Sarah Meyers Brent: Primal Garden at the Walter Feldman Gallery, Boston
By Sarah Kinkade Boston, MA - Life is a complicated mess: there are ups and downs, joys and disappointments, smooth sailings and rough landings. It can be both ugly and beautiful, yet, the view of beauty generally prevails as almost everyone can agree that ‘life is beautiful.’ This sentiment is captured in the artwork of Sarah Meyers Brent. Brent’s inspiration mainly comes from her own life as she works through various situations and events, finding beauty in untraditional ways. Within her drawings and sculptural paintings, she embraces the ugliness of things while highlighting the hidden prettiness underneath it all. And yes, many of her paintings go beyond the standard definition of the word and enter the category of sculpture as they ooze and explode off the canvas. Many of her materials are organic — for example, flowers and dirt — mixed with acrylic to help give it shape. … [Read more...] about Sarah Meyers Brent: Primal Garden at the Walter Feldman Gallery, Boston
Celebrating International Women’s Day at IBA Gallery
By Natalia Chilcote Boston, MA - In celebration of International Women's Day, visiting the Villa Victoria Center for the Arts to view the exhibit, "Mujeres: Poetic Revelations of Our Lives," while artists Silvia Lopez Chavez and Nora Valdez were both in attendance. Against the white walls of the IBA Gallery, bright shades of pink, turquoise and green surround Silvia Lopez Chavez's canvassed face as she puffs out her cheeks in harsh concentration. The kaleidoscope of tiny air 'bubbles' escaping her pursed lips capture the moment just before she gives in. On the wall to the right, a video loops, replaying Chelsea residents engaged in similar activity. Joining them as well as the life-sized portraits of nine of these Chelsea residents, Chavez's self-portrait, "Hold Your Breath', serves as a point of conversation surrounding the dysfunctional structures that have created inadequate … [Read more...] about Celebrating International Women’s Day at IBA Gallery
Philip Gerstein: ¡Experiment! at Galatea Fine Art
By Sarah Kinkade Boston, MA - As the sound of African music flows throughout his studio, Philip Gerstein’s art pieces begin to sing their own songs in a burst of color and textures as their stories unfold. Each stands out in its own distinct way with different mediums and color palates, creating a theme of experimentation and discovery. Gerstein uses mediums of oil stick, glitter, powder pigment and textured gel to give his artwork a 3D perception that insists on a prolonged and closer look. Many exhibitions focus on a central theme or a particular artistic style; this is not the case with Gerstein. His exhibit “¡Experiment!” at Galatea Fine Art through April 26 showcases his diverse painting styles that range from his tranquil patterns of red in “The Power of Intention” to edgier pieces like “Listen and Ye Shall Hear;” each style is vastly different, yet appears to go hand-in-hand … [Read more...] about Philip Gerstein: ¡Experiment! at Galatea Fine Art
Actors’ Shakespeare Project presents God’s Ear
By Sarah Kinkade Somerville, MA - In today’s world, audiences expect to walk into a theater and see the traditional story arch; there are clear marks of an introduction, rising action, climax and conclusion. This is not the case with the new ASP production of God’s Ear; every expectation is torn down from beginning to end as it takes audiences through the thought process of life-changing tragedy. The main word that comes to mind while watching this thought-provoking production is surrealism. Instead of watching a series of events based on reality, the play takes on a dream-like quality as we enter the minds of the main characters: a father and mother, Ted (Gabriel Kuttner) and Mel (Tamara Hickey), who have suddenly lost their son. Through these viewpoints, along with the use of clichés and scraps of ordinary conversation, it becomes evident how meaningless words and everyday … [Read more...] about Actors’ Shakespeare Project presents God’s Ear
