In the Palm Beaches and Beyond 

April's 8 Personal Favorites --Palm Beach Arts in Winter

2/1/2017

0 Comments

 

"Glasstress"  - The Boca Museum    -   Boca Raton
January 31 to July 2, 2017

The sculpture glitters and glows; it amazes and confounds.  It's all made of glass--three pieces shown above--which is one reason it hypnotizes  viewers strolling the exhibition. They are part of an initiative by the Fondazione Berengo to encourage the use of glass as artwork, not simply decoration.  The Boca Museum, Boca Raton, January 31 to July 2  --  bocamuseum.org 561-392-2500

See below for names of artists and pieces--all on display in various venues in Palm Beach as explained below....(Sophie Ryder piece in center is sample, not necessarily in the show.)

Lost Bird Project -- Ann Norton Sculpture Gardens - WPB
January 12 to June 28

PicturePassenger Pigeon, Todd McGrain, Grange Insurance Audubon Center, Columbus, Ohio
Five large bronze birds--now extinct--are perched in the main lawn of the historical West Palm Beach landmark home, studio, and gardens of sculptor Ann Norton. These majestic creatures intrigue all visitors and were created by Todd McGrain for "The Lost Bird Project." January 12 through June 28. ansg.org , 561-832-5328 [This edition of the passenger pigeon stature is not in the show.]

RAW Winner Svenja Deininger --The Norton  - WPB
February 4 to April 16, 2017

PictureSvenja Deininger, Untitled, 2014, oil on canvas
The work of abstract painter Svenja Deininger conveys a powerful sense of calmness with complexity. It is this intriguing quality that makes her exhibition entitled Second Chances, First Impressions, so intriguing. Deininger is the sixth artist to be awarded the Norton's RAW (Recognition of Art by Women) award for women artists. Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach  February 4-April 16, 2017    --  norton.org, 561-832-5196

"Pen to Paper" Artists' Handwriting - The Norton Museum
April 18 to July 2

This is a selection of artists' handwritten letters from the Smithsonian's archives of American art. The Norton Museum, West Palm Beach, April 18 to July 2, Norton.org,  561-832-5196

    Dear  Culture Lover: 
        Art  and music nourish our souls and imagination, while deepening  our understanding of the world.   
      We are lucky in that in the Palm Beaches--cities from Palm Beach itself to West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, Delray and Boca--we have a wide variety of art (and music offerings) in "season" and out...
          But where can you find out about the best of these?
    these?    Check out my "Top Picks" for the best art events  of the month in the Palm Beaches... (Eventually we'll add top picks in music too.)
        And read my blog for commentary on these art and music offerings in the Palm Beaches and beyond...

    NOTE: April has a talent for life drawing and sketching; she is the daughter of two professional artists, and has been  writing about art since she  reviewed modern Chinese artist Chen Ting-Shin's artwork while living in Taiwan.
