Greetings!
Alternate Perspectives of Landscape opens this Saturday at the Patchogue Arts Gallery and features three artists whose artwork derives from the traditional manner of landscape genre painting. From this traditional style, they then take the landscape and make it their own, offering their own uniquely personal visions on the world they inhabit.
Dawn Lee's artistic vision is defined by her passion for nature. Her prints, drawings, and paintings capture an abstracted landscape that emerges through her own personal exploration of the world around her. Dawn is interested in the relationship between the base and the visual realization of form.
Mel Pekarsky's perspective of landscape has developed much over his 40-year career. He made the transition from figural painting to pure desert landscapes gradually. His desert landscapes contemplate the relationship between man and the natural world. The desert, for Mel, signifies the convergence of form and meaning, of abstraction and representation.
Richard Vaux has been labeled many things over his 40-year career. A Formalist, Abstract Impressionist, and Romantic, his "Archetypal Landscapes" have been compared by Irma Jaffe of ARTNews to "moving into an atmospheric, suggestive space that serves as a metaphor for the world of nature." His abstraction of light and illumination contemplate the visible and invisible world around us.
We hope you can join us on November 17 at 4:00 PM for a reception celebrating this wonderful show.

CONNECTING THROUGH OUR STORIES
The Patchogue Arts Council and Herstory Writer's Workshop invites you to join our ongoing memoir-writing workshop, Bridges To Justice. Join men and women from all walks of life as they share their true stories about their efforts to create a more equitable and inclusive world. Erika Duncan, Herstory founder, novelist, and former writer for The New York Times Long Island Weekly, facilitates this free weekly workshop designed to unite and inspire our community. No writing experience is necessary, simply the desire to connect through your story and the stories of the other participants.
The Bridges To Justice workshop meets every Wednesday from 10:00 AM to Noon at the Patchogue Arts Gallery located at 20 Terry Street in Patchogue. It was made possible thanks to the generous support of the Knapp-Swezey Foundation, Briarcliffe College, and the New York State Council on the Arts.
