In honor of its talented and diverse stable of painters, sculptors, and craftspeople, the William Ris Gallery of Stone Harbor, is presenting A Tribute to 100 Artists.
Each artist will show one or more pieces of work. The varied styles makes for an exciting compilation, creating a balance and rhythm of color, palettes, pigments and perspectives. The works will stretch from landscapes, still life, figurative, realism to abstract and vary in media from watercolor, oil, acrylic, pastel, mixed media, wood to ceramic.
For over forty years Barbara Schreckengaust, founder and director emeritus of the gallery, has offered hundreds of artists from the United States and abroad, the opportunity to present their work. Many of these artists have gone on to long and successful careers. This show is a celebration of them.
Schreckengaust’s inspiration for the gallery was her son William Ris Schreckengaust, who was the director until his passing in 1970. Now her daughter, Mary S. Cantone, is in the position of director and assists her mother in the daily operations of the gallery.
A Tribute to 100 Artists will open with a weekend long celebration starting on Friday, Nov. 27. The show hangs through December.
As fine arts from paintings to ceramics have become increasingly popular as gifts, the gallery now has a Gift and Bridal Registry to accommodate client’s special occasions.
