Greetings! 

Please join us this Saturday, January 17 from 5:00-7:00 PM at the Patchogue Arts Gallery for the opening of Beyond Painting featuring Robert Carioscia, Maureen Palmieri, Alexander Percy, Ted Stamatelos, and Felicitas Wetter. The exhibit will be on display until February 21.

Since the 1400's when painters first stretched fabric over a wood frame the favorite format for paintings has been a rectangle. In the early days of the 20th century some artists stopped seeing that rectangle as a window to look through. Illusion became allusion, RE-presentation became PRESENT-ation as artists sought to make art more real through the manipulation of materials on a rectangular surface.

The five artists in Beyond Painting each begin with a traditional rectangular format. Each one has found a personal way of building a tactile surface.

We hope to see you there, 
The Patchogue Arts Council Board of Trustees
INNATE EXPRESSIONS: CAITLYN SHEA
Caitlyn Shea

On exhibit at the PAC Members Gallery in
Roast Coffee & Tea Trading Co
41 E. Main St., Patchogue 
January 11 - February 22
Reception: Sunday, January 25 from 2:00-4:00 PM

Caitlyn Shea is fascinated by the anatomy, color, and structure of animal forms and their fleeting nature. By using acrylic paint, spray paint, and charcoal, the artist is able to express and defy the boundaries of the body. Her paintings conjure ideas of the sublime and offer a sense of joy through observing the boundless form. While colors reflect the allure of the natural world, Shea notes their underlying chaos and experimental sensibility.
