This week we're presenting Studio Place Arts, Cahoon Museum of American Art and Hera Gallery.
The shows on display at these three institutions highlight the work of (mostly) women artists. There is no common thread between the exhibitions - the themes, mediums and structures of each show are completely different. However, they show the sheer variety and talent of women artists across New England.
Download the Artscope Magazine App to get the complete experience for our March / April 2024 issue. Available now.

Studio Place Arts presents, Hiding in Plain Sight by Amy Schachter, a show that highlights the work of Vermont-based artist Amy Schachter and her bright, vivid and abstract paintings and sculptures. While this show aims to reflect "complex relationships between the past and present," much of Schachter's art "explores the human experience as told through a female lens." The figures in her paintings and are assembled from bold shapes, giving them a fragile look yet powerful presence. The gallery is open Wednesday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Studio Place Arts is located at 201 N. Main Street, Barre, VT.

Cahoon Museum of American Art presents Bold Women and Vivid Dreams Sarah Peters and Don Nakamura, which showcases the artwork of Sarah Peters and Don Nakamura, two ceramic artists who both hail from the same Philadelphia studio, The Clay Studio. While Nakamura's large-scale and colorful ceramic sculptures plumbs the depths of the human spirit, Peters' smaller ceramic works include teapots inspired by cultural feminine icons like the above Wondergrrrl Teapot. Though approaching the topic in different ways, both artists explore the human experience through the spirit and the body. The museum is open Wednesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Cahoon Museum of American Art is located at 4676 Falmouth Rd., Cotuit MA. For more information, please visit here. | |
