Perugi Now Member of Galatea Fine Art

by | Sep 23, 2023 | Arts, Galatea Fine Art, News, Newton Art Association, Newton Open Studios

Several Newton artist members of both Newton Open Studios and Newton Art Association invited me to apply to become a member of Galatea Fine Art Gallery. It is located in the SoWa (South of Washington) district of Boston, located at Harrison Avenue, 3B-6. I have been to the gallery before to visit artist friends who were members there.

“SoWa is the most sought-after art community in Boston with over 30 galleries, design houses and restaurants all clustered within walking distance. Hundreds of people come out on First Friday to view the new exhibitions in the area, as well as the Open Markets from May – October. Galatea Fine Art has been, and continues to be, a source of comprehensive, stimulating and nourishing exhibitions, creating a pillar of activity in the area.”

Galatea itself is a co-operative gallery with fifty artist members. Each member exhibits in a member show in January and schedules their own show as well. It is not just a gallery but a community of artists who meet and support each other. I’m looking forward to meeting the other artists. And I’ll be opening the gallery on Sptember 28 for four hours. Come say hi!

Newton Art Association Show at Newton Library to Open

by | Sep 4, 2019 | Arts, Cold Wax and Oil, Newton Art Association, Shows

Today a myriad of artists showed up with art work in hand to add to the yearly Newton Public Library Show. The show opening is on Monday at 8 pm and all are invited! There are three rooms displayed with paintings and sculpture: The large gallery room, a middle room and the library entrance hallway. An art hanging committee of ten people (including me) stayed three hours to arrange the pieces, hanging them on clips and spacing and labeling them accordingly. My diptych, “Doors and Ways” is in the main room. See attached photos.There are always a few who label their pieces wrong, like me, and the typist has to make another few labels. Thanks, Carole Slattery!
