"Based on Antonio di Benedetto's classic of Argentine literature, Lucrecia Martel's Zama is a beguiling, haunting, comic indictment of the ills of colonialism."


- Matthew Anderson, Cinevue
From Argentine film director Lucretia Martel comes the story of Don Diego de Zama, an 18th century officer of the Spanish Crown who spends years waiting for a transfer letter from the King that never comes.

Carla Munsat and Gallery Artists
"A Delicate Balance"
Carla Munsat

In this exhibition, Carla Munsat strikes a “delicate balance” between two very different kinds of work: acrylic paintings on panel and canvas, and collages using birch wood and mixed media. She says that “both are a highly personal search for a resolution. It is the search that excites me.”

While the paintings are about “change and life’s unpredictability,” the collages allow Munsat to explore found objects in terms of “texture, pattern, opacity, transparency, and surprise.” She is intrigued by the variations found in birch.

Created over the last three years, both the paintings and the collages focus on literally trying to put the pieces together. Featured in the exhibition are over a dozen 12”x12” paintings and two dozen 11”x14” birch collages.

Art Opening Reception

Meet the Artist 6-9 pm

Artist Statement:
For me artistic creation is a road that leads from thought, through search, to discovery. The goal is to make a painting that holds my interest, but the destination is not predetermined as the journey itself is of primary significance. This concept of the journey is a philosophical one that I have been drawn to for a very long time. It is a central theme found in literature, film, music and the visual arts. The journey motif defies time and the bounds of culture and I see an intrinsic power in it.

May 4th Deadline!

In response to the success of the 2015- 2017 Summer Sculpture Showcases, Gilbert Boro, owner and sculptor at Studio 80 + Sculpture Grounds, is pleased to announce Summer Sculpture Showcase 2018!
The Summer Sculpture Showcase, which will be on display from June 4th - October 26th 2018, is part of a year round outdoor sculptural exhibit on 4.5 acres of beautifully landscaped gardens located along the banks of the Lieutenant River in the historic, art-centric community of Old Lyme, Connecticut.
This 4th annual Summer Sculpture Showcase offers a unique opportunity for established artists to exhibit their work in an interactive location, while also effectively creating a new exhibition within the expansive Sculpture Gardens. This call for entry invites artists to submit up to four large or small-scale outdoor sculptural works, as well as proposals for site-specific/ecological installations. The deadline for submissions is May 4th, 2018 and artists will be notified of acceptance the second week of May 2018.
For submission information and a full prospectus, please visit our website www.sculpturegrounds. com.

We encourage you to participate and share this Call for Entry with your art community!

Thank you and we look forward to viewing your artwork!

Submissions can be made via our website.

Juried by Richard Sprengeler, this all media exhibition invites artists to submit works based on their use of a "colorless" palette.


ALL ENTRIES ARE DUE MAY 7
This all media exhibition invites artists to submit works based on their use of a "colorless" palette. Sometimes a monochrome palette can say more than a full spectrum of color and create a striking contrast. Artists are invited to share work that is composed of a majority of black, white, and all shades in between.









Greetings!

If you didn't get a chance to enter the 2018 CSF Symposium Exhibit, you still can.

 We've extended the deadline to Friday, May 11th!
CALL FOR ART

Entry Deadline: Friday, May 11th

Atrium Gallery, Rhode Island State Council on the Arts, 1 Capitol Hill, Providence RI




The original concept and vision was created by a Rhode Island neurosurgeon, Dr. Petra Klinge.  Her vision for the exhibition is to capture through artistic renderings the "essence" of a clinical disorder, specifically those associated with cerebrospinal fluid and connective tissue disorders.  Dr. Klinge reflects upon these artworks as part of her annual medical symposium held at the Alpert Medical School of Brown University and utilizes them to assist physicians and scientists to both gain a better understanding of the patient experience and create empathy for the patient's condition.
