View Artists in Their Natural Habitat

Posted for Annmarie Sculpture Garden and Art Center

January Exhibit: Artists In Action: Jan. 17 through March 3, 2015

A few months each year Annmarie Garden transforms its awe-inspiring Main Gallery into studios for artists. The creation of art fills the exhibition space and the action becomes the art itself.

Visitors have the opportunity to appreciate, and sometimes experience, the artistic process as well as their own interactions to the artistic product.

 Annmarie seeks artists working in any media to submit proposals to set up a working studio space in the Main Gallery for 1-2 week periods. The studios accommodate each artist’s  supplies and equipment.

Selected artists have a serene retreat and experimental space to develop new works. Visitors are exposed to the working process of art, from concept to finished work.

The artists interact with visitors informally, discussing their work and their process, making the exhibit an ideal experience for young artists and other creators to immerse themselves in the work of creation and to network with other artists.

The selected artists also receive the opportunity to display and sell their work.

Visitors are invited to become engaged in the project. All artists are asked to create a hands-on experience for guests. Some options include inviting guests to experiment with the artists’ materials and/or process. Other opportunities include a collaborative work of art that guests will help create.

Through this exhibition, artists gain exposure, sell artwork, and work in a free studio space in a beautiful setting. It is both an opportunity for artists to retreat and immerse themselves in their artwork and also pursue opportunties to participate in future group or solo shows that may be awarded.
