Summer 2012, opening Thursday, June 28!

Eric March, "The Destruction of the Vinegar Hill Power Plant"

Sam Goodsell, "Threshold"

All the awesome contemporary realist art you could hope for is now at a fabulous historic storefront near you. (as long as you happen to be near downtown North Adams, that is).  Never made it out to see our art space at the Beaver Mill?  Now we've made it easy for you.  Already a fan from our loft space, but you missed us all winter?  Us too.  Please come visit the newest little art gallery in downtown North Adams.

Bob Lafond, "Ghost Plane"

Last two days for "Re/Imaging New York"!

"Cement Park, the Bronx" Valeri Larko

The gallery will be open Sunday, 9/5 and Monday, Labor Day, 9/6.   Last chance to see "Re/Imaging New York", featuring paintings and drawings by Jaye Fox, Valeri Larko, Eric March and Thor Wickstrom.

"Queens Boulevard" Eric March

one painting's journey from a Brooklyn street to a North Adams gallery

One thing the painters in "Re/Imaging New York" (and, come to think of it, all of our other shows...) have in common is a tendency to paint on site. Along the way, they occasionally meet interesting people, mostly forklift drivers. Last week, however, Jaye Fox was working on a late addition to the gallery, and a Williamsburg art blogger snapped a shot of the infant piece, here, re-posted entirely without permission from it's original source at http://hragv.tumblr.com/post/977539226 : The final piece, "Landmark",  is the iconic Russian Orthodox church that presides over this little corner of Brooklyn.

It's conceived as a wry companion piece to "What Smell?", of the digester eggs at the Greenpoint sewage treatment plant, featured in an earlier post. Here's an installation shot of the two together:

"Re/Imaging New York"

July 31-September 6
Opening: July 31, 3-7pm
New York City has long been a rich source of inspiration for artists, but as artists move their homes and studios deeper into the outer boroughs, representations of the City as subject also changes. Years from now, will the soaring train trestles of South Brooklyn and the neon billboard jumble of Queens appear as iconic as the Manhattan skyline?  Featuring Eric March, Jaye Fox, Thor Wickstrom, and other artists to be named.
