Touchstones: Sculpture Participating with Place
Description:
"We are touched by what we touch. We are shaped by what we shape. We are enhanced by what we enhance." The Great Work -- Thomas Berry Sculpture invites us to more fully engage with our environment. It helps focus our attention on nature's materials and forms. Sculpture has presence and enlivens a setting. As we interact with sculpture, our senses are heightened and we become more acutely aware of the intricate beauty of our places. -- JL Image: Thin Green Line in granite and moss by Gary Haven Smith Opening Reception Sunday June 12, 5:00-7:00 p.m. Ethel H. Blum Gallery: How does nature nurture us? Sculpture made from granite, marble, moss, mica, and wood brings nature into our lives and explores the numinous quality of matter.

Beauty and the Beast: Nature Images
Description:
Beauty and the Beast: Nature Images August 18 - October 12, 2003 This exhibit features nineteen color and photogravure prints of New York-based photographer Barbara Yoshida, whose work has been shown throughout the world. Since 1996, six artist's residencies in National Parks, including Acadia National Park, have provided an opportunity for Ms. Yoshida to reexamine her relationship with nature. Her large-format images capture the diversity of landscape on the planet and the various forms of life that it supports, and reflect her conviction that the preservation of nature with a camera is inextricably linked to the preservation of various species and their habitats. In other words, the medium fits the message. Front: Jawbone, Lilies, and Maple. 14" x 11" Silver Gelatin Print. Courtesy of Barbara Yoshida [show more]
