PIECES OF GLOUCESTER:
Recent Paintings by ROKHAYA WARING

Opening Reception
Sunday, August 2, 5:00-7:00 PM

Exhibit Runs: July 30 – August 23, 2015

The Cultural Center at Rocky Neck
6 Wonson Street, Gloucester, MA 01930
Gallery hours: Thurs-Sun, 12:00-6:00 PM

The Cultural Center at Rocky Neck on Wonson Street is pleased to host the solo exhibition: Pieces of Gloucester: Recent Painting by Rokhaya Waring.  The paintings in this exhibit allow the artist to share her passionate response to Gloucester’s ever-changing light, color, and mood. Waring focuses on land and seascapes of her hometown of Gloucester, presenting works from her studio as well as direct, plein-air paintings. During the course of her artistic career, Waring has often chosen the form of diptych, triptych, or other multiples; contrasts in time of day, weather, distance from a subject or placement of the horizon line to provide an endless number of compositions or “pieces” that can stand alone, or as a group, and emphasize the constant shift in our visual perception. Furthermore, Waring’s recurring motifs of city skyline, rooftops, and boats on the water convey the overarching theme of single and multiple, solitude and community.

Pieces of Gloucester is on view at The Cultural Center at Rocky Neck, 6 Wonson Street, Gloucester, July 30-August 23, 2015 during gallery hours Thursday-Sunday from 12-6 PM. The public is invited to the Opening Reception at the Cultural Center on Sunday, August 2, 5-7 PM. Light refreshments will be served.

ABOUT ROKHAYA WARING

“I paint the way I cook and the way I garden. Inspiration is an appetite; canvas and paint are the soil and seeds. The process is immediate and physical: I delve with my hands, things move and evolve. Through flavors, colors and textures, what I hope to convey is the feeling of being there; wind and sun, air and light, the power of nature—a transient beauty that is often bittersweet.”

Rokhaya Waring was born in 1966 in Santa Fe, NM. French by her mother and American by her father, her dual-nationality and bilingualism have had a profound influence on her work, as has her homeschooling. In 1972, Waring’s parents settled in Rockport, MA and founded La Petite Ecole out of their own home, now The Waring School. Her most lasting memories are of days at this school, the outdoors and the hand-made; camping across America, printing on an antique letterpress, milking goats and baking bread…and above all, sketching daily. The habit of visually recording her experiences and the natural world has not only helped keep memories alive, but become the foundation of her artistic technique and vision.

After graduating from Princeton with a BA in Art History/Visual Arts, Waring spent her first summer painting in the Provencal village of Forcalquier. Her principal home for most of the next twenty years, this cultivated yet rugged landscape perfectly suited her artistic vision, providing inexhaustible inspiration. Waring also spent time living and painting in various parts of New England, San Francisco and LA, Charleston, SC., Israel, Italy and the UK, the Caribbean, and Tahiti. In 2008 Waring moved to Gloucester.

The majority of Waring ‘s current work is inspired by this gritty, albeit picturesque New England town. Many aspects of Gloucester and Cape Ann recall la Haute Provence of her own formative years with one locale situated on the North Atlantic coast, the other in the lower Alps. The spirit of Impressionism and plein-air painting, with its constant change in light, color and mood, are a natural extension of her sensibilities and lend vibrancy to her work. Waring enjoys the advantages of painting directly from nature, and in her studio. It is in the quiet focus of this space that her vision is distilled and refined.

Waring has exhibited in dozens of solo and juried group shows in Boston, New York, San Diego, Paris, and Provence, including the Salon Des Artistes Français and the Salon d’Automne, and the Currier Museum of Art. Her paintings are held in hundreds of collections internationally. Notable collectors include Carl Crossman, art dealer and appraiser for Antiques Roadshow; U.S. CTO (2009-14) Todd Park; and actress Brooke Shields. Waring is featured in the book “100 Artists of New England” (Schiffer 2011) and in “The American Flag in Contemporary Art”, (Schiffer, 2015).

New exhibition features 39 paintings from July 11 to Nov. 29

One of the country’s most important painters of the early 20^th century, John Sloan (1871-1951) made his name painting urban daily life in New York City before coming to Cape Ann for five summers (1914-1918) to paint scenes of the sea, marshes, homes, rocky outcroppings, downtown views, and landscapes that proved to be a hallmark of his career.

In a special loan exhibition, the Cape Ann Museum will feature 39 paintings that Sloan created while in Gloucester, thought to be among his finest work and most prolific period. The Museum holds five major paintings in its permanent collection and will be borrowing 30 more pieces for the exhibit from a wide-reaching network of institutions across the country. JOHN SLOAN Gloucester Days opens July 11 and runs through Nov. 29.

