Gallery Talk and Performance – Woody Giessman

Words and music by Woody Giessman

Oct. 4, 7 to 9 p.m.

As part of its “Rhythm and Hues: Art Inspired by Music” exhibit (now through Oct. 12), the Belmont Gallery of Art (BGA) presents a special gallery talk and performance “Words and Music” with artist Woody Giessman at 7 p.m. on Oct. 4.

Giessman, the special featured artist in “Rhythm & Hues” is the former drummer for the Del Fuegos, founder of Right Turn Recovery and survivor of a near-fatal brain aneurysm two years ago. Woody will talk about his life and work, art-making techniques and inspiration–while also treating attendees to a live music performance. The event is free and open to the public. Cider and sweets will be served.

Helen Morse – Gallery Talk

Please Join Us for This Special Artist Talk!

Note the change in date to Jan. 31! Hours are still 2-4pm.

Helen talks about her art.
Helen talks about her art.

Gallery talks are a unique opportunity for us to experience art on an entirely different level. You won’t want to miss this one. Helen Morse will be sharing her journey: insights, perspectives, and process during this very personal, compelling talk.

The BGA’s current exhibit features more than 50 photographs that capture and reveal Morse’s heart and mind through several decades worth of work.

Helen Morse takes fine arts photographs which are windows into her own heart and mind; some are manipulated, some are not, but all represent her unique view of the world. In recent years Morse has also begun to paint on canvas as well. Her paintings may be separate from her photographic work, but they flow from the same emotional and aesthetic wellspring. Don’t miss this opportunity to look back at 40 years worth of meaningful, beautiful, and sometimes provocative work that has shaped the world of this artist.
