Artist Reception: William Evaul - “Whence They Come, Wither They Go”
Dec

Artist Reception: William Evaul - “Whence They Come, Wither They Go”

Bill Evaul - “Whence They Come, Wither They Go”, White-Line Color Woodcuts

Part of a monthly changing exhibit showcasing local artists.

Great Pond Gallery at the Wellfleet Adult Community Center, 715 Old Kings Highway

Month of December, M-F: 8am - 4pm

Reception for Artist: Sunday, December 10th, 5-7 pm

Robert Rindler: Curator, James Connors: Co-Curator & Installation 

Bill Evaul is an internationally recognized painter and printmaker who maintains his studio in Provincetown.  He studied painting and printmaking at Fleisher Art Memorial, Philadelphia, Syracuse University School of Art, NY, Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, NYC and the Whitney Museum of American Art. NYC.  He came to Provincetown in 1970 as a painting Fellow at the Fine Arts Work Center and has maintained his studio there ever since. Evaul’s artworks are in national and world-wide collections from Tel Aviv to Hong Kong.  His work is held by The Library of Congress, The Zimmerli Art Museum, The Boston Museum of Fine Arts, The Provincetown Art Association and Museum, The Cape Cod Museum of Art and several others.

In 1979, while on assignment for Pratt Graphics Center’s Print Review magazine, Bill Evaul discovered a rare technique of woodcut color printmaking that was originated in 1915 in Provincetown.  First known as the “Provincetown Print” because it didn’t fit into any of the known classifications, it had fallen into obscurity, with only a few living artists who had actually practiced the technique. Evaul researched the history of its invention and produced a feature article for the magazine. Following that, he embarked on a self-directed course of study to learn how to make what is widely known today as the “White-Line Color Woodcut.”

This exhibition gives a brief overview of Evaul’s journey, beginning with some of his earliest prints and progressing forward for over 40 years with his development and extension of the practice.  Building upon the techniques of BJO Nordfeldt, Blanche Lazzell, Ethel Mars and the other original members of the Provincetown Printmakers group, Evaul has since made contributions of his own, including more intense layering of colors, more painterly handling of the images, use of oil paint and oil inks in addition to the traditional watercolor, printing on canvas as well as paper, exploring portraiture, and working in large scale. 

Evaul had conducted numerous workshops and classes nationwide. While the images for the prints are typically created based on a drawing or painting, he has found that, coming full circle, his prints can inspire new paintings.

Great Pond Gallery at the Wellfleet Adult Community Center, 715 Old Kings Highway

Month of November, M-F: 8 am - 4 pm

Robert Rindler: Curator, James Connors: Co-Curator & Installation 

Artist Bio:

Raised in South Kent, CT, Naya Bricher is an artist based year-round in Provincetown, MA. She is an alumna of Miss Porter’s School and Smith College, graduating Phi Beta Kappa with highest honors in studio art. In 2013, she was a resident at the Vermont Studio Center. 

In 2014, she joined the Fine Arts Work Center as a staff-in-residence. Currently, she is the Administrative Director at the Fine Arts Work Center and the Administrative Coordinator for the dune shacks of the Peaked Hill Trust. In addition to her creative practice and career in arts administration, she is a fitness instructor offering Zumba classes throughout the Outer Cape.

Naya Bricher’s paintings honor the effervescence of an object-filled life within a content-rich world. She revels in whimsicality and is intrigued by non-essential indulgences, such as desserts, pool toys and novelty pets. Her attraction to intense color, combined imagery and cumulative narrative shape her artworks. Culled from social media, cartoons and dreams, her paintings combine cultural references into a personal form of celebration.

Please join us in celebrating a solo exhibition of new, stunning sustainable work by David Gonville.

Lyle M. Butts: A Memorial Exhibition of a Wellfleet Painter at Great Pond Gallery

Lyle M. Butts: A Memorial Exhibition of a Wellfleet Painter at Great Pond Gallery

Lyle M. Butts (1912-2010)

A Memorial Exhibition of a Wellfleet Painter

Part of a monthly changing exhibit showcasing local artists.

Great Pond Gallery at the Wellfleet Adult Community Center, 715 Old Kings Highway

Robert Rindler: Curator, James Connors: Co-Curator & Installation 

On Exhibit October 2 - 31, M-F: 8am - 4pm

Lyle M. Butts was born in Avon, MA on October 17, 1912.  He left after high school to attend art school in Boston and subsequently became a news photographer for the Worcester Post.  During World War II he worked at Fore River Shipbuilding in Quincy, MA, inspecting ships that were earmarked for the war effort. Following this, he earned his Professional Engineer License and began to build homes in the Easton area where he and his wife Helen had moved.   He later worked for the Foxboro Company in Bridgewater, MA, but retired in 1972 to move to the Cape permanently.  He died on May 10, 2010 at the age of 97.  That’s the bare bones of his life; but there is so much more. 

