Chasing Light | David Smith
July 21 - September 2, 2023

July 21 – September 2 Opening Reception Friday, July 21st, 5-7pm     Smith’s oil paintings are vividly patterned land and water, and the mix-up of forefront & horizon. He knows how looking downward or askew is a way to find special glimmers. The brushwork is strong and high in contrast, yet leaves space for the viewer to personally interpret the scenes.   “Some of these paintings sprang to life fully formed. Others took on a life of their own as they changed their reasons for existence. There are some I call “Quartets” which are polyptychs with no specific hierarchy within each. They started as paintings which were better off cut up and rearranged. This recycling suggested how to continue…

‘Instinctive Paths’ – Summer Group Show
May 26 - July 15, 2023

As always, in our group exhibits you’ll find a wide range of work from abstracts to landscapes, still lifes, art glass, and sculpture. Featured artists include Bonnie Acker, Elizabeth Allen, Neil Berger, Annelein Beukenkamp, Leslie Fry,…

The different quality of light in the depths of a Vermont winter can often alter the way we see familiar scenes. Falling snow, blanketed landscapes in broad daylight, or subtle glimmers at dusk offer a range of perception. With an adjusted focus we have the opportunity to enjoy muted tones…

Growth Patterns | New Paintings by Jessica Scriver
September 9 - October 29, 2022

September 9 – October 29 Artist Reception: Friday, September 30th, 5-7pm   ‘Growth Patterns’ explores the iterative design of generation and degeneration that humans, and nature for that matter, make to create growth. What works continues, but what we have outgrown evolves. Like a simple-cell brims to the point of bursting, patterns bear until their progress requires breaking. Scriver observes and then teases the line; where, during uncertain times, it is required to bend, blend, or decay to form new inroads. Her paintings respond to where the center cannot hold- using everyday tools and materials, such as food, lasers, trowels, net, and fencing to create borders and paths to intersect or breakdown. An idea, a simple pathway in the brain,…

Oil Paintings May 20 – July 9, 2022 ~ Reception with Artist: Friday, June 17th, 5-6:30 ~   “I’ve loved being an artist all my life. As an illustrator for over fifty years and as a painter for over thirty-five, I’ve been able to find my voice. I’ve also been able to find hope, even now in these profoundly challenging times. In my kitchen I work at a well-worn wooden table. Paper-collages and quilts I can create in any light but I need bright daylight for my landscape paintings of the natural world. Two pottery vases of paintbrushes and a cardboard berry-tray of paints stay beckoning for my landscapes, sheets of paper stay organized for my collages, and bolts of…

Feral Stitching – Four Artists Go Wild
March 25 - May 14, 2022

March 25 – May 7, 2022 ******Exhibit Extended through May 14th!****** Join Us for a Reception Friday, April 29th, 5 – 7pm Beginning in early spring of 2021 four artist friends began a weekly journey into the unexplored topography of textile bringing with them needle, thread, curiosity, and each other’s encouragement.   Sarah Ashe | Janet Fredericks | Kari Hansen | Lily Hinrichsen     There is a wildness in our approach to this age-old art of needlework. With little experience and much enthusiasm about this medium we decided, in our initial gathering, to jump in and follow our instincts. We came to it as painters — free of conventions, unencumbered, and joyfully fierce. We let our minds and needles…

June 3rd – July 10th Reception Thursday, June 3rd, 5-7pm   We are pleased to present an exhibition of Vermont artist Gail Salzman’s new series ‘Shapes & Variations’ opening June 3rd. The works are gouache paint on paper representing abstract images that reference the natural world. This is Salzman’s first series working with gouache and she is as adept at employing it as with her more frequently exhibited oil paintings and monotypes. The common theme has a sense of both staccato and fluidity in the contours and colors that create movement within the compelling, natural formations. Salzman annually spends part of summer painting in mid-coastal Maine, a place that renews her fascination with patterns and flotsam she calls ‘tidal gifts’….

The artwork in this winter exhibit offers a chance to step out of bounds and re-envision a nest that incorporates bold palettes and dimensions. Derbes’ sculpture breaks expected format. Stark’s landscapes are kinetic and free. Woods’ paintings are graphically vivid. Include the work of nine additional artists to create a stylistically diverse selection to enlighten the mind.

