North Adams Artists' Co-OP Gallery
 |
The talk is free to the public and refreshments will be served. This talks features the work of collage artists Debi Pendell who is an internationally recognized artist who teaches classes and workshops - mixed media collage; drawing; acrylic painting; and papier mache sculpture, masks & vessels - for both adults and children in various locations in Connecticut and Massachusetts.
Pendell’s artist talk at the North Adams Artist Co-Op, where she is an exhibiting member, coincides with a solo exhibition of her work at Gallery 51 from July 30 - August 23. She will present and discuss her work and answer questions from the audience.
Pendell’s multi-layered paintings explore juxtapositions and relationships, representation and abstraction. Hazy, imaginary landscapes are layered with text in a variety of forms and applications. Concentrating on abstract artistic elements in combination with materials and processes, Pendell plays with symbols of both visual art and language and how people “read” them and make meaning from them.
The North Adams Artist Co-op is one of 27 different galleries participating in this year’s DownStreet Art. DownStreet Art is a public art project designed to revitalize downtown North Adams.
