Easthampton Clay Gallery: Featured Artist Juli Kirk
2022-06-03 17:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | Easthampton Clay Gallery, 116 Pleasant St, Suite #116, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
Easthampton Clay is a new and growing ceramics community in western Massachusetts with a large, well-equipped studio space that is shared by a diverse group of ceramic artists and potters. Join us as we open the doors of our gallery space for an opening reception celebrating the work of our featured artist, Juli Kirk. You’ll get an opportunity to talk with Juli about their work and get a free Easthampton Clay magnet.
Heres what Juli has to say:
I have spent the majority of my artistic career as an oil painter. When EHC opened 3 1/2 years ago I was one of its earliest members. I immediately got sucked into the joy of pot making. As I experimented, I became increasingly bewildered and excited by the endless possibilities of this new medium. My most recent experiments are adventuring into figurative sculpture. I hope this is just the beginning of a long ceramic journey.

Wild & Precious: the Exhibit
2022-06-03 17:00 - 20:00 | Elusie Gallery at Big Red Frame, 43 Main Street, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States

How Do Your People Call Earth? - JuPong Lin
2022-06-03 17:00 - 20:00 | Old Town Hall, 43 Main Street, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
This community-engaged performance was first initiated in 2016 by JuPong Lin with
Nicole Oxendine, in response to the removal of many “nature” words from the Oxford
Junior Dictionary. Words that replaced the removed words included; blog, broadband,
chatroom, celebrity, voicemail.
This project resists the values expressed in the decision to replace names of animal and
plant beings with “technological” words. We honor the language and names of our
animal, plant and fungal kin and will speak and write their names in all the many
languages spoken in every part of the Earth.
This community-engaged project offers a way for Earthbeing lovers to insist on the vital
need to keep alive the names by which we call Earth, Wind, Water, Sun & Fire, and all
the many diverse beings who live and move with each other in relationship with our
Beloved Earth. We create a ceremonial space to recover the “lost words” by which we
call our earth and our nonhuman kin.
You can contribute to the project with paperfolds of canoes, cranes or horseshoe crabs
and/or responding to the poetrywriting prompts below. Throughout the month of June
you can deliver these contributions in-person to CitySpace, 43 Main Street,
Easthampton, MA 01027. There are pins in a shell on the floor to attach your piece to
the curtain. Or you can mail your piece to CitySpace and JuPong will attach it.
If you missed the workshop where JuPong facilitated practices of Earth connection
through qigong, poetry and paperfolding, you can view video of a previous workshop on
youtube, with an instructional poem on the canoe fold.

“The Way Out Is Through: A reflection on the time of Covid” by Jen Turner

Contact Jason Montgomery 860-214-6214 for 50 Arrow Gallery.

Join us starting today as we welcome our 3rd solo of the season. We are proud to present “The Way Out Is Through: A reflection on the time of Covid” by Jen Turner.

“When beginning a piece, I start by curating a collection of images that speak to me. The images that inspire me belong in nature’s life cycle – lush green landscapes, ocean waves, decaying buildings, people living. Choosing from these images, I am layering them in a way that makes visual sense to my eye. Certain everyday items may become focal points, fantastical images in others. I leave the piece open to the interpretation of the viewer and encourage discussion of the layers of the piece. “

Intention, Christine Hartman
2022-07-01 18:00 - 20:00 | City-Wide, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
I intend for each work to have its own reality, presence, to find that in nature, to develop it in the painting.
As I work, the painting must come to direct my choices by its needs.
I intend for the drawing to be graceful and complete. Lines moving magically through the space they simultaneously create.
I intend for the color to be luminous, to have paint become light.
That would be great.
That is what I am working toward.
“Creativity is intelligence having fun.” Albert Einstein

Easthampton Clay Gallery: Featured Artist Lexie Burke
2022-09-02 17:00 - 20:00 | Easthampton Clay Gallery, 116 Pleasant St, Suite #116, Easthampton, 01027, United States
Easthampton Clay is a new and growing ceramics community with a large, well-equipped studio space that is shared by a diverse group of ceramic artists and potters. Come to our gallery opening reception celebrating the work of featured member artist, Lexie Burke! You’ll get an opportunity to talk with Lexie about their work and discover the work of over 20 member artists.
Here’s what Lexie has to say:
My names Lexie and I’m a painter turned Potter. In 2019 I picked up a paint brush for the first time in over a decade and it’s the best thing I ever did for myself. Since then art and pottery have truly been therapy to me. There’s something about the world getting quiet and your mind shutting off that makes it so peaceful. I love making bright pottery pieces with color and I tend to always make mugs. (Probably my tea drinking habit, there’s something so comforting about a nice pottery mug). My paintings tend to change on the pottery from what season it is, whether it’s ocean or Halloween, etc. It’s nice because each functional mug comes with a unique hand painted art piece!

Before Color - Photographs by Peter Schlessinger
2022-09-02 17:00 - 20:00 | Oxbow Art Gallery, 40 Cottage Street, Easthampton, MA, 01027, United States
Peter entered creative photography more than 50 years ago at a time when color imagery was generally seen as commercial and vulgar, while the “purity” of the black-to-white tonal spectrum was felt (somewhat paradoxically) better-suited to both: a) the artistic-aesthetic transmission of meaning — and b) the pursuit of documentary objectivity. It was in the exploration of both those aspects that he first found my creative footing.

Foundations— Geometry, Color, and Other Curious Phenomena, KC Scott
2022-09-02 17:00 - 20:00 | Oxbow Gallery, 273 Pleasant St, Northampton, MA, 01060, United States
The Exhibition contains drawings, paintings, Digital works, and archival prints completed over the course of 55 years.
KC Scott returned to art full time following a nearly 50 year career in graphics and advertising. Educated at the Art Institute of Chicago, Yale University, School of Visual arts (NYC), he holds an MFA from University of Massachusetts. His work has been shown locally in the Valley and in New York City. He has been a member of the Oxbow Gallery since 2017.
Scott says “Geometry, color, symmetry, periodicity, mathematical constants, and mathematical oddities such as the Fibonacci sequence— I find these building blocks of perception and understanding endlessly fascinating. Wherever my wandering creativity takes me— from realism to abstraction, whimsy or introspection, even to the farthest reaches of conceptual art, these foundational elements are the fertile ground to which I have always returned.”
