In 1883, Turner settled in Boston, exhibiting his watercolors and oils at the Boston Art Club and annually at Doll and Richards gallery on Newbury Street. He entered the intimate circle of Childe Hassam and the artistic community surrounding Celia Thaxter at Appledore, where he painted gardens in short, quick, colorful strokes that are similar to Hassam's style. 

Turner's work is represented in many public and private collections including the Boston Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Public Library, Fogg Museum at Harvard University, National Museum of American Art, Worcester Museum of Art, Peabody Museum of Salem, and Denver Art Museum. In recent years, Turner's work has been well represented in several major traveling museums exhibitions including "The Bostonians: Painters of an Elegant Age, 1870-1930" and "Awash in Color; Homer, Sargent and the Great American Watercolor."

JANA MATUSZ, new paintings

11/20/2013

Picture
We have been asking Jana to paint Portsmouth and the surrounding area for many years and this past September she finally agreed living and working in the NH Seacoast. The results are nothing short of spectacular. The subjects are immediately familiar but Matusz allows us to see our historic town as if for the first time. The works are colorful, whimsical, challenging, and dramatic. By capturing the power of the early fall light through high contrast and saturated color Matusz grabs our attention. She then sets us spinning with a vantage point which induces vertigo.

The exhibition will open on December 7th with an Artist reception to follow on Thursday December 12th from 5-7PM. The exhibition will conclude on January 4th, 2014.

Sumenr Winebaum is one of the great citizens of the NH Seacoast, and now after many decades of hard work he is one of it's most accomplished sculptors. This December Winebaum will exhibit new large scale bronze pieces. The Herculean effort of these works is astonishing and the imagery is unmistakably his own.

This work continues the large public commissions completed in recent years, such as the sculptures at York Hospital, Temple Israel, Hartley Mason Reservation, and the soon to be installed Mount Agamenticus.

The exhibition will open on December 7th with an Artist reception to follow on Thursday December 12th from 5-7PM. The exhibition will conclude on January 4th, 2014.
