Gloucester
A newcomer to the Top 25 list, Gloucester is home to museums, galleries and the oldest working art colony in the U.S.

Gloucester voted as #3 of Top 25 Small Cities for Art by American Style

Excerpt from magazine:
"Art is vital to the lifeblood of Gloucester. There are many beautiful places with seashores and harbors but the combination of arts, culture, and industry are rarely so integrated and integral to the life of a city. It makes Gloucester a very unique place that celebrates art in a way that most cities can’t," says resident and AmericanStyle reader Barbara Silberman. Gloucester is home to a large population of artists, many of whom display their work in Rocky Neck Art Colony galleries and studios. You can visit the Rocky Neck Gallery or enjoy open studios and entertainment during Nights on the Neck, on the first Thursday of the month from June to October.

Ocean currents, navigation routes, intersection of land, sea, and sky, and the imagining of what exists in the unspecified depths of water are all sources for the paintings and works on paper by Kathy Soles.

Soles holds a B.A. from Emmanuel College in Boston and an M.F.A. from American University in Washington, D.C.

May 29 to June 12 : Solo Exhibitions by Featured Artists, Jeff Weaver, and Jack Jones, North Shore Arts Gordon Grant Room

North Shore Arts Association presents Solo Exhibitions by Featured Artists, Jeff Weaver, May 29 through June 12 and Jack Jones, May 29 through June 12 in the Gordon Grant Room.

In his early years in Gloucester, Jeff Weaver supported himself at various waterfront jobs, as well as by painting boat portrait commissions for fishing vessel captains and murals in commercial establishments and private homes. This eventually led to many years of commercial work including more than 30 murals painted in Gloucester. Returning to fine art pursuits in the 1990s, Jeff again focused on depicting Gloucester and its environs in various media. He currently operates a studio/gallery at 16 Rogers Street on the Gloucester waterfront. His exhibit at NSAA will feature his drawings, many of which are studies for later paintings.

Jack Jones, an accomplished watercolor and oil painter and teacher, is known for his lively use of color. He attended the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, and studied with Paul Goodridge for eight years. Together with his photographer wife, Phyllis, he has traveled extensively throughout the United States, Europe and the Caribbean to capture the beauty of the various countrysides. His work has appeared in five major books on watercolor as well as being featured on both the cover of The Artist’s Magazine and in the 2003 issue of the Watercolor Magazine.

Semi Circle by Michael Seif

June 8 – June 21 : Figures in Motion
Summer Artist Series Exhibit by Michael Seif

Reception, SAT, June 11, 5-8pm
Artist’s Talk, 7pm

The first of nine Summer Artist Series exhibitions kicks off the season at the Rocky Neck Gallery beginning Wednesday, June 8. Photogapher Michael Seif will show new photographs of his figures in water.

I photograph the figure in water to convey the beauty and grace of the human being in motion. In water, surface swirls and glinting sunlight are telltale signs of motion, revealing an active, living creature of nature. By photographing from above, I change the normal perspective, so figures appear to soar, fall, dance, weave in and out of each other’s paths. They become schools of fish, or falling angels, a corp de ballet, or a whole other organism comprised of multiple bodies.

Painting from the Heart

Cultivating Intuitive Vision
with Color, Imagery, Print & Collage: by Sigrid Olsen
June 13-17, 2011
Montserrat College of Art
23 Essex St. Beverly MA 01915

This workshop will incorporate a number of techniques Sigrid has developed to allow free and spontaneous use of color and print in order to express one’s personal life vision. The goal is to open up to possibility and leave each participant inspired to leave all preconceptions behind and get on with the business of highly creative living. The mood will be equally upbeat and introspective, technically instructional while reaching deeper to unleash inner imagination and self-expression. We will use a three part media: painting, print and collage. There will be a focus on color mixing, color theory and self expression through color utilizing permanent brilliant watercolor inks on paper. In combination with the watercolor under-painting, there will be a print component, employing hand-carved rubber print blocks. The workshop culminates in a collage using all the elements practiced over the past few days. The notion of inspiration will be explored through guided meditation, audio-visual presentation and open discussion.

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

This is Your Boy Joey asking you to come on down and say hi and take it all in (and there will be some fantastic refreshments)

we will be live blogging the event as well so come on down and get your mug on GMG!

One Page From Abby Ytzen’s Gloucester Fishing 101 Handbook

Click the picture for just one page from Abby’s Gloucester Fishing 101 book which she produced for seARTS Partner With an Artist Program.  there will be many panels on eth walls here at our Dock- Captain Joe and Sons 95 East Main St Saturday from 10-2PM

Click on the picture below to see it full sized and learn some interesting facts for yourself.  I for one was astounded at the breakdown of how many of each different type of commercial fishing boats there were.  42% of the fleet are lobster boats, I had no idea, but this is just one of the factoids that Abby has broken down.  I think if you click on the picture you will get a sense of how easy she made it all to understand even though there is a ton of data in her book and in her exhibit, ANYONE could easily understand it.

-and this is all stuff that anyone that really takes pride in living in Gloucester or loves the fishing industry should know about.

So be sure to stop on by the dock Saturday 10-2PM

Abby Ytzen/Captain Joe and Sons seARTS Partner With An Artist Exhibit May 21st

Blown away!  When you can get Pete Mondello, a fisherman for over 50 years excited about a Gloucester fishing industry exhibit you know you’ve done something special.

The way Abby has broken down such an incredible amount of fisheries statistics into an easily digestible visual/artistic/educational/fun presentation with everything you need to know about where Gloucester’s fishing industry has been with data and visuals bringing you right up to the present is nothing short of astounding.

This is an uncomplicated 101 guidebook to Gloucester’s fishing industry which has distilled all the data and will give any person a good basic understanding of what is going on around the Gloucester waterfront.  The way it is broken down there is info for people 7 years old to 70 and it is all incredibly interesting.  Every person who considers themselves a real “Gloucesterite” NEEDS to come see this exhibit.
