SUMMARY:Since We Last Spoke: A UMassD Illustration Alumni Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Join us during aha! June 13th 4pm-7pm for an opening art exhibition featuring the UMassD Illustration Alumni and a live musical performance by Skyjelly! Since We Last Spoke will be on display at Groundwork June 3-June 28th. Visitors are welcome M-F 9am-2pm\n.\nGroundwork is thrilled to welcome UMassD graduates for an exhibition that celebrates the art of illustration. Since losing the Star Store\, faculty and students of UMassD’s College of Visual Performing Arts have been eager to reconnect with the New Bedford art community\, and this exhibition is the seed of new beginnings.\n.\n\n“125 years ago\, the Quest Center was part of the Swain School of Design\, a creative force during New Bedford’s manufacturing heyday. Now a part of UMass Dartmouth’s College of Visual Performing Arts (CVPA)\, those art\, design\, and artisanry students are making their way through a very different world. Graduates today have to be creative not just with the work that they create\, but in how they generate and find opportunities for themselves. In exhibiting here at Groundwork\, these UMass Dartmouth graduates are harkening back to CVPA’s roots. This exhibition also includes work that celebrates Pride month. The LGBTQIA+ community is well represented in the world of illustration\, and has contributed in major ways to the field.\n.\nIllustration is art that speaks to people in a direct\, accessible way\, even when it is un-commissioned work. It does not need to be attached to a text. Recent Illustration alumni are organizing community art events\, publishing webcomics\, exhibiting at local festivals\, illustrating Marvel characters\, tarot card decks\, murals\, solo gallery exhibitions\, and more. They cover a broad swath of creative output that can attach itself to nearly any field. The work on exhibit here ranges widely in style\, process\, and subject matter\, but even then it does not cover all of what illustration can be.”\n.\n\n– Jess Worby\, Assistant Teaching Professor\, Illustration\n\n\nCollege of Visual and Performing Arts at UMD\n\n.\n\nThis event is supported in part by the Wicked Cool Places grant funded by the City of New Bedford & facilitated by NB Creative

SUMMARY:Double Take with Robin Nunes and Barbara Healy
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the Groundwork Gallery on May 9th at 5pm for an art opening reception featuring artists Robin Nunes and Barbara Healy. This is a free event and open to the public. Double Take will be on display from May 1st – June 1st. Guests are welcome to drop-in for a gallery visit during our business hours Monday-Friday 9am-2pm. \nRobin Nunes is a full time award-winning fine artist who lives and paints in South Dartmouth. She is a member of the Attleboro Art Museum\, Southcoast Artists\, Four Corners Gallery\, and Westport Art Group. Robin is from Chesapeake\, Virginia\, where she would often visit the capturing canals and beautiful coastlines in her backyard. Her art journey began in the mangroves of Key West\, and has migrated to the beautiful South Coastal region of Southern Massachusetts. Her love of Nature has brought her to the love of painting en plein air. Beaches and birds are her favorite subjects to paint.\n\nWhether it’s painting seascapes or landscapes\, her use of a palette knife adds a whimsical and playful approach to her art. She is currently represented by Norton Gallery\, Padanaram\, Attleboro Art Museum\, Attleboro\, MA\, Four Corners Gallery\, Historical Tiverton\, RI\, and Spring Bull Gallery\, Newport RI\, Fakes and Forgeries Exhibit. Ms Nunes is a graduate from UMASS and in addition to being an artist\, is the author of The Nunes Family Cookbook and had her first book signing at the Miami International Book Fair.\n\n\nBarbara Healy is a contemporary artist working in oils and acrylics. A Connecticut native\, Barbara fell in love with the South Coast\, and her husband Shaun\, while getting her BFA at UMASS Dartmouth and stayed. Her studio in Dartmouth\, MA has been on the South Coast Artists Open Studio Tour for 13 years.  She is a board member of Westport Art Group\, a Juried Artist Member of the Cape Cod Art Center\, and also teaches painting. Her award-winning paintings are in Massachusetts and Rhode Island galleries and corporate collections including Bristol County Savings Bank in New Bedford and Tobey Hospital in Wareham.\n“My paintings are inspired by the diverse colors of light in the beautiful coastal landscape where I live.  I frequently paint plein air\, using all my senses to share my vision. Paintings capture that feeling of peace and joy that nature gives. I look for what is unique\, to convey a sense of place. Although often evoked by a fleeting moment\, I translate in paint to transcend time. Brushstrokes over glimpses of color intentionally reveal some of the painting process and layering enables me to create luminous color. Although I love oil paints on canvas\, I am always experimenting.”

