  • Counterpoints: Colors, Layers, Lines
  • Location: Star Store, New Bedford , Purchase Street, New Bedford
  • Cost: Free admission
  • Contact: University Art Gallery
  • Description: The Exhibition "Counterpoints: Colors, Layers, Lines" at UMass Dartmouth University Art Gallery in New Bedford presents three very different, yet highly compatible women artists. While each of them uses strong, intense colors and the layering of various elements and lines, each artist's work is best described by one of the three words in the exhibition title. However, the almost psychedelic interpretation of colors in Friese's landscapes, the inclusion of photography or other unusual materials in Mandle's critical narratives and the underlying geometry and references to female imagery in Thorton's flowers all share an affinity towards abstraction while inspiring visitors to look closer to discover their inner logic.

The reception with Artist Talks and music will be on Thursday, October 1st from 4 to 6 pm.

Thomas Spencer Ladd teaches photography and acts as a Chair of UMass Dartmouth Design Department.

Ozogoche is a remote high alpine community formed around a complex of lagoons within the Ecuadorian Andes province of Chimborazo. Yoon Soo Lee teaches graphic design.

In her talk, she will share her process of learning and the evolution of gender and race. Bryan McFarlane is a UMass Dartmouth professor of painting and drawing. His recent oil paintings are inspired by microbes in the exploration and expression of immensity and 'minuteness': as they constitute microscopic communities of the human body or cloud formations deeply influenced by his travels and work in China, and concurrently, close work with MIT Oceanographers and 'Design Team' of scientists, artists, composers/musicians and writers researching at EMMAS, BROAD Institute and TERC, funded through the National Science Foundation. A collaboration of disciplines of extremes, fundamental to our physical and spiritual lives, is a recurrent theme in McFarlane's metaphoric and artistic expression. royal hartigan teaches world music at UMass Dartmouth. His sabbatical as a Fulbright scholar included teaching at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumase, doing research on the music and dance of the Asante people, and work on a book on the musical expressions of Asante Adinkra visual designs.

Bi Yuu works with extraordinary artisans from Teotitlan del Valle, designing and implementing a collaborative working method. Additionally, the company contributes to the artisan's local economy, utilizing local working methods and raw material from the area with the long and proud Oaxacan textile. Marisol Centeno (Mexico City, 1985) studied textile design at the Universidad Iberoamericana. Her work blends artisan craft and principles of contemporary design. In 2012, she founded Bi Yuu, a brand specializing in rugs and woven goods with a strong ethic of social responsibility and an aesthetic vision that combines quality with cutting edge design.

  • Formidable: Site Specific Installation by Kat Knutsen
  • Location: Star Store, New Bedford , Purchase Street, New Bedford
  • Cost: Free admission.
  • Contact: University Art Gallery
  • Description: College of Visual & Performing Arts (CVPA) presents a new site-specific installation by recent MFA graduate Kat Knutsen, entitled "Formidable" through November 12, 2015. After receiving her MFA in painting at UMass Dartmouth in 2014, Kat Knutsen (born 1984) began an artist residency at CVPA's Star Store Campus focusing on combining fiber arts and painting in her animations. Her work has since evolved towards installations that combine fiber art, painting, sculpture and music. As she says, "I keep an open mind with the materials I work with and explore the relationships between them. At the moment, my work is a conversation between the two-dimensional, three-dimensional and sound. 'Formidable' is a culmination of my experiences since I arrived in New Bedford in 2012. For me, the object of the jellyfish symbolizes the need to quickly adapt in the changing art world. The challenge of creating a dialogue between the textile objects, painting and music in this site-specific installation parallels my journey in building a career as a young artist today."
