All Things Blue

Art 3 Gallery has embraced all things blue in honor of the opening of our new exhibit entitled "At the Water's Edge." And our Japanese spruce has not been spared. Come to the opening reception on June 25th at the gallery from 5-8 pm in conjunction with Open Doors Manchester. Or drop by anytime.

At the Water's Edge

On June 22, Art 3 Gallery opens their new exhibit entitled "At the Water's Edge." The opening reception is scheduled for Thursday, June 25th from 5-8 pm in conjunction with Open Doors Manchester. Visit the gallery that evening to view a variety of paintings and sculpture as well as some light refreshment and wine.
Water influences all facets of our lives. Come see how our artists have interpreted this theme: serene oceanside settings, roiling rivers, cascading waterfalls, quiet lakes, and crystal goblets.

Moving Up, With a Bull-It

Lee Forgosh of Art 3 Gallery has facilitated the creation of a memorial sculpture recently erected at the east end of the "Hands Across the Merrimack Bridge" in Manchester, NH. Constructed of tig-welded quarter-inch thick bronze racks and plates by well-known sculptor Chris Williams of Essex, MA, the bull weighs one ton and is visible from Route 293, especially when the sun shines. According to a press release from the Alex Shapiro Charitable Trust, the bull was installed "to commemorate Manchester's entrepreneurial tradition as exemplified by the founders and employees of Granite State Packing Company and Jac Pac Foods."

Oh What a Night

We missed you. The opening for "Diversions" was well attended, but we missed your happy face. The weather was beautiful and many new people came out to visit the cultural sights and places around Manchester. Well over 100 people came to see the new exhibit. Several artists were also in attendance and were happy to talk about their work. This show is open until June 12th. The next reception will be for "On the Water's Edge" on June 25th. Mark your calendars and be there or be square.

Diversions

The new exhibit at Art 3 Gallery entitled "Diversions" opens on April 6th with a reception on Thursday, April 16th from 5-8 p.m. in conjunction with Manchester Open Doors. Park at the gallery and visit us first before riding the trolley to other venues. We have new artwork from many of our artists as well as several new artists on view.

It's So Entertaining, You Tube is Calling

With "Diversions", our new exhibit opening on April 6, we have added some new artists to our lineup and many of our current exhibitors have brought in new work. The following artists have all had their pages updated with new paintings at Art 3 Gallery : Ken Fiery, Cheri Dennett, JoAnne Lussier, Marilene Sawaf, Gail Sauter, Dennis Perris, Stan Moeller, Mary Graham, Ann Legg, Lisa Occhipinti, Tim Craig, and Felicia Hannick. More new work is arriving daily.
We would like to welcome Tatiana Sink to Art 3. She is a wonderful artist able to impart movement to a stationary canvas.
Four times a year we open the gallery for a themed-based exhibit, utilizing artwork from as many of our artists as we can hang on the walls. It is a slow, painstaking process, taking into account the color, subject matter, and size of each piece. More important is how the pieces relate to each other. In addition to a large assortment of 2-dimensional pieces including, oil, acrylic, pastel and watercolor, we also have a wonderful selection of sculpture, glass, and textile.

New Artists

One of the most exciting parts of putting together a new show is receiving new work from artists. For "Looking In/Looking Out", we have new pieces from several artists, including Cameron Bennett, Anthony D'Allesandro and his wife Lesley Campbell, Kate Doyle, returning artist Ed Hicks, John O'Shaughnessy, Gail Sauter, and Andrea Sawyer.

Cameron Bennett's quietly meditative piece "Shadow Light, Melody" emphasizes his classic technique and the precision of his characterizations. Kate Doyle is using charcoal and pastel, a new medium for us to have from her. Her pieces always engage the viewer in an ongoing dialogue. Perennial favorite Gail Sauter has given us a few of her water pieces. Andrea Sawyer's color palette emphasize the hard-edged shadows of her beach pieces.
