AVA Gallery and Art Center’s Seventeenth Annual Juried Summer Exhibition: a Green-Themed Show, will be on display throughout the galleries at 11 Bank Street in Lebanon, NH from Friday, July 23 through Saturday, August 28, during gallery hours (Tuesday – Saturday, 11am – 5pm or by appointment.)
AVA’s Seventeenth Annual Juried Summer Exhibition opens with a reception, free and open to the public, on Friday, July 23, from 5 – 7pm. The exhibition is generously sponsored by Mascoma Savings Bank.
The works on display were selected from 363 entries submitted by 224 artists from 86 communities throughout Vermont and New Hampshire. Juror Monroe Denton-critic, art historian and faculty member at the School of Visual Arts in New York City-selected 142 works by 107 artists for the exhibition. Denton states: “I am aware of how… all the artists in this exhibition fulfill the essential role of the visual artist in our society to organize the perception of our world, to focus our attention, and to lead us to a discovery of the underlying truth of this marvelous ecology.”
This year, the Juror’s Recognition Awards were given to Pat Giebutowski of Rumney, NH for her egg tempera work, “Entanglement”; to Duncan Johnson of Hartford, VT for his reclaimed wooden wall sculptures, “Stackhouse” and “Slide”; and to Elizabeth Mayor of Hanover, NH for her woodcut prints, “Half. Just Use It.” and “Right Angles. Not Touching.” The three award winners will receive cash prizes made possible by Mascoma Savings Bank’s sponsorship of this exhibition.
The Annual Juried Summer Exhibition is a unique opportunity to see artwork in a variety of media and styles by artists who will be both familiar and new to AVA visitors (25 of the 107 participating artists are first-time exhibitors at AVA).
The Seventeenth Annual Juried Summer Exhibition is free and open to the public during gallery hours (Tuesday – Saturday, 11am – 5pm or by appointment.) AVA is also open for additional hours on Thursday evenings, from 5 – 7pm throughout the summer. The exhibition will remain on display through Saturday, August 28, 2010.