Sloan was born in Lock Haven, Pennsylvania in 1871, grew up in Philadelphia, and studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. In 1904, he moved to New York City where he affiliated with a group of artists known as “The Eight;” in addition to Sloan, the group included Robert Henri, Maurice Prendergast, William Glackens, Everett Shinn, Arthur Davies, Ernest Lawson, and George Luks. The Eight evolved into the better-known Ashcan School, a loose-knit group of artists who sought to capture the reality of daily life in New York City.

The forward-thinking Armory Show of 1913 in New York was a turning point for Sloan. Inspired by the progressive work he saw there, Sloan sought new venues for painting.  He was invited by fellow artist and friend Charles Allan Winter to Gloucester in the summer of 1914, and together they rented a little red cottage near Rocky Neck where Sloan would often paint two landscapes a day. The house was a popular gathering spot for many of their friends, including Stuart Davis.  The red cottage still stands on Gloucester’s East Main Street.

Intrigued by the lush green seaside grass juxtaposed against the blue sea, Sloan captured recognizable scenes downtown and along the shoreline. He returned to Cape Ann for four more summers. “After coming back with our easels, canvases, and paint boxes, we would each sit in a corner of the dining room to study our work,” Sloan recalled. “One summer Stuart Davis and family shared the cottage. We went out painting together. All of us were interested in developing different orchestrations of color on the palette.” By 1919, Sloan sought new landscapes for his work and moved to New Mexico.

Cape Ann Museum’s Sloan collection includes: Sunflowers, Rocky Neck, 1914; Old Cone (Uncle Sam) 1914; Glare on the Bay, c. 1914; Red Warehouses at Gloucester, 1914; and Dogtown, Ruined Blue Fences, 1916.

The exhibition will also feature  additional  paintings  on loan from the Hood Museum of Art, Dartmouth College; Lehigh University Art Galleries; Arkell Museum in Canajoharie, NY; Bowdoin College Museum of Art; Syracuse University Art Collection; Delaware Art Museum; Duke University Museum of Art; University of Washington Museum of Art; Norton Museum of Art in Palm Beach, FL; New Britain Museum of American Art; Tacoma Art Museum; Kraushaar Galleries; Parrish Art Museum in NY; as well as private collections.

“Gloucester afforded the first opportunity for continuous work in landscape, and I really made the most of it,” Sloan recalled. “Working from nature gives, I believe, the best means of advance in color and spontaneous design.”

Thursday, July 23 at 7 p.m.:
Three Moderns Paint Gloucester: Sloan, Hartley, and Hopper on Cape Ann

Presented by Carol Troyen, an independent scholar and author, and the Kristin and Roger Servison Curator Emerita of American Paintings at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Although they never overlapped in Gloucester, three of the greatest painters of the early 20^th century – John Sloan, Edward Hopper, and Marsden Hartley – spent significant parts of their careers on Cape Ann. The three artists’ responses to the region differed markedly, but the area’s appealing vistas led each to a new and modern style. The lecture will trace their steps through Gloucester and compare what each found there.

Thursday, Aug. 13 at 7 p.m.:
John Sloan, Robert Henri, and John Butler Yeats: A Portrait of Friendship

Presented by Avis Berman, an independent writer, art historian, and author of Rebels on Eighth Street: Juliana Force and the Whitney Museum of American Art; James McNeill Whistler and Edward Hopper’s New York.

Understanding how artists consider portraits and the deeper emotional currents that inspire them is especially revealing in the case of American painter and printmaker John Sloan. He could not have matured into the artist that he was without his connection to two other forceful personalities and fellow painters, Robert Henri and John Butler Yeats. The intense, transformative, and intellectual friendships were central to Sloan’s life and work.

Friday, Oct. 30 at 7 p.m.:
Passing through Gloucester: John Sloan Between City and Country

Presented by Michael Lobel, Professor of Art History and Director of the Master’s Program in Modern and Contemporary Art, Criticism, and Theory at Purchase College, State University of New York and author of Image Duplicator: Roy Lichtenstein and the Emergence of Pop Art; James Rosenquist: Pop Art, Politics and History in the 1960s; and John Sloan: Drawing on Illustration.

In contrast to the urban setting of John Sloan’s most memorable Ashcan School paintings, the works the artist produced in Gloucester are more pastoral in nature. Sloan’s time in Gloucester overlapped not only with his own political interests but during the era of World War I. Those political considerations will be discussed in how they relate to Sloan’s images of New York and his treatment of Gloucester’s seemingly idyllic scenes.

Tickets for the lecture series are $10 for members and $15 for non-members. For the series, tickets are $25 for members and $40 for non-members. For more information, call 978-283-0455 x10 or email: info@capeannmuseum.org.