Lyle loved the Cape and Wellfleet in particular.  He and Helen started coming here in the 1930s and built a number of houses for friends, particularly in the Indian Neck area where he had purchased land in the late 1940s.  After retirement, he sold the Indian Neck property and purchased land on Route 6, where he set up Bay Area Plans to sell blueprints of smaller houses and sheds.   At the same time, his son, Lyle B., purchased a location on Route 6 for his company Bay Sails Marine.  Lyle M. aided his son’s company with engineering drawings, graphic design, and advertising layouts.

Lyle M. never lost his fascination with art, though he never became a professional artist.  He began experimenting, first with watercolor and later with oils.  He loved both landscape and seascape and found New England, and especially Cape Cod,  the perfect setting for expressing this love.  Art was a part of who he was, not just something he did.  He had an inventive mind and a keen power of observation

Lyle B. and I are pleased to have this opportunity to showcase many of his works.  When we were sorting through his possessions, we realized just how much art he had created and how good it was. So it was our desire to share his artistic vision that led to this show.  Lyle M. would have loved it!  We hope you do, too.

If you would like to purchase any of the works designated for sale, please contact me.

Wellfleet Preservation Hall

Join us on Thursday, September 7th at 5 pm for an artist reception celebrating Rachel Brown! This event is free, and all are welcome.

Journey - Photographs by Rachel Brown

Artist’s Statement:

The works included in this exhibition are derived from many years of random travel through landscapes I have been drawn to, some unpopulated, but just as notably, often with traces of human presence still visible. The importance of portals as connecting passages of experience continue the feeling of a journey.

Barbara Gordon -  Exhibit at Great Pond Gallery

Barbara Gordon - Exhibit at Great Pond Gallery

Barbara Gordon - Tales of the Farblunget paintings.

Part of a monthly changing exhibit showcasing local artists.

On Exhibit: Sept 10 - 29

ARTIST’S RECEPTION SUNDAY 10 SEPTEMBER 1-3PM

1:00 Artist Talk with Barbara Gordon

2:00 Q&A with Alzheimer’s Family Support Center of Cape Cod Staff

The process of making art for me is part meditation, part storytelling, and always an attempt to communicate from the heart. The edges of an image define a small, specific piece of the infinite world, at a particular time, from my particular point of view. The space in a painting is a metaphor for existence; the image is a record of my experience. The qualities of the materials-viscosity and color of paint, mark-making and charcoal textures in drawing, color, texture, layering, and surprises in printmaking are all just as important as the images and ideas. Each painting, drawing, print, collage, or book is a dialogue: an interaction between the materials, internal experience, external experience, observation, ideas, and memory.

The paintings in this show, Tales of the Farblunget, combine my responses to certain kinds of landscapes with the story about how I am experiencing living with my husband’s dementia. Farblunget means lost and confused in Yiddish. My husband has Alzheimer's disease. The "conversations" that my lost and confused husband and I have these days are not only excruciatingly repetitive, but they are also often absurd, strange, surreal, and sometimes, especially in retrospect, hilarious: Farblunget. The titles of these paintings are direct quotes from him. This is my way of processing, communicating, and making a record of my experience. No one could imagine what it’s like, unless you could witness it.

Artist Bio:

I have been making art for as long as I can remember. I graduated from Cornell University in 1982 with a BFA in painting, and from Boston University in 1985 with an MFA in Studio Teaching. I taught art in one way or another, including over 30 years in public elementary schools, until I retired from teaching in June 2023. I continue to work in my studio in Foxborough, MA.

Please contact the artist directly with all inquiries about her work. Barbara Gordon: artbarbaragordon.com   bgordon1@mac.com

Opening Reception: Connie Saems - NOT KNOW: A POP-UP

Opening Reception: Connie Saems - NOT KNOW: A POP-UP

Off Main Gallery

Connie Saems - NOT KNOW: A POP-UP

Artists are supposed to be able to talk about their work – we are asked to describe, explain, and provide historical references for the art we create.  But if you were to ask me these questions, I would have to say that I just do NOT KNOW.  I have always wanted to KNOW.  I have always searched for understanding to help me KNOW.  But last year this changed.  To help me cope with NOT KNOWing, I followed a familiar path, mark making. While I did NOT KNOW what I was making, nor why, I let the marks guide me.

NOT KNOW is drawn on a 7 foot long piece of brown craft paper, initially started in 2016 at Castle Hill Art Center while attending a workshop with the artist Lesley Dill.  Each day of the workshop I would take out my stencils and write a word on it. I did NOT KNOW why I did this nor where the idea would take me.  At the end of the workshop, I rolled up the paper and it sat in my closet for 8 years.  Last year, when asked to work on one piece each day for 10 weeks, I brought out this paper.  Once again I added a word.  For those 10 weeks I went to this paper and worked, thinking about a life that had just ended.  Because thread is a material I have used in the past, I looked to it to create a feeling for many of the words.  Shoe polish, ink, acrylic paint, markers and charcoal to add significant aspects to illustrate the meaning of these words. 

At the same time, I started making marks on paper and canvas using acrylic paint and charcoal, still NOT KNOWing what these marks meant, allowing the juice of what was inside to flow.

NOT KNOW has become a metaphor for my life.  Honestly, I still like to KNOW but can be a lot more comfortable when I do NOT KNOW.   

Opening Reception: Saturday, September 2nd from 6 - 8 pm
