teaching, volunteering and friendship. The exhibition is a result of the dialog between these women as they work to explore painting through color and abstraction.

For the first time, Poskas: Father and Son brings together the artwork of Waterbury natives Peter Poskas II and his son Peter Poskas III. Poskas II is known for painting realist views of Connecticut cities and landscapes, exploring conditions of weather and light on his subjects. Dedicated to realist still lifes before a life-altering accident, Poskas III has recently turned his attention to impressionistic views of the land, animals, and buildings surrounding his Washington, CT farm. A wide-ranging retrospective of late-career Poskas II, and mid-career Poskas III, this exhibition not only speaks to the body of work of both artists, but also tracks how their relationship has changed, grown, and deepened over time through the lens of their artwork.

Kenise Barnes Fine Art is pleased to announce an exhibition featuring contemporary landscape paintings and drawings. Immortalized in the 1800s by painters in the Hudson River School, the Hudson River Valley has been a rich source of inspiring forests, mountains, and vistas for artists. Point of view is the position from which something is observed; it is also the voice in which a story is told. The three artists in this show live and work in the region and continue this rich legacy. Their artwork tells the story of unique observation, impression, and interpretation.

Andrea Kantrowitz presents a new series of large-scale ink and brush artworks on Mylar. Hovering on the threshold between drawing and painting, they capture the forest’s intricate forms—twisting branches, layered foliage, vernal pools, and light filtering through the canopy above. Rather than literal representations, these pieces, six and seven feet tall, convey the immersive experience of being “among the trees,” as the poet Mary Oliver once wrote. The fluidity of ink captures both serenity and complexity, drawing viewers into the detailed, dense world of the forest.

Kantrowitz’s art evokes the meditative state of being "lost in the woods," inspired by the Japanese practice of Shinrin-Yoku, or “forest bathing.” As the images slowly come into focus for the viewer, the experience echoes the process of attuning to the hidden rhythms of the woodland. Her work translates the overwhelming density and richness of the natural world into a visual language that encourages contemplation, asking viewers to connect deeply with the environment and their own sense of presence within it.

Andrea Kantrowitz’s work has been exhibited throughout the world and is in many public and private collections. Her research has been widely published and she is a sought-after educator and speaker. Kantrowitz earned her Ed.D from Columbia University Teachers College, she holds a BA in Art and Cognition from Harvard University and an MFA in Painting from Yale. She is the Director of the Art Education Program at the State University of New York at New Paltz. She has been represented by the gallery since 2005. Kantrowitz lives, hikes, draws, and paints in the Hudson Valley, NY.

David Konigsberg, an inveterate hiker, depends on the natural world for the captured and imagined drama in his paintings. Living in the upper Hudson Valley, which is still rural and agricultural, the artist is surrounded by mountains laced with foot trails; it is an ideal location for a painter whose compositions are a testament to the sweetness of lingering recollections and the introspective journeys they inspire. David Konigsberg’s work bridges the divide between art and real life in paintings that are both objective and conceptual and are a meditation on life and creativity.

David Konigsberg’s paintings focus on the places where nature and humanity meet. Konigsberg’s works bridge the divide between art and real life in semi-narrative paintings that are both objective and conceptual. His work occupies a netherworld of image and memory in his very personal narratives, which are not meant to be deciphered but experienced as emotional possibilities.

Konigsberg’s work has been exhibited throughout the United States and has been featured in the New York Times, Chronogram, Wall Street International, and Brooklyn Journal, as well as numerous art and culture blogs. Konigsberg has been represented by the gallery since 2007. The artist lives and works in Hudson, New York.

The paintings of Thomas Sarrantonio seek to mediate between realms of external perception and internal reflection. They present themselves as meditations on nature and self. Choosing humble, often overlooked subject matter such as a lone tree or the morning fog, he attempts to translate the dynamic processes of nature into the stasis of physical matter on a painted surface. Small oil paintings are produced directly from nature while large paintings are studio productions that utilize memory, experience, imagination and conceptual ideas to negotiate the terrain of contemporary painting. The paintings are offered to the viewer as templates to provoke active participation in the process of seeing and quiet contemplation of the act of consciousness.

Thomas Sarrantonio’s paintings have been exhibited widely and he is the recipient of numerous honors including a Pollock-Krasner Award and a Visiting Artist Residency in Normandy, France. Sarrantonio holds degrees in Biology and English. He studied Painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia, PA, where his teachers included Will Barnet and Sidney Goodman. He lives and works in Rosendale, NY.

Known primarily for his cartoons and his novels, Steiner’s paintings and drawings can be comic, surrealist, romantic, and fantastic—hence the title of the exhibition, “All Over the Place.”  The artist recently said that he is “unschooled as an artist. The disadvantage in that is that I was never taught how to paint. I taught myself, and some of what I taught myself was wrong. Happily, that is also the advantage. I am disciplined about how I paint, but not about what or when I paint: I do it how and when I want.” 

 A reception for the artist will take place at the library on Saturday, November 2, from 4PM to 6 PM. In conjunction with the exhibition, Steiner will give an art talk on Thursday, November 21 from 5:30 to 7PM.

Please join master calligrapher Awrang and master ceramist Malikzada at Five Points from Nov 22 to Dec 3 for a show of their latest works as they celebrate another year of being Thankful for the friends and community who have helped them rebuild their practices as artists.

“World Classic” is what happens when you take the quintessential American domestic drama away from white suburbia. It explores the identity issues created by assimilation through the eyes of two generations of an immigrant family. Like “The Humans” or “August Osage County” before it, it all takes place during one night, but unlike them, this play focus on those that had to sacrifice their homeland and in the process, compromise their heritage.

It’s 1979, and New York’s hottest A-listers are lining up for the opening of a floating casino discotheque. What begins as a night of boogie fever quickly changes to panic as the ship succumbs to multiple disasters, such as earthquakes, tidal waves and infernos. As the night turns into day, everyone struggles to survive and, quite possibly, repair the love that they’ve lost… or at least escape the killer rats. This hysterical musical comedy will have you laughing (and singing) from start to finish!
