IMAGINE THE CHALLENGE OF RUNNING A COMMERCIAL ART GALLERY
FEATURING THE WORK OF DIFFICULT AND ABSTRUSE CONTEMPORARY
ARTISTS IN A MINISCULE TOWN IN A QUIET CORNER OF NEW HAMPSHIRE.
TWO SISTERS, LAURA REDMOND AND BONNIE BENNETT, HAVE
UNDERTAKEN SUCH A TASK IN THE SHADOW OF MOUNT MONADNOCK,
IN THE TINY HAMLET OF DUBLIN.
Their gem of an enterprise, the Redmond/Bennett Gallery, is a clean, meticulously renovated midsize industrial space with pristine white walls, precision crystal lighting and ample space for the showing of muscular contemporary works. They are resolute in their passion to bring new and exciting artists to their corner of New Hampshire.
This show focuses on two artists, painter Stephen Courbois and sculptress Pat
Musick. Courbois has been admired and collected by the sisters for decades. They were introduced to his work while he was the featured artist-in-residence at the nearby Sharon Arts Center.
