Art In The Berkshires Presents Two Community Fall Exhibitions
 |
GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — Art in the Berkshires Gallery will present two concurrent exhibitions this fall: "As I See It" and "KATUNEMO's Love IS Resistance."
"As I See It" brings together six artists whose work reflects distinct ways of seeing, interpreting, and responding to the world. Featuring Larry Frankel, Michael Beuth, Rachel Kaufmann, Mollie Kellogg, Ray Warner, and Marc Simmons, the exhibition considers how observation is shaped by memory, experience, attention, and personal perspective.
"As I See It" will be on view Sept. 11–Oct. 18, 2026. A public reception will be held Saturday, Sept. 19, from 4:00 – 6:00 PM. Saturday Morning Gallery Talks will take place Oct. 3 and Oct. 10 from 11 a.m. to noon.
Beginning Sept. 18, Art in the Berkshires will also host "KATUNEMO Art & Healing's Love IS Resistance" in the Creative Studio and front bay window. Presented in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, the community exhibition explores art as an expression of cultural identity, healing, connection, and resistance. It will remain on view through Oct. 18, with a public reception during gallery hours on Saturday, Sept. 26, from 4:00 – 6:00 PM. The Festival Latino of the Berkshires will also take place on September 26 from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., behind the Town Hall at Green Park and Saint James Place on Main Street in Great Barrington. The art show, the reception, and the Festival Latino are free to the public.
"I am thrilled to partner with KATUNEMO to present Love IS Resistance during Hispanic Heritage Month," said Shany Porras, founder and director of Art in the Berkshires. "As a Venezuelan immigrant, this collaboration is especially meaningful to me. At a time when we are preparing to vote and make our voices heard, I am proud to help create space for local artists to share their experiences, identities, and perspectives with the wider community."
Art in the Berkshires Gallery + Creative Studio is located at 8 Castle Street in downtown Great Barrington. For exhibition information and gallery hours, visit artintheberkshires.com.
