SIDNEY SIMON: THE GIFT​​

The curators had a wonderful time selecting from an assorted body of over 325 submissions of artworks. The art bursts with vibrant color or depicts the opposite, a tighter range of subtle variations or lack of color altogether.

The subjects are varied and diverse as one could imagine. Not surprising, when the call for art  presented an unspecific theme. A Celebration of Autumn attracted all kinds of works of art  which was not difficult to choose from. Come and see the variety and the rhythms of the exhibition.

A total of 72 works of created by 23 artists.

Many artists are showing for the first time at Blue Hill; Diane Rosen, Edna Levanson Segal, Joanna First, Joyce Byrnes, Lynne Furst Kalish, Mark Symczak (late), Max Krance, Melissa Sgroi, and Sophie Donatelli.

The unique biographies of the artists reveal their accomplishments across a wide spectrum of expertise.
