Summer in Manchvegas!

We had perfect weather for the opening reception of "Splash!"
The wonderful artwork was enhanced by the lovely sounds of Tom Pirozzoli and his magical guitar! And we were pleasantly surprised by huge crowd! Over 200 visitors came through the door to enjoy this first for Open Doors Manchester and for Art 3 Gallery--a summer reception. Perhaps a summer gathering is not a bad idea...
Anyway, the show is fabulous, and will be up until September, so come on in and visit!

Splash Time!

"Splash!" is up and wonderful! We have had several visitors to the gallery this week and are receiving great feedback on this summer show. Join us Thursday July 22 from 5:00-8:00 at the opening and artists reception. View the art, sample our always good food and drink, listen to the live music of Tom Pirozzoli, and register to win a gift certificate to XO on Elm, Manchester's urban bistro.
If you can join us on Thursday, we are here Monday-Friday from 9:00-5:00 and "Splash!" will be hanging from July 19-September 24. Looking forward to seeing you soon!!

Colorful Oboes

We love a challenge and when a Concord,NH law firm needed a creative idea to an empty curved wall, we found a wonderful solution. The firm has a varied collection of paintings and were looking for something with additional dimension and color to add to their reception area. These textural pieces are called "Oboes" and are the perfect addition to this corporate space. This midwestern artist uses a variety of fibers and colors to create unusual dimension for unusual spaces, using soft, luxurious fiber in a symphony of color. Works beautifully, don't you think?!

July festivities!

July first already!! Days are winding down for "The Light Fantastic" which will come down next week. We are very excited with all the new work coming in daily for our summer show "Splash!". The show will be on display from July 19-September 24.
Plan on joining us on Thursday July 22 from 5:00-8:00 for an artists reception.
We have a great evening planned--unveiling the new artwork and music by Tom Pirozzoli.Tom is a talented guitarist with a highly original take on popular, jazz, classical and folk music. And Tom also paints! tom captures the essence of light and nature. This piece is titled "Water Lily and Frog" Check out this link for a sampling of Tom's wonderful sound
Those attending our opening can also enter to win a $50.00 gift certificate to XO on Elm, Manchester’s urban bistro featuring a creative, seasonal menu.

here's a small preview...

Mary Graham/Karin Wells

Great article in Monadnock Living magazine that features two of our artists, Mary Graham and Karin Wells. We feel privileged to represent these two wonderful painters, whose pieces always amaze us.
Mary's landscapes represent an interplay of imagination and reality, and are very contemplative and inviting.
Karin's portraits are reminescent of the Old Masters, and are done by commission. Karin's still lifes feature a wonderful luminescence, and evoke an old world feeling.
We have a variety of pieces by both artists here at Art 3 just waiting for you!

Wearable Art

There was a fascinating article in the Wall Street Journal about using art as inspiration for clothing. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703691804575254323401031384.html?mod=WSJ_LifeStyle_Lifestyle_5.
It got us thinking about the art here at Art 3 and what pieces would be fun transformed into clothing.Here are a few of the pieces we think would be amazing. Check out our site and let us know what pieces you would like to wear!
