CURRENT EXHIBITION
THROUGH March 11
The Arts Council of Greater New Haven presents an exhibition
of works by Connecticut artists Susan Tremaine and Marjorie
Gillette Wolfe at Gallery 195 at NewAlliance Bank, 195 Church
St., 4th floor, New Haven. The exhibition will be on display
during bank hours from December 8, 2010 through March 11,
2011. An artists’ reception is scheduled for
Tuesday, January 11, from 5 to 7pm. The public is
invited to attend.
The exhibit will feature paintings by Susan Tremaine and photographs
by Marjorie Gillette Wolfe. The artists share similar sensibilities
and views on subjects that are often abstractions of nature,
making for a soothing and captivating juxtaposition.
Susan Tremaine’s work has been featured across Connecticut
and in her native Canada, and she has placed many of her works
in private collections. Her educational background is in both
art and interior design, giving her a unique perspective on
the interplay of color, texture and design. She developed
an affinity for contemporary art while curating art programs
for various large corporations during her work in the field
of interior architecture. Tremaine later moved to Connecticut,
where she ran an interiors business and worked in lighting
design with her husband. She now focuses primarily on her
work as an independent artist. She currently works at two
painting studios, in the Mushoka lake district of Ontario,
Canada, and in Norwalk, CT in the Wilson Avenue Loft artists
building.
Marjorie Gillette Wolfe has exhibited her photography and
participated in juried exhibits widely across Connecticut
at galleries including the Kehler Liddell Gallery in New Haven,
The Bushnell in Hartford, The Atlantic Gallery in Hamden,
as well as in galleries in Vermont, Rhode Island and New York
City. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Rhode
Island School of Design and her Masters of Arts in Liberal
Studies from Wesleyan University. She discusses her work:
“My primary subject, landscape, needs to have both an
emotive power and an inherent architecture so that I can separate,
but not remove, the geometry of a place from its allure. I
am especially attracted to minimal landscapes that confound
perspective and allow for a contemporary view of what can
be a well-worn subject.”
