SUMMARY:"Transformations: Dialogues in Art and Material" Art Exhibition at browngrotta arts
DESCRIPTION:Transformations: Dialogues in Art and Material (May 9-17)\, the Spring “Art in the Barn” exhibition at browngrotta arts\, will take a focused look at materiality\, examining how matter is shaped\, reconfigured\, and reimagined through skilled and thoughtful engagement. The exhibition will feature works by some three dozen international artists exploring a wide range of materials — ranging from clay\, silk\, and linen\, to cotton\, steel\, bark\, stones\, seaweed\, bamboo\, and horsehair — highlighting both the diversity of material choices and the distinct outcomes achieved even when artists work within the same medium. \nThe works on view in Transformations will underscore diversity of process and approaches. The artists demonstrate what curator and historian Glenn Adamson terms “material intelligence\,” a deep understanding of a material’s properties\, histories\, and expressive possibilities. \nVisit the browgrotta arts website to schedule a visit.

SUMMARY:Wilton Library Presents Solo Exhibition “Western Stars” by Redding Artist Robert Mars
DESCRIPTION:Wilton Library’s February art exhibition\, “Western Stars\,” will showcase the works of Redding resident Robert Mars. In this new body of work\, Mars explores the intersection of myth and memory\, drawing connections between classic Western films and the glowing iconography of vintage neon signs\, both of which shaped the mythology of the American West by transforming history into enduring symbols of freedom\, danger\, and rugged individualism. Mars pairs cinematic drama with luminous roadside Americana to examine how these myths persist in cultural memory\, flickering between fact and fantasy\, darkness and light. \nThe “Western Stars” opening reception on Friday\, Feb. 6\, from 6-7:30 p.m. is free and open to the public. The exhibition runs through Friday\, Feb. 27. A majority of the works will be available for purchase\, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the library.

SUMMARY:“Disruptive Narratives” Opening Reception at Wilton Library
DESCRIPTION:Wilton Library showcases artists in the area in their June art exhibition “Disruptive Narratives.” The exhibition\, curated by Tara Blackwell and Jahmane\, invites viewers to explore these visionary artists’ work.

The artists are: 5iveFingaz (Norwalk)\, Tara Blackwell (Stamford)\, Lauren Clayton (Stamford)\, Dooley-O (New Haven)\, Alejandra Gonzalez Zertuche (Norwalk)\, Thalia Hernandez (Bridgeport)\, Jahmane (Norwalk)\, Lily Morgan (Stamford)\, and Sain’t Phifer (Norwalk). \nIn addition\, “Disruptive Narratives: Teen Edition” celebrates the transformative power of youth creativity. It offers a platform for the bold and fearless expressions of a new generation of artists. Join in embracing the rebellious spirit of these emerging voices as they redefine the boundaries of contemporary discourse and offer a fresh\, critical lens on the ordinary. Each teen artist has also contributed to a curated selection of books that resonate with their work and provide deeper insight into the themes of the exhibit. \nThe emerging teen artists are: Clara Eliot (Weston)\, Freya Goldenberg (New Canaan)\, Olive Goldenberg (New Canaan)\, and Lila Malone (Stamford). \nOpening reception on Friday\, June 7 from 6 to 7:30 p.m. is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:“Art Asks” Exhibition and Opening Reception at Wilton Library
DESCRIPTION:Artists often ask to exhibit their works at Wilton Library\, and although there is a Summer Show featuring local contributors\, some artists were unable to participate or do not live within Wilton’s boundaries. This February show features several artists who have made such inquiries. Thus\, the topic of questions regarding art seemed like a natural theme for the show. \nEach artist provided the library with questions about their art: what they hope viewers will contemplate when considering the work\, what they typically ask themself when creating\, or what their own questions are as a viewer. Those thoughts will be shared as part of the exhibit\, and the community is invited to think about their queries when viewing the works. \nThese pieces represent a wide variety of styles\, media\, and subject matter. The artists are: Grace Barbieri (Norwalk)\, Cindy Bernier (Norwalk)\, Lacey Bernier (Wilton)\, Shivani De Bree (Wilton)\, Gini Fischer (Wilton)\, and Christian Mouser. \nAn Opening Reception on Friday\, Feb. 9 from 6-7:30 p.m. is free and open to the public. The exhibition runs through March 14. A majority of the works are available for purchase with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the library.

The new exhibition\, Lives and Landscapes: Art from the Permanent Collection of the Wilton Historical Society\, opening on June 10\, explores highlights of the art collection from the colonial era to the 1970s. Throughout that time\, Wilton has served as inspiration for a wide variety of creators. Whether simply passing through or ensconced as a long-time resident\, pushing the boundaries of artistic expression or fulfilling commercial contracts\, Wilton’s artists produced a diverse body of work. The exhibition runs through October 29. \nMembers of Wilton’s colonial first families\, such as the Lamberts\, Beldens\, and Grummans\, commissioned portraits to help display their wealth and power. The two works on display by itinerant painter Ralph Earl were prized – Earl’s patron’s included founding father Roger Sherman – as were the portraits produced by Gilbert Stuart Newton\, nephew of the renowned Gilbert Stuart. Gilbert Stuart is best known for his iconic images of George Washington. \nOver time\, landscapes rose in popularity. Wilton’s sparsely populated countryside of the late 19th and early 20th Centuries provided beautiful scenery to be captured on canvas and a quiet place to work undisturbed\, while Wilton’s proximity to the cultural hub of New York City ensured a large audience was easily accessible. Artists working in the new Impressionist style\, seeking vistas to be painted “en plein air” populated the area – one of the leaders being J. Alden Weir and his “great good place” Weir Farm. Others like H.G Thomson followed soon after. In the early to mid- 20th century\, a new group of artists emerged. Many congregated in the Silvermine area enjoying both the setting and the proximity to the city. Works produced in Wilton could quickly be placed in any of New York’s numerous museums and galleries. \nTown landmarks\, such as the 1790 Wilton Congregational Church painted in an impressionistic style “en plein air” by Robert Emmett Owen and the 1726 Lambert House by H.G. Thompson\, are beautifully depicted. Other artists represented in the exhibition include Richard Daggy\, sculptor A. Phimister Proctor\, and Hillary Longmuir. \nLives and Landscapes explores Wilton’s artistic legacy through a selection of rarely seen work from Wilton Historical’s permanent collection. These works capture something of the personality of the town through the faces and places depicted. They tell the stories of not only the subject matter of the piece\, but the story of a town. \nWilton Historical Members: Free; Non-members $10
