Welcome January/February 2016
Welcome to our first Artscope magazine of 2016. We hope you had a chance to follow our coverage from Art Basel Miami Beach on Instagram and Facebook in early December; this issue features two reports by Suzanne Volmer from the event and its satellite fairs as well as impressions from three of New England’s top gallery directors — Adam Adelson of Adelson Galleries, Mike Carroll of Schoolhouse Gallery and William Baczek of William Baczek Fine Arts. As we were putting this issue together, we learned that we’ll be returning to the Art Basel Collective Booth in Basel, Switzerland this June and more pressingly, will be represented in the media exhibition area at Art Palm Beach in West Palm Beach, Florida from January 20-24, allowing us to continue our mission to bring New England’s artists, galleries and museums to the attention of audiences and collectors outside the region. Art … [Read more...] about Welcome January/February 2016

Worcester Art Museum Community Day this Saturday, Nov. 14 In our November/December 2015 issue, J. Fatima Martins previews the recently-opened “Hassan Hajjaj: My Rock Stars” exhibition at the Worcester Art Museum, for which artscope is proud to be a media partner. “This Saturday, November 14, Hajjaj will be at the museum to make portrait-photographs of visitors while they are engaged in dance and movement within staged areas decorated with his uniquely designed Afro-Arabic textile patterns and furniture during WAM’s Community Day: Global Art and Music,” Martins writes. “To help guide children, families and playful adults along the metamodern path, Helmut, WAM’s canine mascot, has temporarily changed his identity to Helmut Hajjaj, adopting the artist’s colorful fashion sensibility.” Urban violinist and singer Marques Toliver, who is featured in the exhibit, will be performing, … [Read more...] about Capsule Preview

Thirteen large-scale works in oil by Vermont- and Massachusetts- based David Brewster — who says his creative process has always “sought out a kind of theater, often choosing opulent interiors and sylvan landscapes that are somehow distressed” — are featured in “Power- line” from November 4 through 28 at Chase Young Gallery, 450 Harrison Ave. #57, Boston. “Throughout my development I have continued to revisit these same scenarios, with their heightened sense of drama, movement and collapse, inviting the spectator to cross a threshold to confront aspects of our culture that are evolving or perishing.” Bayda Asbridge, a graduate of Syria’s Tishreen University, had one prerequisite for artists submit- ting work for her “Healing Fibers: War and Peace” group exhibition on view from November 7 through 28 at the Sprinkler Factory, 38 Harlow Street, Worcester, Mass. — fiber had to be … [Read more...] about Capsule Previews
Artup
A Win-Win For Artists, Patients and a Health Center by James Dyment ArtUp is not your average exhibition. The viewers are here for a different reason — they are visiting doctors and health professionals. Jurors who sorted through hundreds of submissions after a prospectus was sent out by local arts organizations curated the artwork. Donors have the opportunity to purchase the work to be permanently exhibited within the hallways and common areas of the Lowell Community Health Center. Some are purchased in memory of a loved one; others are donated by community members who want to support the health center that has proudly provided access to high quality, affordable health care to children and adults of all ages since 1970. “It’s a new model of philanthropy, one that I think a younger generation can get behind,” said Caroline Gallagher, ArtUp webmaster. “The health center … [Read more...] about Artup
