“Resident Spirits – The Masculine
and Feminine Soul as Found in
Cape Ann Quarry Paintings”
Lecture by Les Bartlett – Saturday, October 10th, 3pm
“I will be recounting my visual journey through the works of men and women who have painted Cape Ann Quarries. This will include selections from the works of Childe Hassam, Leon Kroll, Lester Stevens, Gabrielle Dev Clements and Erma Wheeler. The history of Cape Ann Quarry Painters will be looked at in the light of the Hudson River School Painters who had an early interest in what Cape Ann had to offer as a source of artistic inspiration. I will include several of my own works to illustrate the artistic resiliency offered by our Cape Ann Quarries.” – Les Bartlett
