Ven Voisey: VS.
Jun. 28 - Jul. 22
Opening Reception:
June 28 6-9 p.m.

An environment of images, objects, and sounds derrived from conflicting forces, ideologies, and logic systems. Voisey's works are simultaneously dark and playful with a sensibility, mythology and imagery hovering somewhere between Joseph Beuys and Mr. Rogers. Image: Ven Voisey, I love you, octopus (detail).

 

Sean Riley:
Meet Me in the
Middle of the Air
Jul. 26- Aug. 26
Opening Reception:
Jul. 26 6-9 p.m.

Riley's fabric works act as monuments and memorials, commemorating the passing of time that adds up to a life lived.  This exhibition includes recent quilts and embroidered works on denim along side a series of drawings and paintings inspired by the tactile qualities of fabrics and textiles used.

 

Richard Criddle:
Compendium
Aug. 30 - Sep. 23
Opening Reception:
Aug. 30 7-9 p.m.

Richard Criddle is highly regarded for his ingenuity in his daytime roll as MASS MoCA's director of fabrication and installation.   His own work is equally smart and diverse: often comprised scrap metal odds and ends and re-purposed found objects , his creations speak to a quick wit and off-beat sense of humor.   This exhibition is a selection of Criddle's most recent drawings and sculpture.


Die Formmeister:
The Masters
of the Form
Sep. 27 - Oct. 21
Opening Reception:
Sep. 27 6-9pm 

Inspired by the concept of the Bauhaus, this exhibit honors the teaching of art in the Berkshires.  Featuring the talents of the artists/teachers from IS183 Art School in Stockbridge, MA and a broad spectrum of artistic practices, "The Masters of the Form" (Die Formmeister) includes work by Yura Adams, Janet Cooper, Fay O'Meara, Dina Noto, Paula Shalan and others.

 

Josh Simpson
Oct. 25 - Nov. 25
Opening Reception:
Oct. 25, 6-9 p.m

Influenced by natural landscapes and phenomena as well as the physical qualities of his chosen medium,  Simpsons' glass work playfully manipulates light, creating complex microcosms of texture, color, radiance and shadow.
