EASTHAMPTON, MASS. — "Processions," a series of collages by Westminster artist Carrie Gelfan, will be on exhibit at the Oxbow Gallery, 40 Cottage St., Easthampton, Massachusetts, during the month of December. There will be an opening reception for the artist on Friday, Dec. 1 from 5 to 7 p.m. The public is invited.
The collages represent various groups of people on the move. They were completed within the last two years, using mostly materials the artist already had on hand at home, such as packing cardboard, newspaper, New Yorker magazines, sheet music, maps, construction paper, wall paper, and life drawings.
Gelfan studied art at Antioch College in Yellow Springs, Ohio; Cabrillo College in Soquel, California; and at the Art Students League in New York City, where she studied with portrait artist William Draper and with Will Barnett.
Her work has been shown in numerous New England venues, both solo and group shows, and she is currently a member of the Oxbow Gallery.
Regular gallery hours are Thursday to Sunday, noon to 5 p.m. and Fridays, noon to 7 p.m. For information, call the Oxbow Gallery at 413-203-1196 or visit their Facebook page. For more information about the artist, visit carriegelfan.com.
