Newburyport Art presents Featured Artist: Heidi Caswell Zander
Newburyport Art (NAA) presents Coastal Blues, a featured artist exhibition by Heidi Caswell Zander. Join Caswell Zander for an opening reception on Friday, November 8th from 5:00 to 7:00pm.
Coastal Blues features 25 pieces in oil and cold wax inspired by Caswell Zander’s upbringing on Cape Ann and connection with nature. Caswell Zander writes that “since childhood, art has been my favorite form of communication.” As a child, she spent her summers in adult Plein Air groups, gaining appreciation and sharing enthusiasm for the process from the initial creation to the finished product being hung on a wall. Her work evolves through mark making, each stroke capturing the energy and passion of transforming an experience into a visible realm for the viewer. She has long embraced Mattise’s statement about art, wanting her work to be “like a gentle armchair at a day’s end” for the viewer.
Caswell Zander’s work has been exhibited widely in the US and Europe, and is held in Canadian, American and European collections.She is the recipient of numerous awards including the Hemphill Travel Grant and Sjoden Artists Grant. She is also the owner of the Tidal Edge Gallery in Rockport, MA.
Running concurrently in the Sargent and Hartson galleries is the Members’ Fall Juried Show, on view until November 17th.
The galleries are free and open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 11:00am–5:00pm and Sunday from 1:00pm–5:00pm. Newburyport Art is closed on Mondays. The ground-floor Hills Gallery has an accessible entrance. More information, as well as an online gallery is available at newburyportart.org.
