RED 2018 + new workshops + Viewpoint November 2018 Exhibits & Programs Building a vibrant community through visual art, since 1944 “The precise role of the artist, then, is to illuminate that darkness, blaze roads through vast forests, so that we will not, in all our doing, lose sight of its purpose, which is, after all, to make the world a more human dwelling place.” ~ James Baldwin Greetings!

My best, Erin Becker Norma Jean Calderwood Director Cambridge Art Association  Exhibit | RED 2018 On view at the Kathryn Schultz Gallery & University Place Gallery November 8 - December 20, 2018 Opening reception: Thursday, November 8, 6-8pm, in both galleries Artist Talks: November 29 & December 13, 6-8pm each night, at the Kathryn Schultz Gallery Juried by Dan Byers, Director of the Carpenter Center for Visual Arts at Harvard University "Red is an alarm. It is a color that asks—demands—that you pay attention. We are living in a moment of high alert, and danger in this country. For me red signifies this emergency – the degradation of our democracy, of institutions, of empathy.  Many of the art works I saw while jurying this exhibition expressed anger, trauma, and a heightened sense of emotion. The heat of red burned. And yet for many, perhaps most of the works I looked at, red was a character amongst many others, or simply a sharp detail, used to articulate a complex narrative or composition. Red does that – it points things out, makes it difficult to unsee them." ~ from Dan Byer's juror statement Click here for the full list of participating artists and more Pictured above | Paula DeSimone, Day Shift, Monotype with collage, 37x30 inches ; Erica Licea-Kane, Seeing Red, Acrylic medium, acrylic pigment, 16x13 inches Community Collaboration Exhibit | Viewpoints On view at Cambridge College's Town Common Gallery November 2-30, 2018 Juried by Resa Blatman Reception: Thursday, November 15, 6:30-8pm How do individuals and society respond to change?