Missing Touch
October 16 - November 28, 2020

October 16th – November 28th, 2020 ‘Missing Touch’ features the work of Beth Pearson along with Annelein Beukenkamp, Leslie Fry, and Betsey Garand. Pearson moved away from her home state of Vermont several years ago. The exhibit is a chance to see recent works by the abstract artist whose approach comes across as both playful and finely developed. As Pearson states, “Painting had filled a communication gap for me long before the pandemic hit but with the option for diverse human contact all but completely removed by COVID it became even more a necessity to keep my studio life active. It is a different type of communication I have with painting than I do with another human being but it…

Home Ground
September 4th - October 10th, 2020

Paintings by Susan Abbott September 4th – October 10th, 2020 Opening Reception Friday, September 4th, 5-7pm >> Have a virtual tour <<   “Home is where we lay our head, home is where the heart is. In this year of enforced solitude, home is a place both safe and isolating. If we’ve taken our home ground for granted before, now we see it, in all its faults and individuality, as essential. We’re thankful for wherever we shelter in place. Here in northern New England, our houses are often of a kind: older, made of wood so abundant in our region, small in scale, simple in design. Our homes are sited in the places that define them, whether in small towns,…

Return to the Garden
June 5th - July 10th

Paintings by Kate Longmaid June 5th – July 10th, 2020 Closing Reception Friday, July 10th, 5-7 pm   “Everything that slows us down and forces patience, everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.” – May Sarton Longmaid’s gouache garden paintings have a velvety, matte finish that well represents the tactual softness experienced when immersed in greenery. In this exhibit, her garden series is shown together with her floral still-life paintings in oil. Together they reveal both the process and experience of being among the garden along with the clarity and beauty of the harvest. “Through a contemporary approach to painting, I explore what is revealed in the intimate…

September 6 – October 15, 2019 Opening Reception Friday, September 6th, 5:30-7:30pm Artist Talk Friday, October 4th, 4pm Hird’s work explores cultural mythologies and the roles they play in our societal perceptions of each other. She has spent years moving across cultures listening and collecting stories. She’s fascinated by the way some tales survive and evolve to transfer easily between illusion, reality, myth and metaphor. Hird is particularly interested in how iconic images and forms – familiar to all – can be interpreted differently by viewers in different countries and cultures. Hird’s new work created for this exhibit is the final installment of her new mythology series. For the past decade she has created a colorful new elemental world and…

July 26 – September 3, 2019 Opening Reception with the Artist July 26th 5:30 – 7:30pm   Burlington artist and social activist Bonnie Acker has created paintings of the Vermont landscape for over 30 years. Melding abstraction with a close observation of the land, she has fashioned her own distinctive oil painting style, both evocative and exuberant. Bonnie’s style has continually expanded, evolving from realistic scenes to her present-day impressions of  “…what might be out there.”                 “I am inspired by Vermont’s stunning environment. Painting for me is one-hundred percent optimism. I glean images from real places and people, farm fields and waterways, pollinators and sunrises. The scenes I paint remind me of the efforts being made here…

Elizabeth Allen: Outside Influences through the Seasons
May 3 - June 11, 2019

May 3 – June 11, 2019 Opening Reception Friday, May 3rd, 5:30 – 7:30 pm   “I am drawn to unexpected color in the landscape created by light, atmosphere and the change of seasons. A bit of sunlight splashed on foliage or a river reflecting the surrounding colors influences me to capture it in a painting. While I dance between enhancement and subtlety the painting emerges bringing to life what first caught my eye. Being at one with nature brings a sense of serenity but also sharpens one’s skills of observation of the simplest of nature’s gifts.”   Williston resident Elizabeth Allen received her BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design in 1972. While working in New York City…

This exhibition is a three year collaboration with John Snell. We have hiked to some locations together but mostly we have been on our own to investigate these amazing forms in all seasons and in various parts of the country. We each have an intense eye for minute details in nature…This body of work emanates from hikes taken in Vermont, New Hampshire, Iceland, Michigan, and Italy. These colored pencil drawings and fabric collages highlight the…

Gail Salzman— New Paintings: Unknown Time & Place
August 24 - October 2, 2018

August 24 – October 2, 2018 Reception Friday, August 31, 6-8 pm with an Artist’s Talk at 7 pm “My work explores the dynamic principle of change. The sensual quality of oil paint speaks to this elemental flux, influencing my choice of materials and methods. Using rolling, scraping, and pressure techniques I exploit the unexpected. Drips, translucent color shifts and accidental textures are integrated with the intuitive process. Painting becomes a continual search for visual order amid contradictions. The real excitement comes when I loosen my grip and follow the movement of paint, creating an interplay of the intentional with the unknown.” ———————————————————————————————————— Gail’s abstract oil paintings, known for translucent color and layered surface, have been widely exhibited throughout the…

