Megan McNaught at NK Gallery Exhibit

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

Instructor Megan McNaught is in an exhibition of paintings and drawings entitled Agglomeration alongside artist Luke Buffenmeyer this February at NK Gallery in Boston Feb. 3 – 24. Opening Reception: Friday Feb. 3, 5 – 8 pm

Visit the NK Gallery site for more information.

Agglomeration merges MacNaught and Bufenmeyer’s individuality to create something bigger than themselves as a collaborative experiment to see what combining two different approaches to image making would yield.

McNaught’s work has been focused on formal issues of image making using strategies similar to game playing as building blocks to tap into her creativity.  Her tightly planned structures using repetitive pattern, mark making, and shapes result in a complexity that creates a dynamic geometry that takes on a life of its own.

NK Gallery
450 Harrison Ave. #61
Boston MA 02118
Gallery Hours: Wed- Sat 11 am – 4 pm

Johnny Adimando at 17 Cox

Thursday, January 19th, 2012

Johnny Adimando, Untitled (Moon Texture), 2011, silkscreen on paper, 6 x 8 inches

This January, Montserrat’s new printmaking faculty member and artist Johnny Adimando will attempt and fail at the impossible: to reach the moon through conventional methods of paper folding and printmaking. At its apogee the Moon is about 406700 km from the Earth, while a single sheet of paper is about 0.01 cm high. It would take approximately 1,520,640,000 stacked pieces of paper to reach the Moon or a single sheet of paper folded on itself 42 times could reach the Moon’s surface.

Please join Johnny for a reception for his 16 ft printstallation in the newly renovated 17 Cox Gallery! RSVP on the Facebook Event Page!