SUMMARY:3rd Annual Anchor Academy Student Art Show
DESCRIPTION:The Groundwork Gallery is happy to host the 3rd Annual Anchor Academy Art Exhibit! This event highlights beautiful works that were created during Anchor Academy’s Art Class throughout the year. \nJoin us for the opening reception on Thursday\, April 11th\, from 4pm to 7pm at Groundwork Gallery\, at 1213 Purchase Street in New Bedford\, MA. Our doors are open to the public Monday through Friday\, 9am-2pm. \n*Use the entrance on Maxfield Street* \nThis year’s edition focuses on students’ answers to the question\, Now What? All school year long each assignment while containing technical skill building components also existed within a theme. Asking the big questions that artists grapple with is a key driver to revealing the meaning behind student artwork. Specifically\, a student may be asked to render a realistic drawing of a still-life but furthermore they are challenged to keep in the fore how to answer the question\, Now What? This practice has led to the type of maker experience that values expression\, beauty\, and truth equally.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Character by Mark Gleicher
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening reception of “Character\,” a solo show by Mark Gleicher in the Groundwork Gallery.   \nMark Gleicher\, has lived and worked as an artist on the SouthCoast for almost 30 years. These days you will most often find him tooling around his home studio in Little Compton where he continues to create signature works that carry on a tradition of weird and limitless art making.  \nThis exhibit is only his second ever solo show and the first since his Mid Career Survey at the Dartmouth Town Hall Art Gallery in 2010.  \nCHARACTER is a collection of new work and greatest hits. Many of the pieces are collaborations with his long-time partner\, James Boutin with a few featuring his daughter Lily and an assorted group of friends and misanthropes. It is moody and fantastic; silly\, druggie\, dark and honest.  \nCHARACTER will be on view at the Groundwork Gallery June 1-30. Hours are M-Th 9-5 and F 9-1. Masks are required inside the gallery.

SUMMARY:Gallery Opening Reception - Variation x 3
DESCRIPTION:Details on new work\, coming soon!Please join us July 13th 6-9pm at Groundwork! For the opening reception of Jade Gotauco\, Matt Finger and M. Caszhen. The Gallery is open Mon-Fri 9-5. Weekends are by appointment only. \nJade Gotauco: Jade is self-taught artist\, born and raised in Rhode Island. She has been working professionally as an artist in many mediums since 2005. From 2008-2010\, she operated Go Gallery on Bellevue Avenue in Newport\, across the street from the acclaimed Newport Art Museum. At that point\, she wished to focus on producing more work in an intimate informal setting. And so began GOstudio. Jade gels best with the vibe of Warren’s working class fishing village\, so that’s where you’ll find GOstudio today. \nJade’s work is primarily in oil painting and scrimshaw\, but she rarely shies away from trying something new. Newer works introduce visual meditations on food\, politics\, music\, and both the privilege and struggle of being a working artist in our society. \nOn a constant mission to stay mindful in this fast-paced American life\, Jade utilizes the color spectrum from black to white\, attempting to uncover the balance within chaos. Raised in a mixed culture from Asian to Irish\, from fishermen to musicians and lawyers\, the eclectic nature of her upbringing has developed into a lifestyle that insists upon a compulsion to explore\, learn\, and create beyond the comfort of tradition. \nMatt Finger: Matt Finger’s pieces are created with a variety of media including acrylic paint\, chip board\, gessoed papers\, MDF board and resin. When completed the pieces have a glassy\, tile-like feel. The work tends to work well in small series or grids. Within the paintings\, he explores color harmony and variations of texture and form. \nM. Caszhen: M. Caszhen is an established working artist gone rogue. Using found items dating from ancient to vintage\, they move away from their traditional 2D style and into a probe of multidimensional shape\, body\, and time. Caszhen has been producing and selling their work since 1992 throughout the New England area.

