Live at the Ferrin and SAP – July 31st
Maggie Mailer The Balloonists @ Ferrin Gallery
Exhibition: July 31st through September 18th
Reception: Saturday, July 31st from 4-6pm
The paintings in Maggie Mailer’s solo show, The Balloonists present a post apocalyptic world whose beings live above the earth suspended by balloons.
For The Balloonists, Mailer’s fourth solo exhibition with Ferrin Gallery, Mailer uses her experience as the first resident artist at The Berkshire Museum, Pittsfield, MA. During the summer of 2009, Mailer spent two months painting in the museum. Drawing inspiration through interpretation, the paintings in her show incorporate elements from the museum’s collection of 18th century landscape and portrait paintings. Mailer reflects on her 20/21st century life through the narratives related by her choices of subject matter and content. Portraits of women and children, dreamy landscapes and romanticized views of beauty are offset with symbolic references to distant threats.

Spatial Relationships and Lucky 7 – July First
Spatial Relationships @ Berkshire Museum
Berkshire Museum is pleased to present Joe Wheaton & Susan Rodgers: Spatial Relationships, an installation of new sculpture created specifically for this exhibition. Running July 1 through October 11, Spatial Relationships brings together two Berkshire-based artists who worked extensively in other materials before gravitating toward metal.
Coincidentally, both gained their affinity for working in metal after taking adult education welding classes at local high schools. Both artists will be present for the opening reception on Thursday, July 1 at 5:30 – 7 p.m.
SUSAN MIKULA: American Vale @ Ferrin Gallery
With American Vale, Susan Mikula continues the story first seen in American Device — finding the unromanticized, present, physical beauty of industrial sites and the landscapes they shape.
