‘Celestial Turning’ on Exhibit at BCC

- October 16, 2007

“A Celestial Turning,” an exhibit by artist Carol Beth Icard will be on display in the Koussevitzky Gallery at Berkshire Community College between now and November 15.

The artist, who graduated from BCC in 1996 and describes herself as “an emotional, introspective painter,” often begins her work with thoughts or photographs that carry her from journal to canvas. Although Icard’s paintings give her a non-verbal means of communicating the essence of everything that she contemplates and finds significant, she frequently includes words in her paintings that contribute to both content and composition.

Her work covers a wide range of styles. “Just as the moon waxes and wanes,” she said, “the manner of my work cycles from painting recognizable, iconic objects to the abstract, more minimal distillation of my remembered experiences.”

Icard has displayed her work in solo exhibitions throughout Berkshire County, and North and South Carolina. Her selected group exhibitions extend to California, Tennessee, Georgia, New York, New Jersey, and a “Residents Show” in Italy. Recent awards include first place in the professional open media category at the 39th Annual Sidewalk Art Exhibit sponsored by the Spartanburg (N.C.) County Museum of Art, and third place in the juried art exhibition.

Permanent collections of her work are in the Carol Grotnes Belk Library and Information Commons at Appalachian State University in Boone, N.C.; and Hospice of the Carolina Foothills in Columbus, N.C.

The exhibit is free and open to the public. The gallery is located in BCC’s Koussevitzky Arts Center. Gallery hours are from 9 to 5, Monday through Friday.
