STEVEN SIEGEL: 35 PIECES
1315 MASS MoCA Way, North Adams, MA
OCTOBER 14 - NOVEMBER 25
Artist Reception October 14, 5 - 7 PM
Steven Siegel, 35 Pieces, mixed media, 35 panels, each 24 x 24 inches
CYNTHIA-REEVES presents an exhibition of Steven Siegel's 35 Pieces, a site-based installation of mixed media panels with an accompanying film of the same title. 35 Pieces is informed by Siegel's contemplation on the nature and complexion of personal history--made more so by his inclusion of his wife, Alice, as the film's narrator. Located on the campus of MASS MoCA at 1315 MASS MoCA Way, the show opens with an artist's reception on Saturday, October 14 from 5 - 7 pm, and runs through November 25.
CURRENT EXHIBITIONS
THOMAS JACKSON: EMERGENT BEHAVIOR
1315 MASS MoCA Way, North Adams, MA
THROUGH OCTOBER 7
Thomas Jackson, file folders, site-specific installation, 2017
CYNTHIA-REEVES presents an exhibition of prints and a site-specific installation by artist Thomas Jackson. The hovering installations featured in his ongoing series of photographs are inspired by self-organizing, "emergent" systems in nature such as termite mounds, swarming locusts, schooling fish and flocking birds. The images attempt to tap the mixture of fear and fascination that those phenomena tend to evoke while creating an uneasy interplay between the natural and the manufactured and the real and the imaginary. At the same time, each image is an experiment in juxtaposition. By constructing the installations from unexpected materials and placing them where they seem least to belong, Jackson aims to tweak the margins of our visual vocabulary and to invite fresh interpretations of everyday things.
The Barn at 28 Main St. Walpole, NH
THROUGH OCTOBER 21
Mabel Poblet, Tearwater 1 and 2, photography, mirror fragments and wire, 2017
Mabel Poblet is an award-winning artist from Cuba who is currently representing her native country at the 2017 Venice Biennale. Her exhibition of site-based works at CYNTHIA-REEVES in Walpole, NH is currently on view through October 21. In her personal journey over a decade of creative work, Poblet has focused on the importance of representing the sea in her creations. Patria and Madeja, two recent works, feature the oceans as metaphors for transit, utopian journey, illusion, longing, and memory - underscoring the sea as both the boundary of her native island, and its liberation.