Kate Longmaid: Bloom
July 20 - August 21, 2018

  July 20 – August 21, 2018 Opening reception on Friday, July 20, 6-8 pm “Bloom” focuses on floral still lifes rendered with Longmaid’s fresh and contemporary approach to the subject. “I am drawn to subject matter that is ephemeral. Surrounded by beauty in the garden or walking in the woods, we reconnect with nature and, in the process, come home to ourselves. Flowers remind us of the transient nature and beauty of life. They beckon us to embrace the moment, to celebrate the beauty around us, to come into bloom. My recent paintings have followed the unfolding of spring in a succession of blooms: daffodils, flowering quince, peonies, iris. I have approached these paintings as portraits, attempting to capture…

Julie Y Baker Albright’s pristine oils on panel are reminiscent of the golden age of 17th century Flemish still life, but render the simple objects found in the casual settings of a 20th century Vermont country home. Several artists explore local and distant landscapes but transform their observations with…

ORIGINS: Recent Paintings by Adelaide Murphy Tyrol

Points of Departure: new paintings by David Smith

 July 21 – September 9 Reception on Friday, July 21, 5:30-7:30 p.m. Smith is an award winning oil painter with a focus on the Vermont landscape. Reviewer Marc Awodey wrote that his work was “Some of the best contemporary landscapes in the area. … What makes Smith’s landscapes more interesting than many others is his affinity for the abstract qualities of a scene. Smith is also a masterful technician, and even though his paintings are generally small, he has a perfect grasp of scale.” There is always an intense observation that comes through in these pieces. In the words of the artist: “A walk through evergreen woods searching for a lost dog, and I couldn’t help being distracted by the…

Perceptions Made Finer: a group show featuring Carolyn Enz Hack
May 26 - July 18, 2017

“Miracles… seem to me to rest not so much upon… healing power coming suddenly near us from afar but upon our perceptions being made finer, so that, for a moment, our eyes can see and our ears can hear what is there around us always.”                                                                                                                       Willa Cather “Death Comes for the Archbishop”   Art does many things besides enhancing our walls including documenting that which our senses perceive, but is often too elusive to retain. Artists approach this in a multitude of ways and when true observation is combined with skill and daring, whether abstract or realistic, art documents “…perceptions being made finer”.  Beginning on Friday, May 26, Furchgott Sourdiffe Gallery celebrates that gift with a group show featuring…

Woods Edge: recent paintings by Joseph Salerno
April 14 - May 23, 2017

Beginning April 14th, the gallery will feature exquisite small oils by Joseph Salerno where the artist’s intention is that ” . . . the immediacy of the paint should reign supreme”. While these paintings are extremely evocative of a forested space both silent and quite spiritual in nature, they are worked in such a way that pure abstraction emerges. The continuation of a 2 1/2 year project, Salerno returned repeatedly to a small stretch of woods near his home where his depth of fascination with his subject evolved into a complex series. “Each new piece owes an obvious debt, and in a way contains, all of the previous ones, often reinterpreting past discoveries in a new light, while carrying the…

July 15 – September 13, 2016 Opening reception Friday, July 15th, 6-8 pm This show features the work of 26 artists currently represented by Furchgott Sourdiffe Gallery and offers both a visual and contextual reflection on where we are today in our 25th year. The title references what the creative process is about: what we as individuals strive for in artistic endeavors as well as in the fine art of living, exemplified by being “in the moment” and seeking out the essence of what is within us and around us. Being present. Surely the source for creating artistic work of substance, no matter how diverse the style or medium. 12► Susan Abbott Bonnie Acker Miriam Adams Elizabeth Allen Annelein Beukenkamp…

And we still are here today…exactly 25 years later! We have shown some of the region’s finest artists over this period and now it’s time to show them off in a big way. We start this celebration of being Chittenden County’s oldest gallery with “Looking Back”, featuring 17 artists whose immeasurable talents graced our walls in the earlier years.     The exhibit will open with a reception on Friday, May 20th 6-8 p.m.,…
