Inside/Outside – The Artists of Rogers Point

On Display September 2- October 1 in the Levenson Room

Meet the Artists Reception: 
Saturday September 6 | 2 – 4 PM 
Levenson Room

Please visit the Levenson Room at the Portsmouth Public Library during the month of September to view the abstract art of the Artists of Rogers Point group. This group of local artists is interested in, and loves all forms of abstract art. They work in many mediums to express and explore abstract ideas. After forming following a workshop entitled “Towards Abstraction” with well-known seacoast artist, Tom Glover, the group has been meeting monthly for almost 2 years for abstract critiques with their mentor.

The work brought together at the library represents the artists’ individual movement from earlier representational work towards abstraction in their work -- including varying degrees of abstraction.  As Tom has reminded the group, “Andrew Wyeth said he was an abstract painter, and Robert Motherwell said all paintings are abstract”.

Members of the group include Barbara Adams, Maryhop Brandon, Deborah Cartwright, Susan Fried, Inger Gregory, Tracy Matheson, Julie Serrano, and Pamela Traver.

All are welcome to a “Meet the Artists” Reception on Saturday, September 6, 2-4 PM. The artists will say a few words and answer questions. Light refreshments will be served. Free and open to all. No reservations needed.
