2010 Juried Artist Series: Remembrances
September 3rd thru 25th, 2010
Opening Reception: Friday, Septemer 3rd, 6pm - 10pm
Gallery Hours: Monday thru Friday 10am to 5pm, Saturday 12 to 5pm
The Allied Arts
2010 Juried Artist series continues with "Remembrances” featuring Ann
Chaikin and Jeanne Levasseur. The public is invited to the opening night
celebration at the Allied Arts Gallery and the Downtown Art Walk:
Friday September 3rd, from 6pm to 10pm. There will be an Exhibit
Walk-Thru with the artists from 6pm to 7pm on opening night.
Both the artists
in this show depict moments and places frozen in time and convey the
emotions of these places through oil paint and photography
Ann Chaikin’s work
shown will consist of both photographs and paintings of the vacant
Georgia Pacific site here on the Bellingham waterfront. Ann has been a
photographer most of her life and many of her oil paintings come from
the photographs she has taken. She decided to put together this body of
work because of the importance of the Georgia Pacific plant in the
history of Bellingham and its new role as a waterfront area of town that
is still evolving.
Many of Jeanne
Levasseur’s oil paintings are an internal reflection, depicting a scene
or a moment in time, of the places she has traveled. She is particularly
inspired and awed by the striking terrain as well as the tumultuous and
temperamental skies of the Pacific Northwest. When beginning a
painting, she initially relies on "plein-air”, photographs and memory,
but shortly thereafter, spontaneity and intuition take over to become
integral components of the process.
In conjunction
with this show, Allied Arts’ new Inside the Box Series will feature work
from Karin Mueller. Karin creates mixed media two and three dimensional
works using found objects to create whimsical home décor items.
This show will run
from September 3rd to 24th. Allied Arts is a non-profit gallery,
proceeds from sales go to support the arts in our community.