I am motivated by the frustration of working a day job\, current events\, political uneasiness\, and seasonal depression. \nI am influenced by American folk art\, Japanese block printing\, contemporary tattooing\, outsider art and all things counter culture. I use a stream of conscious approach while working\, to keep an honest representation of my own human experience. \nThis program is supported in part by a grant from the New Bedford and Dartmouth Local Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: The Artwork of Richard Goulis and Paul Everett
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the opening of Artwork by Richard Goulis and Paul Everette. During the opening there will be a one of a kind\, original interactive performance by Richard Goulis. \nRichard Goulis is a multi-media artist and came to Providence in 1980 to attend the Rhode Island School of Design. During his studies in the Film/Animation/Video department he became aware of the local artistic community due to his frequent forays into the mysterious city and his development of various artistic projects outside the RISD community. His earliest performance art pieces have become part of the lexicon within the Rhode Island and RISD community and beyond. He was the recipient of the RISCA Fellowship for New Genres and numerous RISCA project grants\, as well as research and development grants from The Rhode Island Council for the Humanities. His performance work has been seen at festivals around the world and his video pieces are in the collection of The Museum of Art\, Rhode Island School of Design\, Corning Museum of Glass\, and many private collections. \nThrough his video work on the NetWorks series (a Rhode Island-based arts project co-created with Umberto Crenca and produced annually by Joseph A. Chazan\, M.D. since 2008) he has showcased the work of selected artists who have played vital roles in shaping the contemporary visual arts community in Rhode Island. The collection of brief video portraits\, which is currently being shown on public television\, provides a window into the lives\, practices\, and cultural contributions of professional artists. \nHe is currently working with Sheryl Kopel on a documentary project about the Artist Space\, AS220 in Providence\, RI. \nHe is the Founding Artist Director of The Worcester Artist Group\, in Worcester\, MA and was the Founding Artistic Director of The Harwood Art Center in Albuquerque\, NM. \nAbout Paul Everett \nI grew up in an artistic\, creative family. From an early age\, I was enrolled in various art classes. I had a cup of coffee at RISD\, which was interrupted by a brief tour with the band I was singing with at the time. Thus ended my higher education in the arts. I’ve been singing for various bands (including Coat of Arms\, Plan 9\, and currently Hope Anchor)\, have toured most of this continent playing music\, and was recently inducted into the R.I. Music Hall of Fame. All the while\, there has been engagement in the visual arts\, as well. \nEarly on\, I painted watercolors and drew the figure and landscape. This grew into a love for printmaking and eventually shifted to a focus on painting. I paint primarily in acrylics\, but will use whatever is at hand for applied and surface media. \nThe work is typically non-representational and abstract\, but is informed by land-patterns and cityscapes with merging vantage points\, as well as an attention to design aesthetic. Nature versus industry is a common thread throughout most of my work. \nI paint at night\, usually in poor light\, and this adds a degree of natural spontaneity and surprise to the process. Painting is a cathartic process for me\, and so each piece conveys its own emotionality. Working in the abstract allows me to engage honestly in the cathartic whim\, or moment.

SUMMARY:Closing Reception & Artist Talk: Umberto Crenca and William Schaff
DESCRIPTION:Join us to celebrate the closing of this blockbuster exhibition of works by Rhode Island-based artists Umberto Crenca and William Schaff. The reception will include an artist talk! \nUmberto Crenca (Bert) is a visual artist\, performance artist\, and musician with a long exhibition and performance history. His work appears in the permanent collections of the Rhode Island School of Design and Newport Art Museums\, and in numerous private collections. \nBest known for being co-founder and longtime artistic director of AS220\, a nonprofit center for the arts in downtown Providence\, Bert is a passionate advocate of the conviction that all people should have access to the means to cultivate and express their creativity. He has received numerous honors and awards for his community work and holds honorary doctorates from Roger Williams and Brown Universities. \nWilliam Schaff has been a working artist for over two decades. Known primarily for his mastery at album artwork\, (Okkervil River\, Godspeed\nYou! Black Emperor\, Mighty Mighty Bosstones\, Songs: Ohia\, etc.) Schaff is also the founder of Warren Rhode Island’s “Fort Foreclosure”. The building\, lovingly named without the least bit of irony\, serves as Schaff’s home and studio as well as home and meeting place for other artists (most notably resident musicians MorganEve Swain\, and the Late David Lamb\, both of Brown Bird). William\, recognizing the importance of art in this world\, recently expanded his community to the West Coast\, where he started “The Outpost”\, in Oakland\, California. William filled his days creating works of art for private commissions\, bands\, exhibitions and his own examinations of human interaction. He has since returned to Rhode Island and can be found\, daily\, working in the Fort. \nWe will have music\, food and drinks on hand! Come see this extensive exhibit and meet the artists!
