Artist Books by Laurel Rogers, Topographical Textiles by Lee Thomson, Still Life Paintings by Steve Levin

Hosmer Gallery at Forbes Library, 20 West St, Northampton MA (20 West St, Northampton MA 01060)

Art

Reception: March 16, 2-5 PM

Steve Levin's still lifes are painted on copper which is cut to shape.  In eliminating the frame, the window which separates the painted image from the “real” world, the paintings themselves become less a view into space than something more like an object in its own right.

Lee Thomson's Topographical textiles explore stitched textile work integrated with laser cut landscapes.

Laurel Rogers creates unique journals and artist books. She uses her own marbled papers, cyanotypes and eco-prints, as well as beautiful design papers from all over the world.
