You are invited to the Gallery on the Green’s annual Member/Guest
Exhibition showcasing artists who are members of the Canton Artists’
Guild and their invited guests. Members invite artists from their
creative networks to display their artistic talents across a variety of
media including painting, drawings, prints, sculpture, photography,
ceramics, mixed media and fiber art. The result fills the main gallery
with a superb display of local artistic talent.
Upstairs are two solo exhibitions. In the Spotlight Gallery artist Sue
Mullaney is showing Time Pieces: Collages. Whether whimsical or
solemn, each of Mullaney’s collages is a knot in a log line measuring
the dimensions of the medium itself. Concurrently they meditate on
the time spans of a host of inspirations as well: the sedimentary
libraries of ancient rivers; the seasonal cycles of variegated plants; the
remnants and oddments that ornament a family tree. Alchemizing the
found and the imagined, Sue conjures landscapes where the contours
of time are always being calibrated.
Sue Mullaney is an award-winning collagist and photographer; her
subjects include both the natural world and more surreal
environments. She is a retired visual arts teacher with over 20 years
in the New Haven and Cheshire Public Schools. Sue has also taught
at Artsplace in Cheshire and the Guilford Art Center. She is a juried
member of the Connecticut Women Artists, the New Haven Paint
and Clay Club, the West Hartford Art League, and the Canton Artists’
Guild. She exhibits her work frequently, and her art is in private
collections in New England, Florida, Oregon and California.
Retirement has provided the opportunity to concentrate on her art
and celebrate her relationship with nature.
In the Upstairs Gallery William Kluba will exhibit New Work
2025-2026. This new body of work consists of paintings created in
both gouache on paper and acrylic on canvas. The work is based on
nature abstracted, color, and spacial compositional structures
continuing on a path he began in 2019. The gouache work is more
intimate and jewel like, while the acrylic works have a more physical
presence. Kluba views his work as a dialogue between himself and his
inner intuitive connections.
William Kluba has been a professional artist for five decades. He is
Professor Emeritus at Tunxis Community College, having retired in
2016 from his position as program coordinator of art and gallery
director for 39 years. He is author of, “Where does art come from, how
to find ideas and inspiration” published by Allworth Press NYC, 2014.
He has been exhibiting nationally since 1972 and his work is in
collections of the Springfield Art Museum in Springfield, Missouri; the
Library of Congress; and many other institutions around the world.
An opening reception will be held on Saturday, March 21 from 6pm to
8pm. The reception, including refreshments, is free, and the public is
warmly invited.