Captivating Moments: Music, Dance, and the American Landscape

The exhibit dates: July 1 – 27
Where: Beverly Public Library, 32 Essex St., Beverly, MA 01915

Photographer Thom Adorney of Beverly, MA will have a photography exhibit at the Beverly Public Library during the month of July. The exhibit will feature photographs of artists, such as Angie Miller, Livingston Taylor, Steve James, and Comedian Patty Ross, who have performed at The Cabot Theater, as well as landscapes from across America.

“I love capturing artists in that exquisite moment when they are lost in the act of creating,” says Thom. “There’s a purity in that.”

A New England native, Thom spent 35 years in Colorado and traveling the West. He’s photographed in the canyon lands of Utah and Arizona, the Colorado Rockies, and the Grand Tetons and Yellowstone in Wyoming. “There’s something supernatural about the vast spaces and dramatic landscapes in the West,” he says. “But the North Shore, with it’s rocky coastline, marshes, and towering woods, is no less beautiful. I’m delighted to have a new palette to work from.”

The photographs in the exhibit, as well as those on his website, will be available to purchase, with a portion of the profits being donated to renovating The Cabot Theater. “Volunteering at The Cabot is truly gratifying,” says Thom. “I feel that I am helping re-create a cultural hub for Beverly and the North Shore.”

Thursday, July 2 through Saturday, July 25. OPEN FREE TO THE PUBLIC.

Artist Anita Johnson, Popular Award for Exhibition II, (image not shown)

Honoring its founding artists Theresa Bernstein, Frederick Mulhaupt, and Hugh Breckenridge among many others, and 9 decades of groundbreaking exhibitions, the artists of the North Shore Arts Association continue to offer a stunning display of their oil, graphics, watercolor, and sculpture works in their third major exhibition of the 2015 season. These NSAA artists, national award winners in every medium, invite you to join them in celebrating “The Year of The Artist!”.

The historic North Shore Arts Association opens an exciting Artist Members’ Small Works Exhibit, July 30 – August 29, and offers its First Juried Associate Members’ Show of the 2015 Season, August 6 – August 29.   Receptions for both the Small Works and Associate Members’ Exhibits will be held Sunday, August 23, 1 – 3 pm.   Refreshments served.  Open and free to the public.

Many giants of the art world including Rembrandt, Van Gogh and Vermeer painted much treasured and highly prized small art works.  The appeal of small works is manifold with flexible display options:  the work can be clustered in and around other pieces; or placed in tiny, sometimes awkward spaces; or hung in discreet groupings, and easily placed on small easels atop a side table, and often lower price points are also an advantage.  The main appeal, however, is to enjoy an intimate and condensed expression of the artist’s focused vision.

Come join the North Shore Arts Association as it celebrates its “Year Of The Artist!” with a Small Works members exhibition and Associate Members Show.

“Three Artists, Three Unique Demonstrations”  will be a special demonstration and discussion of three unusual painting techniques.  Saturday, July 25, 10:30 am at North Shore Arts Association.  Open and free to the public.

 Essex artist Susan Guest-MacPhail will discuss mixed media and demonstrate Gelli Plate printing that requires no presses, special inks or paper.

 Gloucester artist Susan Daly is working with new mediums in Acrylic painting that create a variety of matte and glossy finishes and textures.  These new techniques have earned her recent awards.

The mini demos will accommodate questions and answers.  The audience is encouraged to actively participate and share their own discoveries in any new and exciting art materials and their uses.  Creativity has no boundaries!

The North Shore Arts Association’s galleries are open, free to the public, Monday through Saturday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, Noon to 5 p.m.

Gallery 53 Artist Demonstration – Second in series
Saturday July 18^th, 2015 from 1 pm-3 pm

Gallery 53 on Rocky Neck is having their second live-artist demonstration to be held in the gallery on Saturday, July 18^th from 1-3 pm. They will be featuring Pam Stratton, mosaic artist. Pam is mostly a self-taught artist but has studied in Ravena, Italy and Spilimbergo, Italy along with many weekend workshops to hone her craft[kb1] . She comments that creating mosaics “Is a deeply focusing activity like a meditation. I enjoy the solid permanence of the materials, their weight, their texture and their history. I often work with stone and glass together as it reflects my surroundings… the granite coast and ever changing sea.”

For the demo Pam will be working on a mosaic and demonstrating the use of the hammer and hardie.  She says, “Since antiquity, the most satisfying tools for accurate cutting of glass smalti, stone and marble have been the mosaic hammer and hardie. The hardie is like a chisel mounted in a wooden stump.”

Please come down and see the art of mosaics and talk with Pam as she shows you how it’s done.
